# Connect Lovable apps to the live web with Parallel

Parallel is now live in Lovable.

Starting today, Lovable users can easily create apps that tap into Parallel’s full AI web search platform to gather and synthesize relevant, fresh, and reliable information from across the open web.

## Bring the live web to every app

Parallel makes developing with web data easy, and with Lovable, it’s never been simpler to build production-ready apps and services powered by information from the web:

- Automate web search for **quick facts,** such as what happened in the news yesterday
- Perform **deep research**, such as mapping a company’s investments over decades
- **Enrich** a list, for example, to score leads based on ICP fit
- **Extract** a specific line of text, such as a quote from a movie on a review website

## Just ask Lovable

To get started, tag @parallel in the chatbox or simply ask Lovable to add Parallel. You’ll be prompted to make the connection in just two clicks.

You can also add Parallel via Lovable’s [Connectors](https://lovable.dev/dashboard?connectors=&subtab=connector-detail&connector=parallel) directory. Find Parallel, and add the connection. Choose the managed option and you're done. Usage is billed through your Lovable credits, or you can bring your own API key from the [Parallel platform](https://platform.parallel.ai/home).

Then, simply tell Lovable what to build. For example: "Add a research panel that produces a cited competitor summary for any company name". Lovable handles everything under the hood so you can focus on building something great.
