Thanks to @Lovable.dev , Sabrine Matos built a website that helps women in Brazil run quick background checks using just a name and phone number!
After seeing yet another case of violence against women in 2025, Sabrine decided to create atool that could help women stay safer. While the information already existed publicly, there wasn’t an easy way to access it. That’s when she created Plinq, a platform designed to make background checks fast, simple, and accessible.
The craziest part? She built the entire platform without knowing how to code thanks to @lovable.dev 👀
