What is MockFlow?
MockFlow is turning wireframing into prompt-to-plan generation and a bridge to agentic coding tools.
MockFlow (WireframePro + IdeaBoard) is rebuilding a whiteboard and wireframing suite around generative AI. Recent releases turn a single prompt into complete multi-artifact workspaces — wireframes, flowcharts, architecture diagrams, database schemas, Kanban, Gantt — and add an export path that converts wireframes into structured prompts for agentic coding tools.
What is Recraft?
Recraft rents the models and owns the Design Kit — that split is the whole strategy.
Recraft Studio adds third-party generation models on a steady cadence, each announced to the same template: model name, plan, credit price. Seedream 5.0 Pro, Nano Banana 2 Lite and Gemini Omni Flash all landed that way, and Seedance 2.5 is the newest. Around that catalogue Recraft is building the parts a model host cannot supply — the Design Agent, which produces a coordinated set of brand assets saved as a reusable Design Kit, and in-canvas vector editing that closes the round trip to an external editor. Simplified Chinese joined the interface languages in July.

MockFlow
0.0DESIGN
MockFlow is turning wireframing into prompt-to-plan generation and a bridge to agentic coding tools.
◆ Current state
MockFlow (WireframePro + IdeaBoard) is rebuilding a whiteboard and wireframing suite around generative AI. Recent releases turn a single prompt into complete multi-artifact workspaces — wireframes, flowcharts, architecture diagrams, database schemas, Kanban, Gantt — and add an export path that converts wireframes into structured prompts for agentic coding tools.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is collapsing the design-to-plan-to-code path: AI plans and generates the full set of artifacts a project needs, then hands them to Figma or to agentic coding tools like Claude Code. AI is also becoming a composable canvas element (AI prompt box, recipes) rather than a single feature.
◆ Prediction
Expect MockFlow to deepen the design-to-code handoff — richer export to agentic coding tools and tighter Figma round-tripping — and to push AI generation across more board types, grounded in the multi-screen and export-to-prompt features already shipped.
Recraft
6.3DESIGN
Recraft rents the models and owns the Design Kit — that split is the whole strategy.
◆ Current state
Recraft Studio adds third-party generation models on a steady cadence, each announced to the same template: model name, plan, credit price. Seedream 5.0 Pro, Nano Banana 2 Lite and Gemini Omni Flash all landed that way, and Seedance 2.5 is the newest. Around that catalogue Recraft is building the parts a model host cannot supply — the Design Agent, which produces a coordinated set of brand assets saved as a reusable Design Kit, and in-canvas vector editing that closes the round trip to an external editor. Simplified Chinese joined the interface languages in July.
◆ Where it's heading
Two speeds. The model catalogue turns over quickly and is largely undifferentiated, since the same third-party engines are available to anyone willing to pay for them. The proprietary layer moves more slowly and is where the direction is: a persistent Design Kit changes the unit of work from one asset to a house style, and vector editing makes generated output a starting point rather than a final answer. Video is now on the same footing as image in the catalogue — 30-second clips at 480p or 720p, priced per generation rather than per second, which is a shift from how earlier video models were metered.
◆ Prediction
The obvious next step is pulling video into the Design Agent, so a Design Kit covers motion as well as logo, palette and type. Nothing in these entries indicates it yet, and the credit pricing suggests video is still being treated as a separately metered catalogue item.
