AI has had a significant impact on UX in recent years, allowing designers to automate parts of the design process. This has resulted in an increase in efficiency, allowing designers to go through many more iterations on the road to the perfect design. An example of this can be found in the rise of AI wireframe generator tools, which have become a staple in UX design.
Wireframes function as the blueprint of the final product, establishing the best layout and user flow before diving into the details, and AI has only made this easier. Rather than manually drawing out layouts screen by screen, designers and even non-designers can write a prompt, upload a diagram or an image, and instantly get completed wireframes to work from. This will free up designers to instead focus on user needs and creating intuitive user experiences. While there are many such AI tools with many design industry leaders like Figma developing them in droves, one software that stands out is Visily. To keep this comparison practical and balanced each tool was evaluated using the following criteria:
The observations below are based on hands-on testing, of each platform using similar prompts and workflows, with their strengths and limitations noted based on their intended audience. Using these criteria, the summary below highlights where each tool stands out and where it falls short.
Editor’s note: This article was updated in December 2025 by LogRocket author Neil Nkoyock to include a side-by-side comparison of Visily with other leading AI wireframe generators, along with updated feature coverage and real-world usage insights. New sections highlight where each tool excels, where it falls short, and how Visily fits into today’s broader AI wireframing landscape.
Visily is an all-purpose AI-powered UI design tool that has been dominating the market in recent years. Its popularity stems from its intuitive interface and advanced AI features, resulting in it being marketed as the UI design tool for non-designers. It offers four different pricing plans, factoring in a wide variety of needs and financial means.
It offers four different pricing plans depending on project needs:
Visily has use cases in four key design areas, and each use case offers its own AI-powered solutions for a streamlined design process:
After a couple of days with Visily, I can see its potential, but parts of the interface may confuse the non-designers it targets. The layout felt unclear at first, though it became easier to navigate after a few minutes:

Visily’s AI features are still its strongest advantage. You can access them through the “Add” button on the left-hand menu, a small AI button at the bottom of the frame, or the V shortcut. Once you get comfortable with the shortcuts, the overall experience becomes much more intuitive.
Visily’s AI prompting UI works like most others: it opens on the right side, lets you describe what you want to create, and provides prompt examples to guide you. It can generate flowcharts, landing pages, and full dashboards quickly, but the quality of these outputs depends heavily on how specific your prompts are.
Where Visily’s AI works and where it falls short:
Where Visily still adds value:
UX Pilot is an AI-powered UI generator, built to help UX specialists, product teams, and founders turn ideas into editable wireframes and user flows at the click of a button. It can generate high-fidelity wireframes, streamline the UX design process, and save an average of 15 hours per project with its AI tools.
It offers four different pricing plans depending on project needs:
I was impressed with UX Pilot’s UI generation capabilities while testing it out. Unlike Visily and some other tools on this list, UX Pilot is more of an AI creation workspace than a traditional design tool. Rather than providing basic tools for manual design, it focuses on AI-generated content creation through prompting. You start with the typical AI layout: a prompt input box in the middle and a functional menu on the left. Once the first prompt is created, the center turns into a canvas where your wireframe appears, while the left-hand menu becomes the control hub for all the app’s AI features.
Here’s what the layout offers:
The overall layout is intuitive and easy to understand within the first few minutes of using it, and it is very much AI-first. Unlike Visily, which includes the design and layout controls you’d expect from a traditional design tool, UX Pilot relies on prompting for almost everything. Editing is possible in only two ways: selection edits, which let you prompt changes to a chosen component, and manual edits, which allow simple adjustments like text changes, sizing, margins, and other very basic tweaks. Anything more in-depth requires exporting your wireframe into a more robust tool like Figma, which UX Pilot does support, but only on a paid plan.
Overall, the AI outputs were impressive and noticeably stronger than what I got using the same prompt in Visily. This makes UX Pilot great for creating multiple iterations and quickly cycling through different ideas. For beginners, it’s an excellent tool for visualizing concepts without needing design skills. For experienced designers, its prompt-centered structure may feel limited because manual control is minimal. Its pricing model also puts many advanced AI tools, including image-to-design generation, behind a paywall, making it less accessible for some. Ultimately, UX Pilot works well as a tool for fast iteration and visualization, and serves as a strong companion to a standard design tool.

Uizard is a UI/UX design tool that uses AI to generate wireframes and mockups from both text and image prompts. This includes being able to generate wireframes from screenshots of other UI, or even hand-drawn wireframe sketches. Additionally, includes traditional prototyping and collaboration features while doing away with vector-based product design and instead focusing on a drag-and-drop editing style.
It offers four different pricing plans depending on project needs:
The platform has a pretty familiar UI, looking like many of the web-based design tools you’ve probably encountered, and reminded me a bit of Canva.

Although Uizard’s AI outputs (at least with Autodesigner 1.5) were less sophisticated than those from UX Pilot or even Visily, that doesn’t hold it back too much. Its manual design tools are stronger than the other two, allowing you to refine the outputs with greater precision. The only issue would be how well you refine the AI output, which depends on the user’s design skills, which, as a non-designer, aren’t very high.
The highlight of this platform, though, is AI tools like the screenshot and wireframe to design tools, which impressed me when I used them. I tested them by first uploading a low-fidelity wireframe sketch, which the AI then turned into a high-fidelity mockup. It wasn’t perfect, but it would be more than enough to suit my needs and quicken my design process. I also uploaded the UX Pilot landing page to see how it would reproduce it, and it was nearly perfect, which is great for users trying to base their designs on other platforms they’ve seen.
Then there’s the AI design review tool, which has two main features:
Overall, Uizard strikes a decent balance between design flexibility and AI-aided design, but many of its more powerful AI tools, like Autodesigner 2.0, sit behind a pay wall, which would require significant investment for design teams. With stronger AI outputs, Uizard could become better for non-designer use, but as of now, its robust manual design capabilities make it a good all-purpose AI-based UI/UX design tool.

Mokkup AI is a business intelligence (BI) dashboard wireframe generator. The platform focuses on a very specific but very important area of product design: BI dashboard wireframing. These dashboards are essential across all applications and platforms, as they use charts, graphs, and maps to display key performance indicators (KPIs). These KPIs drive business decisions and help them grow, so how they are displayed and how easy they are to understand are super important.
Mokkup uses AI to generate financial reports, marketing dashboards, sales analysis metrics, and other BI dashboards from natural language prompts. These wireframes can then be exported to BI data visualization tools, such as Power BI and Tableau. The platform offers 500+ templates across 9 categories, such as marketing, sales, finance, and more.
It offers three different pricing plans depending on project needs:
Mokkup AI is designed to help users create a usable dashboard quickly and efficiently. Its interface reflects this focus, with a simple left-hand menu for all major functions and a large canvas that takes up the rest of the screen. The platform is straightforward to pick up, with minimal learning curve, making it easy for beginners and experienced users alike to start building dashboards:

The interface is simple and easy to use, providing a fast way to build dashboards despite some limitations in advanced functionality.
The AI outputs themselves were very clean and usable, but not particularly modern or innovative, focusing more on functionality and sticking to traditional BI dashboard design conventions. This isn’t necessarily an issue, though, since for many businesses, dashboards don’t need to look amazing as long as they’re clear, well-structured, and readable, and Mokkup does a great job of that.
For designers who want more modern outputs or creative freedom, however, this tool would be limiting, as it has only a limited number of manual design features. The platform makes up for it with its standout feature: the ability to export wireframes as fully functional files for BI tools such as Power BI and Tableau. This makes it very easy to go from idea to a working dashboard, which then greatly speeds up development. Designers who want to modernize the outputs do lose this advantage, though, as they would have to export this design to other design tools like Figma to make the changes they want.
Overall, Mokkup AI is a powerful tool within its specific niche, and with more modern layout options and design features, it could dominate the market.
Pros:
Cons:
Figma needs no introduction, but what many people might not know is that the platform has its own AI wireframe generation tool called Figma Make. The platform makes it possible to create an interactive prototype using either a pre-existing design or from scratch with a simple natural language prompt. It offers a point-and-prompt feature that lets you select an item and directly prompt the changes you want. Additionally, you can upload image and design files to work from to create fully functional prototypes.
Figma Make is offered at all paid plan levels, with differences only in the number of AI credits provided per plan:
Figma Make has impressed me as an avid Figma user, especially with what it has achieved using AI. The platform keeps a simple, familiar layout while integrating AI tools that enhance the design workflow.

The interface is straightforward and intuitive, combining the familiar Figma layout with powerful AI features that make design faster and more interactive.
To really put the platform to the test, I uploaded the BI wireframe created in Mokkup and asked it to modernize it and switch to a purple color scheme. This was done almost instantly, incorporating all the KPIs and data visualizations from the original design while modernizing it. It was even added in interactive animations, which I didn’t ask for.
The AI outputs were on par with those of UX Pilot, and it can be argued that they went a step further by creating an interactive prototype rather than just a static wireframe. Additionally, the design-to-code feature makes developer hand-off really smooth and clearly shows why Figma is the industry leader it is.
Overall, Figma Make is a great tool, as one of many in the Figma tool belt. It’s a well-thought-out, intuitive product that integrates the powerful Claude 3.7 Sonnet AI model to generate a great prototype and code. However, if you’re just a casual user looking to create some basic wireframes to visualize your ideas, then investing in the platform wouldn’t really be necessary, and you would instead be better served using some of the other tools on this list.
On the other hand, if you’re a user who can accommodate Figma’s pricing ecosystem or a multi-functional design team, then this would be the tool for you. Ultimately, Figma Make would be a great tool for senior designers working on big projects or non-designers willing to put in the money, time, and effort to use it as effectively as possible.

AI wireframe generators have already started changing the way designers and product teams approach the early stages of the design process. From brainstorming to iteration, these AI tools make it possible to instantly create layouts, dashboards, and even prototypes by using a simple natural language prompt. They also make it easier for non-designers to take part in the design process, which used to require a specialized skill set. These changes are important because while these tools won’t replace human creativity and the experience of seasoned UXers, they will speed up the time it takes to go from concept to finished product.
Visily and the other tools on this list are prime examples of that. While they vary in AI sophistication and design feature integration, all of these tools share one thing in common. They use AI to speed up repetitive tasks, generate multiple versions, and provide a good basis from which a seasoned designer or casual user can start.
Ultimately, AI tools can have varying results and different targets. Tools like UX Pilot and Figma Make stood out for their amazing AI outputs, while other tools like Visily and Uizard stood out for their AI-aided design elements useful for non-designers. Regardless of their type, AI tools should ultimately be used as design partners rather than design solutions.
Incorporating them into your workflow as a tool for ideation, visualization, and prototyping, rather than using them to replace the design process in its entirety, will help design teams strike a balance between speed and quality. Thereby making sure that the final product still reflects human creativity and innovation.
