What it does

Visily is an AI-powered wireframing and UI design tool aimed squarely at non-designers, with a genuinely free-forever plan rather than a capped trial. Its text-to-UI and screenshot-to-design generation cover the same basic job as competitors like Uizard, but Visily adds built-in diagramming — flowcharts, sitemaps, and wireflows — so a team can map out a process and design the screens for it in the same canvas.

What sets Visily apart most is its two-way Figma integration: designs can move from Visily into Figma for detailed refinement, or an existing Figma file can be pulled into Visily to keep iterating with AI. That makes it a practical on-ramp for teams who want to start fast and cheap, then hand off to Figma once a concept is worth polishing.

Ideal users

  • Non-designers and small teams who want a genuinely free tool for wireframes and mockups
  • Teams that need diagrams — flowcharts, sitemaps, wireflows — alongside UI screens in the same board
  • People who want to move fluidly between Visily and Figma rather than commit to one or the other
  • Product teams mapping out an idea before it's worth involving a dedicated designer

Who should avoid it

  • You need production-grade, pixel-perfect design — plan to finish the work in Figma afterward
  • You expect Figma-level prototyping depth or component systems
  • You need heavy AI generation volume — the free tier's monthly credit allowance is modest

Key features

  • Text-to-UI and screenshot-to-design AI generation
  • A two-way Figma plugin for exporting Visily boards to Figma and importing Figma files back into Visily
  • Built-in diagramming for flowcharts, sitemaps, and wireflows alongside UI screens
  • A library of over 1,500 pre-built UI templates
  • Real-time collaboration with commenting and shared project boards
  • CSS inspection for developer handoff, with HTML markup export in development

Pros / Cons

Pros

  • Free-forever Starter plan with unlimited projects, not just a time-limited trial
  • Two-way Figma interop is smoother than most competitors'
  • Combines UI mockups and process diagrams in a single tool, which most rivals don't
  • Low barrier to entry for people with no design background

Cons

  • Free tier's AI credit allowance (300/month) is lower than some competitors'
  • Design depth and pixel-level control fall short of Figma
  • Code handoff is currently limited to CSS inspection, with HTML export still rolling out

Pricing

Free — $14/editor/month (Pro)

The Starter plan is free forever, with unlimited projects, 2 editable boards, and 300 AI credits/month. Pro is $14/editor/month with more credits and advanced templates — annual Pro subscribers received a limited-time bonus of 6,000 credits/month as of late 2025, double the standard amount. Business and a custom Enterprise plan add team-scale features and support.

Typical workflows

  • A small team sketches a product idea as a wireframe using text-to-UI, adds a flowchart to map the user journey, and exports the whole board to Figma for a designer to refine.
  • A non-technical founder imports an existing Figma file into Visily to iterate on quickly with AI, then exports the changes back to Figma for developer handoff.

Integrations

  • Two-way Figma plugin for exporting and importing designs
  • CSS inspection for developer handoff
  • Export to image and PDF formats

Privacy & security notes

Visily states it does not use customer design data to train its AI models and does not share designs with third-party AI platforms, with additional privacy protections available on paid plans. Confirm current terms directly if you're uploading confidential or client work.

Frequently asked questions

Is Visily actually free, or just a limited trial?

Visily's Starter plan is free forever, not a time-limited trial — it includes unlimited projects, though only 2 editable boards and 300 AI credits per month. Paid plans raise those limits and add more advanced templates and features.

Can I move designs between Visily and Figma?

Yes, in both directions. Visily's Figma plugin lets you export boards from Visily into Figma for detailed refinement, or import an existing Figma file into Visily to keep iterating with AI-assisted editing.

Does Visily do more than UI design?

Yes — alongside wireframes and mockups, Visily includes diagramming tools for flowcharts, sitemaps, and wireflows, so a team can map a user journey and design the screens for it in the same board.

Does Visily train AI models on my designs?

According to Visily's stated policy, no — it does not use customer design data for AI model training and does not share it with third-party AI platforms, with extra privacy protections on paid plans.
