ToolPricingKey features
GessoThis tool

A design canvas any AI agent can build on

Free tier
  • **Agent-Built Designs**: Ask an AI agent to create social posts, carousels, posters, flyers, websites, or app screens, and watch it build them on the canvas. The agent checks its own work and leaves real layers you can edit.
  • - **One MCP Address for Every Agent**: Connect Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, ChatGPT, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, OpenCode, or any MCP-compatible agent through a single address. The built-in terminal comes already connected.
Recto

A visual design canvas for your coding agents

Free tier
  • **Four Creation Modes**: Design UI such as websites, landing pages, and dashboards, plus Motion, SVG, and 3D work, all in one app.
  • - **Automatic Agent Detection**: Recto detects coding agents installed on your computer and lets you run their command-line tools inside the app. Supported agents include Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode and Grok Build. You can also work with multiple agents on the same design.
Thrum

Coordinate multiple AI coding agents from one inbox

Free tier
  • **Cross-tool agent messaging**: Agents on Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, OpenCode and other supported tools message each other and you, so you stop copying answers between windows.
  • - **Coordinator agent**: You make requests in plain language. The coordinator routes work, answers what it can, and brings you only the decisions that need your input.
HeroUI

Accessible UI components for React and React Native

Freemium
  • **75+ React Components**: Covers forms, overlays, navigation, data display, and feedback, including Table, Modal, Drawer, Toast, Tabs, and Autocomplete. Most standard app interfaces are covered out of the box.
  • - **React Native Library**: 37 native components, such as BottomSheet, Dialog, Menu, and InputOTP, give your mobile app the same design language as your web app.
Cherry Blossom

AI agent that turns plain-language specs into PCBs

Free tier
  • **Prompt to PCB**: Describe a board in a sentence or two, such as a 4-channel motor driver with current sensing, and Sakura builds the schematic and layout. It asks you before it starts the PCB layout, so you stay in control.
  • - **Real Parts and Datasheets**: Sakura searches for real components and reads their datasheets as it designs. The 3D view uses real part models, so what you see matches what you would order.
Render

Cloud platform to deploy apps, databases, and AI agents

Freemium
  • **Multiple service types**: Run web services, private services, background workers, cron jobs, and static sites on one platform. Your whole stack lives in one place.
  • - **Managed postgres and key value**: Get managed Postgres databases and Redis-compatible Key Value stores, plus persistent disks for services that need to keep files. You skip running your own data layer.
OpenMail

Give your AI agent its own email inbox

Freemium
  • **One Inbox per Agent**: Each agent gets its own address instead of a shared inbox or forwarding rule. A single API call or CLI command creates it.
  • - **Real-Time Inbound Delivery**: New mail reaches your handler through webhooks or WebSocket, so your agent reacts right away without polling. The OpenClaw plugin keeps the WebSocket inside the gateway, so you don't need a public URL.
Novu

Open-source notifications and AI agent messaging

Freemium
  • **Embeddable Inbox Component**: Add a prebuilt, real-time in-app inbox to your React, Next.js, or Remix app. It ships with unread counts, tabs, filters, snoozing, localization, and custom styling.
  • - **Multi-Channel Workflows**: One trigger routes a notification across Inbox, email, SMS, push, and chat. You can add conditions, delays, and fallbacks so messages reach users on the right channel.
Mobbin

Searchable library of real app and website UI references

Free tier
  • **Large Screen Library**: Browse just over 600,000 screens from real mobile apps, web apps, and websites. New content is added weekly, so your references stay current.
  • - **Multi-Step Flows**: Study end-to-end sequences like onboarding, checkout, account setup, and subscription. You see how a full journey works, not just a single polished screen.
