Banani
Text-to-UI AI copilot that generates editable multi-screen prototypes from prompts
- WEB
What Banani does
Banani generates editable, multi-screen UI prototypes from a plain-language description, and can also extract a visual style from a screenshot or Figma link to guide new screens. It supports follow-up prompts to iterate on a generated screen and exports to Figma or code (via MCP) on paid plans. Positioned for PMs, founders, and non-designers who want a fast high-fidelity starting point without needing full design skills.
What you get: Text-to-multi-screen UI generation, Screenshot/Figma style extraction, Agent mode for visual consistency, Follow-up prompt iteration, Figma export, MCP/code export (Plus+).
Typical jobs: generate a multi-screen app prototype from a text description; extract a competitor's visual style from a screenshot and reuse it; iterate on a generated screen with follow-up prompts; export an AI-generated UI to Figma for a designer to refine.
Worth knowing: Free tier credit limits are among the tightest in the category and offers no Figma export; several users report credits being consumed on failed/empty generations.
What users complain about: For every user who calls Banani a lifesaver, another reports burning through 20-30 credits on empty-screen generations, being charged anyway, and getting no response from support. (User reviews aggregated)
Pricing and plan limits
Verified August 2026| Plan | Monthly | Annual (per mo) | Limits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | Free | Free | 12 monthly credits, 3 daily credits |
| Plus | $12 | $1.67 | 100 monthly credits, 10 daily credits |
| Pro | $30 | $4.17 | Unlimited credits |
| Enterprise | not disclosed | n/a | Custom |
Where it wins
- Can extract visual style directly from a screenshot or Figma link, not just generate from a blank prompt
- Agent mode aims for more visual consistency across screens than typical one-shot generation
- Aggressive annual pricing (Plus at ~$1.67/mo billed yearly per some sources, effectively a steep discount) makes paid tiers cheap for individuals
- MCP/code export on Plus+ tiers connects output to coding agents
Where it falls short
- Free tier's 12 monthly / 3 daily credits is one of the tightest among competitors, and has no Figma export at all
- Users report burning through 20-30 credits on empty or failed screen generations and still being charged
- Free version has limited template variety and limited complex prototyping support
- Very young product with a small team, so support responsiveness reportedly varies
