Balsamiq

Balsamiq is a browser-based wireframing and prototyping tool that helps product, tech, and business teams sketch low-fidelity screens, turn them into clickable prototypes, and align on what to build before development begins. It replaces the need to switch between separate whiteboarding, documentation, and prototyping tools by keeping the early design process in one place.

Core capabilities include drag-and-drop wireframing from a component library, AI-assisted drafting and editing from text descriptions or screenshots, one-click clickable prototype generation, and real-time collaboration with comments and reactions on shared boards. Boards can be embedded in Jira and Confluence, shared via Slack, Notion, and Linear, and exported to PNG, PDF, or HTML. A Balsamiq MCP server connects boards to AI coding tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor for reading, editing, and building on projects.

Balsamiq is aimed at product managers, engineers, founders, business analysts, and consultants who need to communicate ideas without design expertise. It is packaged as a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, followed by three seat-based editions—Starter, Teams, and Enterprise—priced per editor per month with annual billing. Reviewers are unlimited and free on all plans; only editors pay. Each plan includes a monthly allotment of AI credits, with on-demand top-ups available, and higher tiers add more projects, SSO with SAML, data storage region selection, and premium support.
