Every pick sourcedHonest trade-offsFor humans and agents

Updated June 2026

Ranked Shortlist

Screenlane · screenlane.com

A paid, video-first library of recorded user flows and app screens — Screenlane merged into Page Flows in July 2024 and its domain now redirects there.

Price: Paid — no free tier. A $2.95 non-refundable 3-day trial auto-converts to a recurring plan: $39/quarter or $99/year individual; $199/year team (3-10 seats). [1]
Library: Live first-party counters show ~172,000 screenshots, ~10,600 annotated flow videos, and ~20,000 emails — but flow coverage spans only 300+ apps (older "20,000+ apps / 79,000 screens" copy is stale).
Agent access: No MCP or public API. No SDK, export, Figma plugin, or browser extension; the only export-like feature is manual in-product batch screen download.

Dribbble · dribbble.com

A long-running design community and freelance marketplace where designers post portfolio "shots" — mockups and concept work — for inspiration and hiring.

Price: Freemium — genuine free tier to browse and post; Pro is annual-billed at $4/mo (Lite), $8/mo (Standard), and $99/mo (Plus), with monthly rates reportedly higher. [25]
Library: Large but undisclosed as a live total (16M+ users; ~2.5M shots cumulatively as of 2017, no current counter). It's community-uploaded mockups and concept shots, not an archive of real shipped products.
Agent access: No official MCP; the official v2 API is publishing/owner-scoped (a public "popular shots" endpoint exists but is approval-gated, 403 otherwise). Only third-party wrappers/scrapers (Zapier, Apify, viaSocket) can browse it.

Behance · behance.net

Adobe's creative-portfolio and discovery network where designers publish full project case studies across every creative discipline.

Price: Freemium — free core tier (no subscription); Behance Pro is $9.99/mo (7-day trial), mainly to drop the 15-30% marketplace fees and add analytics plus bundled Adobe Portfolio. [56]
Library: Behance self-reports 50M+ members and tens of millions of projects, but these are full creative case studies across all disciplines, not a deduplicated catalog of individual app screens.
Agent access: No official MCP or working public API; Adobe shut the old API down (dev portal and v2 endpoints now error out). Only unofficial third-party scraper MCPs exist on Apify (paid, unsupported).

Awwwards · awwwards.com

A web-design awards platform and curated gallery (since 2009) that recognizes high-craft production websites via jury and community voting.

Price: Freemium — browsing is free; paid memberships run Basic ~$6.7/mo and Professional ~$13.8/mo (billed ~$165.60/yr), and submitting a site for an award costs $65 each. [91]
Library: Curated award winners and nominees, not a raw archive; reportedly ~15,000 sites submitted/yr with under 365 named Site of the Day. Filterable by ~24 categories, 130+ technologies, and 100+ countries.
Agent access: No official MCP or public API; the only programmatic access is unofficial third-party Apify scrapers (from ~$1–3 per 1,000 results) that scrape the site and aren't endorsed by Awwwards.

SiteInspire · siteinspire.com

A hand-curated gallery of full marketing and portfolio website designs, running since 2009, browsable by style, type, subject, and build platform.

Price: Free to browse and save. The only paid offerings are business-facing, listed on the Sponsorship page: Premium Profiles $250/mo and Job Opportunities $100-300/mo; advertiser rates are private. Viewers never pay. [116]
Library: Over 8,000 curated websites (per-category counts corroborate, e.g. Agencies 2,343, Typographic 2,076). Each entry is a single site with representative imagery and credits, not a multi-screen flow archive.
Agent access: No official MCP or public API; no developer docs or endpoints. The only MCP touching it is an unofficial third-party scraper (notsointresting's "Design Inspiration MCP") that hits the public site, not an official API.

Land-book · land-book.com

A hand-curated gallery of real, live marketing websites and landing pages that designers browse for inspiration.

Price: Freemium — free tier; PRO is $9/mo billed monthly, or $72/year (an effective $6/mo) billed yearly. [137]
Library: Vendor-stated 20,000+ curated full website designs plus 200,000+ categorized sections (Hero, Pricing, Testimonials, Footer, etc.), updated daily. These are web pages, not app screens.
Agent access: No MCP or public API. The official MCP registry returns nothing, no developer docs or endpoints exist, and the site is human-browse-only.

UI Garage · uigarage.net

A free, handpicked gallery of specific web and mobile UI patterns (form validation, empty states, checkout) — now discontinued, with a shutdown notice in place of the library.

Price: Free — it was always free with no paid or Pro tier. As of June 2026 this is moot: the site is no longer an operating product. [153]
Library: At its peak roughly 6,600 handpicked, mostly single-screen UI patterns (one directory rounds this to "nearly 7,000"). The catalog is no longer browsable on the live site.
Agent access: No MCP or public API. No first-party API or programmatic export ever existed (confirmed across five sources); it was a human browse-and-search gallery only.

Godly · godly.website

A hand-curated, free gallery of bold, motion-heavy, award-tier website designs (marketing pages, product sites, portfolios), curated by Daryl Ginn since 2021.

Price: Free. No paid tier; the site is funded by sponsorships, and the only opt-in is a free email newsletter. [168]
Library: "Over 1,000" hand-picked live sites, added at a deliberate "multiple per week" pace. Each entry links to one live site, not a multi-screen capture set.
Agent access: No official MCP or public API; only an unofficial third-party wrapper (LobeHub's "browse_godly" tool) that scrapes the site against its stated no-AI-crawl policy.

Feature Matrix

CriterionScreenlaneDribbbleBehanceAwwwards
Best for Use Page Flows (formerly Screenlane) when a human designer or PM wants to study how well-known products sequence whole user journeys as annotated, video-recorded flows rather than static screenshots. [1]Use Dribbble when a human designer wants broad visual inspiration, trend-spotting, and aesthetic mockups (branding, illustration, motion) — not when an agent needs API/MCP access to real, complete product flows. [25]Use Behance when a human designer wants deep, multi-disciplinary inspiration with full project case studies, or wants to publish a portfolio and get discovered for work. [56]Use Awwwards when you want human-curated inspiration from the cutting edge of animation-heavy marketing and portfolio websites, or an agency chasing the credibility of an award — not when an agent needs queryable design references. [91]
Pricing Paid — no free tier. A $2.95 non-refundable 3-day trial auto-converts to a recurring plan: $39/quarter or $99/year individual; $199/year team (3-10 seats). [1]Freemium — genuine free tier to browse and post; Pro is annual-billed at $4/mo (Lite), $8/mo (Standard), and $99/mo (Plus), with monthly rates reportedly higher. [25]Freemium — free core tier (no subscription); Behance Pro is $9.99/mo (7-day trial), mainly to drop the 15-30% marketplace fees and add analytics plus bundled Adobe Portfolio. [56]Freemium — browsing is free; paid memberships run Basic ~$6.7/mo and Professional ~$13.8/mo (billed ~$165.60/yr), and submitting a site for an award costs $65 each. [91]
Library depth Live first-party counters show ~172,000 screenshots, ~10,600 annotated flow videos, and ~20,000 emails — but flow coverage spans only 300+ apps (older "20,000+ apps / 79,000 screens" copy is stale). [1]Large but undisclosed as a live total (16M+ users; ~2.5M shots cumulatively as of 2017, no current counter). It's community-uploaded mockups and concept shots, not an archive of real shipped products. [25]Behance self-reports 50M+ members and tens of millions of projects, but these are full creative case studies across all disciplines, not a deduplicated catalog of individual app screens. [56]Curated award winners and nominees, not a raw archive; reportedly ~15,000 sites submitted/yr with under 365 named Site of the Day. Filterable by ~24 categories, 130+ technologies, and 100+ countries. [91]
Platform coverage Covers iOS, Android, web apps/sites, and email. Its differentiator is full-screen recorded videos of complete flows (onboarding, checkout, upgrade), not just static screens. [1]Broad by discipline — web, mobile UI, product/UX, branding, illustration, motion — but mostly single hero screens and concept mockups; full flows and empty/error/loading states are largely absent. [25]Web plus official iOS and Android apps. Content spans branding, illustration, photography, 3D, motion, and UI/UX, but everything is mixed together rather than filterable by platform or app. [56]Production websites only. Its "Mobile & Apps" category is marketing websites that showcase apps, not native iOS/Android screens, in-app flows, or email designs. [91]
MCP / API No MCP or public API. No SDK, export, Figma plugin, or browser extension; the only export-like feature is manual in-product batch screen download. [1]No official MCP; the official v2 API is publishing/owner-scoped (a public "popular shots" endpoint exists but is approval-gated, 403 otherwise). Only third-party wrappers/scrapers (Zapier, Apify, viaSocket) can browse it. [25]No official MCP or working public API; Adobe shut the old API down (dev portal and v2 endpoints now error out). Only unofficial third-party scraper MCPs exist on Apify (paid, unsupported). [56]No official MCP or public API; the only programmatic access is unofficial third-party Apify scrapers (from ~$1–3 per 1,000 results) that scrape the site and aren't endorsed by Awwwards. [91]
Agent readiness Not usable by an AI agent. No API or MCP, content sits behind a paywall, and its flagship asset — flow videos — is the least machine-readable format; an agent cannot query it for screens or flows. [1]Low. No sanctioned programmatic path lets an agent search or read public shots — only scraping or unofficial third-party MCPs with ToS and reliability risk. Dribbble is built for human browsing in a web UI. [25]Low. With no official API or first-party MCP, an agent can't search or fetch references in a supported way — it must either render and parse HTML or rely on brittle, unofficial scrapers. [56]Low. No official API, MCP, or machine-readable export and no developer docs, so an agent can't query it natively — only scrape the public site or route through unsanctioned third-party Apify actors. [91]

Why Lazyweb is different

Lazyweb is not trying to be just another gallery. It is built so agents can run competitive analysis, inspect real references, and read app-tree context and screen-version history when deciding what to build.

The honest limitation: Lazyweb does not yet have web-app flows, and the UI is less advanced for humans who only want manual filtering.

  9. 9. Free Mobbin and Appshots Alternatives for UI References (Medium)
    Blog · medium.com · Representative mild-praise + comparison: 'decent' free Mobbin alternative valued for tag/filter granularity. Note the qualifier 'decent' rather than strong enthusiasm. “Decent free alternative to Mobbin. Each design is tagged so you can filter by screen type, elements on the screen, and product categories.”

    Official product page · pageflows.com · Establishes current product, positioning for designers/PMs/developers, platform coverage (iOS/Android/web/websites/email), '300+ apps' video flows, '100,000+ designers'; no API/MCP mentioned.

  21. 21. Goodbye UI Movement (founder Ramy Khuffash, Rocketgems)
    Blog · rocketgems.com · Founder-reported (not independent) sentiment on the rebrand; useful for context but low weight as objective opinion. Also documents the cease-and-desist behind the original rename. “User feedback was surprisingly positive; subscribers expressed genuine disappointment about UI Movement's end and encouragement about Screenlane's direction.”
  22. 22. Top 5 Websites for Free UI Design Inspirations From Real Products (Medium)
    Blog · mehedihas.medium.com · Representative listicle framing it as a free alternative to premium Mobbin (~$8/mo) and citing its Product Hunt/subscriber traction as validation. “rose to fame after being upvoted over 1,000 times on Product Hunt. It now has over 25,000 subscribers”

  28. 28. Dribbble API v2 — Shots endpoints
    Official MCP/API docs · developer.dribbble.com · Shows Shots endpoints operate only on the authenticated user's own shots (GET /user/shots, /shots/:id CRUD); no public/search/popular shot endpoint.

    Official MCP/API docs · developer.dribbble.com · The official Changes/changelog index documents that the Popular Shots endpoint is restricted to select approved applications and returns 403 otherwise.

    Hacker News · news.ycombinator.com · Thin HN thread but a substantive comment frames Dribbble as an entrenched middleman taking a 'tax on hiring.' “I don't see them as having any real creation of value other than a tax on hiring people in that area.”
  51. 51. What I Learned Co-Founding Dribbble (HN discussion)
    Hacker News · news.ycombinator.com · Surfaces the 2019 precedent of banning a prominent critic; commenters split on whether community-flag suspensions are legitimate or silencing dissent. “Not sure I'd consider any company good that bans (highly followed) users who disagree with the owners or criticize the site on other social networks.”

    Blog · medium.com · Influential 'is it dead' critique: Behance rewards aesthetics over product thinking, feels stuck in 2020-2022 trends, breeds sameness. Recommends Mobbin and Awwwards instead. “The platform has become more of a gallery of pretty pictures.”
  63. 63. My Behance Projects Are Getting Very Low Views and Not Appearing in Search — Adobe Community
    Other · community.adobe.com · First-hand visibility complaint plus a dismissive moderator response ('ask at the proper place'), illustrating the reach + support gripes. “My recent projects are getting very low views and don't appear in search or the Discover section, even though I use proper tags, detailed descriptions, and stay active.”
