A MockFlow account keeps your boards, spaces and AI credits in one place and lets you work with your team. Every new account starts on the free Basic plan, with no credit card required.

## Benefits of a MockFlow account

A free account gives you a full visual workspace that keeps your work:

- **Boards that stay:** your boards are saved to your account and organized in spaces, ready whenever you come back.
- **Every brainstorming format:** sticky notes, mind maps, flowcharts, cloud diagrams, moodboards, storyboards and more, with board components, templates and UI kits.
- **Wireframing and prototyping:** design app and web screens on the board, with WireframePro, the dedicated UI design tool, included.
- **Mida, your AI on the board:** 100 AI credits every month and AI skills for design and brainstorming. With MockFlow Bridge, Mida can also run on your own Claude Code.
- **Sharing:** invite reviewers to view and comment, or share a board with a public link.
- **MockFlow Clippy:** the Chrome extension that clips images and videos and turns any web page into a wireframe.

The free Basic plan is for personal and nonprofit use. Paid plans add more boards, more AI credits, editors for your team and features for commercial work. See [MockFlow pricing](https://mockflow.com/pricing/) for a full comparison.
