- Best for: UI screenshots, landing pages, app screens
Generate code from design
Use Design to Code when you already have a design and need production-oriented UI code.

Convert slides or NotebookLM PDFs
Use NoteSlide when your source is a NotebookLM PDF, image-based slide deck, or flattened presentation that needs to become editable.

Automate with APIs
Use the API Reference when you need screenshot analysis, PDF conversion, image tools, background removal, or MCP integration from another system.
