We researched Kombai's official pricing, terms, product pages, help pages and outside reviews. We haven't used Kombai ourselves, so this is a research-based review, not a hands-on test.

Who it’s best for

• Frontend developers who want an agent that reuses their own components, tokens and design system.
• Designers and founders who want to explore several page designs before any code is written.
• Teams turning Figma files into React or other frontend code.

Who should skip it

• Probably not the best fit for non-coders who want a finished, hosted app from a chat prompt, or for backend-heavy projects.

How it works day to day

This part draws on Kombai’s own product pages, help center and documentation, read October 31, 2026 (listed under Sources). We haven’t used Kombai ourselves.

Describe the page or point Kombai at a Figma file, explore a few design variations on its canvas, then let it write the code into your repo and test it in the browser before you review and merge.

Key features in use

• Design canvas with variations and redesigns
• Repo-aware coding agent for 400+ frontend libraries
• Reuse of components, tokens and hooks from your repo, npm or Storybook
• Native Figma import
• Autonomous browser testing
• Choice of AI models with an auto router

Setup and learning curve

Sign up free, then install the desktop app or the VS Code or Cursor extension and open your project.

Integrations

VS Code, Cursor, Figma, Storybook, npm packages, Git and MCP integrations.

Support

Community support on Free; email support on Pro; priority and dedicated support on Team and Enterprise.

Real-world use cases

• Turning a Figma design into React code
• Redesigning a landing page
• Building UI in an existing design system
• Fixing accessibility and SEO issues in a frontend

What it costs

Prices checked October 31, 2026, from Kombai’s own pricing page unless noted. Prices change often, so check the official page before you buy.

• Free: $0 a month for 300 credits a month (150 on sign-up plus 50 a day), with credit rollover up to 0.5x.
• Pro: from $20 a month for 2,000 credits a month, rollover up to 5x, email support and no AI training on your data; higher Pro tiers go up to 110,000 credits.
• Team: $40 per user a month, up to 20 seats, with a shared credit pool and centralized billing.
• Enterprise: custom pricing with SSO, audit logs and dedicated support.
• Yearly billing saves 20%; prices in USD (official pricing, checked October 31, 2026).

What we like

• A real free plan (300 credits a month) to test it before paying.
• Built for frontend work: it reads your repo, Storybook and npm packages and reuses existing components.
• Works inside VS Code and Cursor or as a desktop app on macOS, Windows and Linux.
• Product Hunt shows 4.7 out of 5 from 12 reviews, with praise for clean, compile-ready code (checked October 31, 2026).

What to watch for

• Credit-based pricing makes heavy months hard to predict; you may need a higher Pro tier or top-ups.
• Its terms say fees paid are non-refundable.
• Some reviewers mention imperfect visual fidelity, font mismatches and weaker multi-page workflows.
• Independent reviews are still few (12 on Product Hunt); its "700K+ installs" and benchmark gains are its own claims.

The fine print

• Subscriptions renew automatically for the same term unless cancelled, per its terms.
• Its terms are governed by California law.
• Kombai uses outside AI models; Pro and higher plans say your data is not used for AI training.
• Code it writes still needs your review before it ships.
• Legitimacy signals we found: its terms name Kombai, Inc.; TechCrunch and The Economic Times reported a $4.5 million seed round in August 2023 led by Stellaris Venture Partners and Foundation Capital; it was founded in 2022 by former Mindtickle executives Dipanjan Dey and Abhijit Bhole; it says it is SOC 2 compliant.

The main alternative: Lovable

Lovable is an AI app builder that creates and hosts full web apps from a chat, aimed at non-coders as well as developers.

What it costs: Free plan; Pro from $25/month (100 credits), checked October 31, 2026

Pick Kombai if you…

• already have a codebase and design system you want reused.
• care most about original, polished frontend design.
• want to work in VS Code, Cursor or your own repo.

Pick Lovable if you…

• want a full app, hosting included, without touching code.
• are a non-technical founder building an MVP.
• want backend features built in.

Our take

Kombai is a well-funded, frontend-focused AI agent that is worth a try on its free plan if you build UIs in a real codebase; budget carefully for credits, because paid fees are non-refundable.
