Screenshot-to-code alternative: no install, no API key

IMG2HTML is a hosted alternative to the open-source screenshot-to-code project. Upload a screenshot and get HTML + Tailwind (or React, Vue, Angular) in under 30 seconds, edit it by prompt, and pay from $1.99/month instead of running your own server and model API key.

screenshot-to-code and IMG2HTML, side by side

abi/screenshot-to-code is one of the best known open-source projects for turning a screenshot into code. You clone the repository, add your own OpenAI, Anthropic or Gemini API key and run it on your machine or server; its author also sells a hosted version. IMG2HTML is a ready-to-use service built for the same job.

	screenshot-to-code (open source)	IMG2HTML
Setup	Clone the repo, install, add a model API key	Nothing to install: web app, Chrome extension or API
Who pays the model	You, on your own API account	Included in the plan credits
Output	HTML + Tailwind, React, Vue and other stacks	HTML + Tailwind by default; inline CSS, React, Vue or Angular from the editor
Fixing the result	Iterate in its own UI	Built-in editor: change it by prompt or edit the code
Capture	Upload a screenshot or a URL	Upload an image or capture a page with the Chrome extension
Price	Free code plus your model API usage	From $1.99/month for 3 conversions

When to choose which

Self-host screenshot-to-code if you want full control of the code, the prompts and the model, and you are fine running a server and paying an AI API directly.
Use IMG2HTML if you want the HTML in about 30 seconds from the browser, an editor to fix it by prompt, the Chrome extension, or an API without running anything yourself.

What you get back from IMG2HTML

One HTML file styled with Tailwind CSS (from its CDN), Font Awesome icons and a Google Font close to the one in the image.
Real text for headings, buttons, lists and tables, in the order they appear in the image.
Placeholders with a description where the image had photos, avatars or logos.
An editor to change the result by prompt ("make the header sticky") or by hand, and to switch the output to inline CSS, React, Vue or Angular.

Four real conversions, with the unedited output of each, are on the image to HTML converter page. A full walkthrough of one screenshot is on screenshot to code.

Price

IMG2HTML plans start at $1.99 a month for 3 conversions (the Trial plan). Starter ($9.99, 40 credits), Plus ($29.99, 200) and Advanced ($59.99, 500) start with a 3-day free trial that includes 5 credits. One credit converts one image. See pricing.

Questions

Is IMG2HTML open source like screenshot-to-code?

No. IMG2HTML is a hosted service. If you need the source code and want to run everything yourself, screenshot-to-code is the open-source option.

Do I need an OpenAI or Anthropic API key?

No. The AI model is included in IMG2HTML credits: one credit converts one image.

Can I get React or Vue instead of HTML?

Yes. Conversions come back as HTML with Tailwind CSS, and the editor switches the output to inline CSS, React, Vue or Angular.
