The five tools people compare most for turning an image into HTML are IMG2HTML (hosted converter, HTML + Tailwind, from $1.99/month), screenshot-to-code (open source, bring your own AI key), v0 (React/Next.js app builder), Fronty (image to HTML/CSS with a visual editor) and Anima (Figma plugin). The right one depends on whether you want plain HTML, a React app or code straight from Figma.

|---|---|---|---|
| IMG2HTML | Hosted converter: web app, Chrome extension and API | HTML + Tailwind CSS; inline CSS, React, Vue or Angular from the editor | From $1.99/month for 3 conversions |
| screenshot-to-code (abi) | Open-source project you run with your own OpenAI, Anthropic or Gemini API key; a paid hosted version also exists | HTML + Tailwind, React, Vue and other stacks | Free code; you pay for the model API |

We make IMG2HTML, so read this as a comparison by a vendor. Details of the other tools are as each one publishes them; check their sites for current plans.
Four images (a screenshot of upload-post.com, a photo of a paper wireframe, a mobile app mockup and a design frame) were sent to IMG2HTML on 23 September 2026 and the HTML that came back is published unedited, with notes on what came out right and what needed fixing. They are on the image to HTML converter page.
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.
screenshot-to-code is free open-source code, but you pay for the AI model you plug in. IMG2HTML has no free credits on sign-up; its monthly plans above Trial start with a 3-day free trial with 5 credits, and its text-only OCR extractor is free.
IMG2HTML returns Tailwind by default. screenshot-to-code and v0 can also produce Tailwind-based code.
