Why does it matter for agencies?
Mowgli compresses the design-to-handoff cycle by generating high-fidelity UI for mobile, web, and desktop from text or imported Figma files, then exporting React + Tailwind code or Figma files directly. For agencies, the strategic shift is that the Team plan at $49/seat/year with shared folders and 12-hour support makes multi-client design retainers viable at small headcount. The credit-based model is the catch: each iteration consumes credits, so fixed-fee client scoping must account for revision volume or margins erode unpredictably.
