Visual Sandbox vs MagicPath

One designs the screen. One makes what goes on it.

In short

  • MagicPath plans run $7 to $21 a month billed yearly, plus a custom Teams tier.
  • Credits pay for UI generation. An external agent driving it costs no MagicPath credits.
  • Free gives 20 credits a day and a few Figma imports and exports.
  • MagicPath makes interfaces. We make images, video, audio, 3D and vectors.

Our take. Use MagicPath to design screens with your coding agent. Use Visual Sandbox to make the media those screens show.

MagicPath is a workspace where people and coding agents design UI together, with Figma in and out and code for any IDE. Its credits pay for UI, not media.

Worth checking

Different product
MagicPath designs interfaces. It does not generate images, video or audio. This page exists because both sell credits to designers.
Only annual prices render
The toggle promises 30% off yearly, and the monthly figures did not appear in a static read.
Packs reset
Unused credits do not roll over.
Complexity sets the price
A button costs fewer credits than a page. There is no fixed price per screen to quote.
We design nothing
No canvas, no Figma, no code. One model, one run.
