DIVE vs Locofy
DIVE vs Locofy
Locofy generates code from Figma. DIVE emits diffs from the live page.
Same comparison shape as Builder.io: Figma-first generation vs live-page-first iteration. Different starting points, different fits.
Pick DIVE when
- You iterate on an existing deployed product.
- You want diffs your AI agent applies into existing code.
Pick Locofy when
- You design in Figma and need first-pass code output.
