The analysis

Figma Make is the best pick if your team already lives in Figma — it generates production-ready components inside files you're already collaborating on. Lovable is the right choice when you need to ship a deployed full-stack app, not just designs. v0 (Vercel) is React-first and pairs naturally with shadcn/ui — strongest for teams shipping on Next.js. Galileo AI for UI mockups when speed beats fidelity.
