## What Swaggin does well

- Free previews allow inspection before buying.
- Each capture carries product and viewport context.

## Where Swaggin is limited

- Full-resolution screenshots need a paid license.
- The listed 10,000 monthly image-request allowance applies to paid access.

## Where Lazyweb shines

- Free human browsing makes it easy to inspect references before choosing MCP access.
- Agent workflows can pull references, app trees, and structured design context instead of relying on generic taste.
- Screen-version history lets agents see how a real product's UI evolved over time, not just one snapshot.

## Where Lazyweb is limited

- Lazyweb does not yet have web-app flows; flows are mobile-first today.
- Human-facing advanced filters are thinner than some paid human-first libraries.
- The product is intentionally agentic-first, so purely manual browsing may feel less polished than specialist galleries.
