Mobbin MCP¶
Real product screens, searchable by an agent - so what gets built starts with what already works. Mobbin is the established screen-reference library (600,000+ screens across top products); its official MCP server exposes three natural-language search tools over that corpus. Results return inline images with metadata, and every screen carries its canonical mobbin_url so agent output can cite the source a human can open.
Server type: Remote (Streamable HTTP)
Auth: OAuth
Endpoint: https://api.mobbin.com/mcp
Tools: 3 (screen, flow and section search)
Pricing: Mobbin plans (not published on listing)
Category: Design & Product Research
Built by: Mobbin (github.com/mobbin/mobbin-mcp-server)
Why This Matters for Operators¶
"Let's redesign the onboarding" used to mean a designer hand-collecting screenshots from ten competitors. Mobbin's tools make that research a question: "show me how fintech apps do first-run onboarding" returns real screens with their source links; "find checkout flows with one-page payment" returns multi-step flow previews. Because the tools return inline images, an agent with vision can actually analyze the screens - layout, copy, hierarchy - rather than guess from metadata.
Tools & Capabilities¶
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
search_screens |
Natural-language search for UI screens; returns inline images + metadata + canonical mobbin_url |
search_flows |
Multi-step user flows (onboarding, checkout) with evenly-spaced preview images per screen |
search_sections |
Website sections (About, Pricing, Footer) with inline images |
Tool instructions enforce citation discipline: when presenting results, each screen must be linked to its mobbin_url, and descriptions must come from examining the images, not from metadata alone.
Installation¶
claude mcp add mobbin --transport http https://api.mobbin.com/mcp
First connect opens a browser OAuth flow to sign in to your Mobbin account.
Configuration¶
{
"mcpServers": {
"mobbin": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://api.mobbin.com/mcp"
}
}
}
Business Relevance¶
- Founders validating a feature pull every competitor's take on the flow in one session
- Designers start projects from real, cited screens instead of memory
- Product teams brief engineers with actual UI references linked to their sources
- Agencies pitching redesigns ground proposals in what the category's best products actually ship
Integration with CorpusIQ¶
Mobbin informs what to build; CorpusIQ measures whether it worked. A product session can research patterns in Mobbin (how do top SaaS apps price and onboard), implement, then validate through CorpusIQ - GA4 conversion funnels, Stripe checkout data, HubSpot win rates - so the design loop runs from reference to result in one agent workflow. For competitive product teardowns, Mobbin's screens pair with CorpusIQ's web-fetch and market connectors for evidence-backed comparisons.
Limitations¶
- Design reference only - no code, no components, no analytics
- Requires a Mobbin account and plan for full corpus access; OAuth on connect
- Vision-capable clients get the most value; text-only clients see metadata without the images
- New MCP listing (Aug 2026) for a long-established vendor
- Three tools is a deliberately narrow surface - search is the whole product
