VizForge vs Mokkup.ai

Mokkup.ai is a dashboard wireframing tool for Power BI and Tableau. You draw or generate a dashboard screen, optionally from an uploaded dataset, and export it as a Power BI template (.pbit) or to Tableau. Exports and AI generations are paid in coins: 10 coins per exported screen and 10 per AI generation, with 25 coins on the Free plan and 350 on Pro. It is one of the few tools that serves both Power BI and Tableau teams from the same mock-up, and it states ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II compliance on its pricing page, which matters to enterprise buyers.

The VizForge Design Studio is Power BI only. It designs the page's look (background, theme colours, KPI card art, icons and visual slots) and exports a PNG or SVG background, a theme JSON and a PBIP project in the browser, with no coins and no account.

Mokkup's own export guide is candid about what happens after a .pbit export: cards and KPIs arrive as fixed measures to replace, chart titles and card values can be static text, page order may not match the wireframe, and bookmarks and navigation are rebuilt by hand. The Design Studio's PBIP takes the other route: it places the page, background and theme exactly, and either leaves data binding to you or ships a sample model with the visuals already bound (Beta), not your own data. Pick by whether you need Tableau and a model scaffold, or a finished-looking Power BI page.

Mokkup.ai sells coins inside plans: Free includes 25 coins; Pro is $8 a month billed annually with 350 coins; Teams is $12 per member a month billed annually. One Power BI or Tableau screen export costs 10 coins, as does one AI dashboard generation. The VizForge Design Studio is free with no account; anonymous exports carry a small VizForge mark that a free account removes.

If you already have a Mokkup wireframe, keep it as the content plan and rebuild the look in the Design Studio: set the page size, brand colours and slots, then export the theme and background into the report you built from the .pbit.
