What is MockFlow?
MockFlow is turning wireframing into prompt-to-plan generation and a bridge to agentic coding tools.
MockFlow (WireframePro + IdeaBoard) is rebuilding a whiteboard and wireframing suite around generative AI. Recent releases turn a single prompt into complete multi-artifact workspaces — wireframes, flowcharts, architecture diagrams, database schemas, Kanban, Gantt — and add an export path that converts wireframes into structured prompts for agentic coding tools.
What is Octopus.do?
Octopus.do spends October on the canvas: compact layout, statuses, sticky notes, arrow labels.
Octopus.do is a sitemap and content-planning tool that became agent-operable in August through ChatGPT and Claude apps, an MCP server and a REST API. September added team features; since mid-October it has shipped canvas work: a Compact layout for large sitemaps, project statuses, sticky notes that move with pages, and labels on arrows.

MockFlow
0.0DESIGN
MockFlow is turning wireframing into prompt-to-plan generation and a bridge to agentic coding tools.
◆ Current state
MockFlow (WireframePro + IdeaBoard) is rebuilding a whiteboard and wireframing suite around generative AI. Recent releases turn a single prompt into complete multi-artifact workspaces — wireframes, flowcharts, architecture diagrams, database schemas, Kanban, Gantt — and add an export path that converts wireframes into structured prompts for agentic coding tools.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is collapsing the design-to-plan-to-code path: AI plans and generates the full set of artifacts a project needs, then hands them to Figma or to agentic coding tools like Claude Code. AI is also becoming a composable canvas element (AI prompt box, recipes) rather than a single feature.
◆ Prediction
Expect MockFlow to deepen the design-to-code handoff — richer export to agentic coding tools and tighter Figma round-tripping — and to push AI generation across more board types, grounded in the multi-screen and export-to-prompt features already shipped.
Octopus.do
5.0DESIGN
Octopus.do spends October on the canvas: compact layout, statuses, sticky notes, arrow labels.
◆ Current state
Octopus.do is a sitemap and content-planning tool that became agent-operable in August through ChatGPT and Claude apps, an MCP server and a REST API. September added team features; since mid-October it has shipped canvas work: a Compact layout for large sitemaps, project statuses, sticky notes that move with pages, and labels on arrows.
◆ Where it's heading
After the agent integrations and team layer, the product is refining the sitemap itself as a review artifact that clients and teams can annotate and approve. The releases are small and steady, roughly weekly.
◆ Prediction
Expect more review-workflow features such as approvals or status-based filtering; the entries don't show new agent or MCP work since August.
