Refero
Refero is a strong pick when you want a Mobbin-like library but you’re more web-first in your day-to-day UI research. It focuses on real-product references with filtering that’s geared toward quickly narrowing down specific page types, patterns, and UI elements, which is ideal when you’re iterating on common SaaS flows.
One practical advantage is pricing flexibility: you can subscribe on monthly or annual plans, which can be a better fit for freelancers or teams that only need deep benchmarking during certain projects. That flexibility is often the difference between “use it occasionally” and “keep it on standby.”
If your workflow lives in Figma, Refero’s in-tool browsing angle is especially compelling because it reduces context switching: you can keep your references close to where you’re designing. Compared with Mobbin’s emphasis on a massive, constantly updated corpus, Refero is often chosen for a more focused “design research companion” feel around web and iOS patterns.
