Builder.io

# Builder.io Chrome Extension Review The Builder.io Chrome extension has become an indispensable tool for one key reason: it makes copying web layouts into Builder incredibly easy. The Copy Layouts feature lets you import any content from any page on the web into the Visual Editor, automatically capturing the complete layout including links, images, and responsive styles across multiple screen sizes. It helps to transform what would be hours of manual work into a simple copy-paste operation. If you're using Builder.io, this extension is a must-have for rapid prototyping and design replication.

Game-changer for visual editing and inspecting live sites. It makes it incredibly easy to connect design and code, experiment with updates, and see real-time changes without jumping between tools. I'm not super technical, and still I find it intuitive and empowering. Super fast and perfect for teams working across marketing, design, and engineering.

As a developer, this Builder extension saves me hours — I can copy any web layout straight into Builder as clean, editable code and skip the tedious rebuilds.

Best copy paste layouts plugin Ive seen recently! Works great and with better results than a lot of the big ones out there

This extension makes it super easy and fast to copy website layouts or inspiration into Builder as a starting point for my designs. I can then tweak and customize from there. It works great!

So easy to use and works great at copying layouts from the web and bringing those to Builder, a must for designers.

Simple and effective. It saves me time when working with Builder, and I haven’t run into any issues so far. Highly recommended!

As a designer, I use the Builder extension regularly. I can copy any layout from the web and paste it directly into Builder as working code - no more recreating designs from scratch. It even captures responsive layouts automatically and works with Figma too. Saves me hours every week and lets me focus on creativity.

Works really well, using it a lot and it saves me time!!

Super helpful for pulling content directly from a site into Fusion—it saves me tons of time when I’m spinning up quick prototypes or demos based on something I’ve seen online. Honestly, I can’t imagine using Builder’s tools without the Chrome extension—it’s an absolute must-have and a real time-saver.

This thing saves you as a developer from having to deal with iFrame embedding restrictions when your site is viewed in Builder's CMS - It's a must have!

I use the extension to copy any web layout directly into Builder, which is perfect for when a client says "make it look like this site" - just copy, paste, and customize!

I use this daily for going directly into my Builder pages to edit them. I've also used it successfully a number of times to copy layouts from web into Builder. It's an indispensable part of my workflow. The doc's helpful too: https://www.builder.io/c/docs/chrome-extension

A must have for making quick changes to your Builder content from any live web page

If you're using Builder, this is a must-have. Saves me hours every week!

Super smooth in terms of bringing the context I need from sites into Builder. VERY helpful.

Just WOW! It works like a charm!!!

Amazing tool for copying layouts from a website and providing context to your prompts in Fusion!

I use this *all* the time - makes my life WAY easier when I'm struck by web layout inspiration!

Really great at copying content from a website in Fusion which has been a game changer whenever Im whipping up a quick prototype or demo of some idea I saw on the web. I dont know how you can use Builder tools without using the chrome extension, it is a life saver

Super handy for copying layouts into Builder. Makes whipping up demos or prototypes way quicker—works exactly like you’d hope. Love it!!

It works really well for copying stuff from the web and then pasting into Builder

The Copy Layouts feature allows you to import any content from any page on the web into the Visual Editor Builder Chrome extension. This is where the extension truly excels. Whether you're inspired by a competitor's homepage, need to replicate a client's existing design, or want to quickly prototype based on patterns you've seen elsewhere, the process is incredibly straightforward.

I like being able to click "Copy Layout" then paste into the Figma plugin (or directly into Builder.io chat). You can press the UP key to select bigger sections than the default

I use it to open published pages in Builder, and it works perfectly for that scenario!

The extension makes importing web layouts into builder or Figma fast and seamless, supporting efficient prototyping and consistent design systems. Its direct page editing and “Copy Layout” features are especially handy for streamlining design-to-code workflows

I use it mainly to copy layouts from the web to Builder and it works like a charm

Does what it says on the tin, ie copying layouts from the web to builder, all good a++++

This tool doesn't work

doesn't work as of 8/26/25

does not work, can't copy elements from page

The extension started causing "Error: Could not establish connection. Receiving end does not exist.". Since i'm using NextJS it made me think my app had an issue.

I used to like this plugin, but since they have added the section feature I find it's really buggy. I liked the ability to take a whole web page at once, but now I can only get it to work a small percentage of the time, both from the Chrome Extension to Figma, and from the figma plugin using the desired URL. Would certainly reconsider this review if they added back a feature to capture the whole page instead of just a segment. Was much more reliable when I could import the json file, that works.

This tool is probably really high quality and it can really help me now, but I don't understand how to use it at all, and I've already looked at your guides on YouTube and the documentation files. I can't seem to understand why the tool doesn't let me mark or open the design page through the plugin itself. It's really frustrating. I hope I can find a solution for this.

Helps me to get correct content

This tool supercharges a couple of my common content-management workflows: - I'm on a live page that needs a quick edit: jump straight from my site directly to the content entry to make my changes and publish. - I'm migrating content and need to copy some layout items from a previous page: click the "copy layout" button and paste it directly into my Builder content page. Can't wait to see what else they do to improve my workflows. Thanks!

Simply lovely! Just view the content built with Builder.io without having to search for it.

Love this, helps me to travel to the correct content without searching for it

I rely on this daily (maybe hourly) to instantly find and edit all my Builder content. The new copy from web feature's been a huge positive addition!

I use this extension all the time to identify and directly access content built with Builder.io. Huge time saver! Love it.

This extension makes it easy to see what content can be edited and allows you to jump right into editing it. Super helpful!

I use this *all the time* to pull layouts or components into Builder or Figma! Super cool tool. Works well out-of-the-box.

Very helpful tool

No longer working

Works horribly, it was better before the update.

Very helpful! Works really well 👍

I've used a number of CMS tools, and the one thing that always drove me crazy was trying to find the page I was working on. Having this extension is a game changer. The ability to toggle it on and have it open the page you are viewing directly in the Builder app is so needed. If you are looking to reuse something on another page, just use the extension, go into Builder, and copy it. You can then add it to where you want it. I'm so excited about this.
