A collaborative design editor where humans and AI work on the same canvas. Describe what you want in natural language, AI builds it live, and your team iterates alongside it through Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, Cline, and Zed.
Design tools and AI assistants have lived in separate windows. Designers describe a UI in Figma, then re-describe it in chat to get code; developers prompt AI in their IDE, but the design system never updates. Every back-and-forth loses context. Teams need one canvas that both humans and AI can edit, with the design itself as the source of truth.
We built Cod'pen as an AI-native design editor: a real-time collaborative canvas exposed to AI agents through an MCP integration. Designers and developers describe what they need, the AI assistant builds it directly on the canvas with proper layers, components, and styling, and the team refines it side-by-side, live cursors, instant sync, version history, no merge conflicts.
One canvas for humans and AI to design together
Cod'pen is the collaborative canvas where you describe what you want and AI builds it live. Type "create a hero section with a heading, subtitle, and two CTA buttons", the AI lays out the layers, picks fonts and spacing, and drops the result on your canvas in seconds. Then you tweak colors, drag layers, snap keyframes, and ship.
Works with Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, Cline, and Zed, bring your AI assistant of choice, the canvas is where you both meet.
From setup to design in 3 steps
- 1. Connect your AI assistant: plug Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible client into your Cod'pen workspace
- 2. Describe what you want: "Create a hero section with a heading, subtitle, and two CTA buttons", AI is designing... Done. Hero section created
- 3. Refine together, ship fast: your whole team sees changes live, edits alongside the AI, and the design stays the single source of truth
Built for designers, developers, and teams
- Just describe what you want: full pages from a single sentence, iterate by talking to your AI
- AI that sees your design: the assistant has full context on layers, components, and styling, not just a screenshot
- Collaborate with anyone: work with your team and AI simultaneously, live cursors, instant sync, zero conflicts, like Figma, but smarter
- Teams & permissions: organize work with teams, projects, and fine-grained access control; share files with a link, no account required
- Version history: go back in time, your design is always the source of truth
- Ship products 10x faster: turn ideas into production-ready interfaces without bouncing between tools
The AI-powered platform that turns your ideas into production-ready interfaces. Generated on canvas, refined by your team, shipped 10x faster.
Cod'pen exposes its design API through MCP (Model Context Protocol), so any agent can read the editor state, place nodes, edit layouts, manage variables, and snapshot pages, exactly the same primitives a human gets through the UI. That symmetry is what lets humans and AI keep working on the same artifact instead of trading screenshots back and forth.
