Designbase
Stop Explaining Your Product To Your Tools
Designbase is a visual design environment that works on top of a user's real product, capturing components, patterns, tokens, rules, and product decisions into a shared ontology. This gives designers, engineers, and AI agents a common understanding of the product, reducing the need to repeatedly explain context and translate intent between disciplines.
Key capabilities include one-click import of a product's components and patterns, ontology-powered AI agents that receive structured product context, and Blueprints that turn design work into a living contract covering states, data, and agent guidance. Users can edit their running product visually or with agents, with changes propagating to code, and spin up code-backed prototypes in individual sandboxes. Additional modules include whiteboards, comments, flows, a dependency graph, vector editing, custom skills and tools, benchmarking, and rendering support beyond React, starting with Vue.
Designbase is aimed at teams of designers, engineers, and AI agents working on the same product. The homepage notes a download option and a waitlist, with no details on plans or packaging.
