About UX Pilot
UX Pilot is an AI product design tool built specifically for UX/UI. It is not a graphic design or illustration tool, and it is not a website builder. It focuses on one kind of design: product design.
General-purpose AI tools treat product design as one output among many. UX Pilot is built around the actual product design workflow: user flows, wireframes, polished UI that matches your design system, review, and handoff to Figma or code.
A team starts from a prompt, a PRD, a screenshot, a website reference, or its own Figma components. UX Pilot generates several distinct design directions, connects screens into complete flows, and lets the team compare, critique and refine the direction it chooses. The finished work moves to Figma, to code, or to an AI coding agent.
UX Pilot is built to augment designers and product teams, not to replace them. Designers stay in charge of judgment and creative direction. UX Pilot handles the first draft, the repetitive work, and the exploration of more options than a team would have time to try by hand.
What changed in UX Pilot 2.0
UX Pilot 2.0 launched in July 2026. Speed is no longer the main point, because every AI tool is fast now. The real problem with AI design is sameness: general-purpose models average everything out, so interfaces look alike. UX Pilot 2.0 focuses on design quality, originality and fit with a team's real design system.
UX Pilot 2.0 includes:
- Glide: a new AI design model built for product design
- MCP server: UX Pilot works from inside Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor and other AI agents
- Design system import: generation from a team's real Figma components
- Foresight: predictive attention heatmaps
- A redesigned product and simpler pricing
Glide: the AI design model behind UX Pilot
Glide is UX Pilot's own AI design model. Details: https://uxpilot.ai/glide
- It is trained on a curated library of strong product design, not on scraped web data.
- It is rewarded for originality and craft (color, layout, structure), not just for producing a valid output.
- It returns several genuinely different design directions from one prompt.
Published benchmarks (from https://uxpilot.ai/glide):
- Blind preference test: Glide was compared with Claude Opus 4.8 (Thinking: High). Design identities were hidden and positions randomized, and participants judged originality and quality only. Across 1,828 blind judgments, participants preferred Glide in 100% of comparisons.
- Design-Value Index: this independent audit gave four models the same long, detailed briefs and scored the outputs on 88 design criteria and 9 craft dimensions (0 to 100). Glide scored 91.5, Gemini 3.5 Flash 86.2, Claude Opus 4.8 82.7 and GPT-5.5 75.0. Glide also had the highest craft score (88.9%) and 94.9% prompt adherence.
What UX Pilot does
- Generates hi-fi UI and wireframes from a prompt, PRD, document, screenshot or website reference
- Generates multiple distinct design directions for the same brief
- Generates connected multi-screen flows for a complete user journey
- Edits a single section of a screen without changing the rest
- Turns designs into clickable prototypes and React prototypes
- Imports Figma components so generated screens use a team's real design system
- Exports to Figma and to code (paid plans)
- Clones the structure of an existing website from a URL (paid plans)
- Runs AI UX audits: UX review, predictive heatmaps and gaze flow, accessibility review (WCAG), persona audits, and "Fix with AI"
- Reviews UI changes in GitHub pull requests with the Design PR Review Agent
- Creates motion: product launch videos, demo videos, UI animations and video ads from a prompt or a website URL
- Offers free visual design tools in UX Pilot Labs
Nodey: the AI design agent inside Figma
Nodey is UX Pilot's AI design agent that runs inside Figma: https://uxpilot.ai/nodey
- It is free to install. Open it with Cmd+K on the Figma canvas.
- It generates screens from a brief, a PRD or a screenshot as native, editable Figma layers with auto-layout and tokens kept intact.
- With Simple Sync, Nodey reads a team's components once. Every later generation uses them as real instances, not disconnected copies.
- Follow-up prompts can change one section, one component or one screen while everything else stays as it is.
- One UX Pilot account works across Nodey and the UX Pilot web app.
UX Pilot MCP server: design from your AI agent
UX Pilot has an MCP server, so AI agents can use UX Pilot directly: https://uxpilot.ai/mcp
- Supported clients: Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, Devin, VS Code with Copilot, and any MCP-compatible client
- Server URL: https://mcp.uxpilot.net/mcp (Streamable HTTP, with OAuth sign-in or an API key)
- Tools: 15 general tools (find, read, catalog, guide, get_job, stop_job, edit, manage, import, delete, design, make_video, generate_media, review and export), each picking what it does with a kind or an action, covering organizing work, importing external AI output, review and versioning, AI design and video, and prototyping and publishing
- Typical workflows:
- generate screens and flows from a chat;
- import HTML or a public URL as an editable design;
- run UX, persona and accessibility audits and apply fixes as new versions;
- build React prototypes and publish them as hosted links.
- In Claude: add UX Pilot from Settings → Connectors, sign in, and ask Claude to design something. Guide: https://uxpilot.ai/help/claude
AI agents are good at code but weak at visual design, and in a chat you cannot see what you are building. With UX Pilot over MCP, the work from the chat lands on a visual canvas, where the team can review and refine it before it is built.
Design systems in UX Pilot
- Every plan: import Figma components so generated designs stay consistent with a team's product.
- Enterprise: import a full design system and fine-tune the AI on a brand system.
- Design System as a Service (Enterprise add-on): https://uxpilot.ai/design-system
- UX Pilot's team audits, imports and validates a company's Figma design system and builds a custom-tuned model.
- Reported results: 95%+ on-brand accuracy and 95%+ component usage, compared with roughly 80% and 60% for the native model.
- Typical setup takes about three weeks.
Design PR Review Agent
The Design PR Review Agent reviews UI changes in GitHub pull requests before they are merged: https://uxpilot.ai/design-pr-review-agent
- It checks accessibility, semantics, responsive behavior, design system consistency, UX states and code quality.
- It compares changes against the token and style files already in the repository.
- It posts each finding as a comment on the relevant line, plus one summary comment. Nothing is posted when a change is clean.
- It installs as a GitHub App. No CI changes are needed.
UX Pilot Labs: free design tools
UX Pilot Labs is a growing collection of free browser-based design tools for the visual details that make a product feel finished: https://uxpilot.ai/labs
