Meet the new Stitch, your vibe design partner. Here are 5 major upgrades to help you create, iterate and collaborate: 🎨 AI-Native Canvas 🧠 Smarter Design Agent 🎙️ Voice ⚡️ Instant Prototypes 📐 Design Systems and DESIGN.md Rolling out now. Details and product walkthrough video in 🧵
- #2
Here is a quick walkthrough of everything new in Stitch: 🎨 The AI-native canvas can hold and reason across images, code, and text simultaneously. The new agent manager helps you design in parallel. (PS … light mode!) 🧠 A smarter design agent now understands your entire canvas context. You can swap images, generate product briefs, or mix mobile and desktop screens on the same canvas. 🎙️ You can vibe design with your voice (in Preview). Stitch can ‘see’ your canvas and your selected screens. You can ask for design critiques, variations, or navigate your canvas. ⚡️ Instant prototypes. Just hit the play button to see a prototype or preview your app in seconds. Stitch can imagine the next screen based on your mouse click. 📐 DESIGN.md and consistency. Every new design automatically starts with a cohesive design system which vastly improves consistency. The new DESIGN.md file can be used to export or import your design rules. Walkthrough video👇 Details for each major improvement 🧵

🎨AI-Native Canvas We are introducing a complete redesign of the Stitch UI with a node-based infinite canvas: ✨ This spatial canvas accepts images, code, and PRDs as creative seeds ✨ The new Agent Manager helps you work on many ideas in parallel and keeps you organized ✨ Clicking a task in the agent manager takes you to the relevant screens ✨ Light mode! Sometimes some extra contrast can be helpful, especially when working on darker screens
- #4
🧠Smarter Design Agent A completely new design agent understands your entire canvas context. Try asking it: ✨ “Swap out the logo (or profile image) with the one I just uploaded” ✨ “Make a product brief from these screens and put it on the canvas” ✨ “Interview me to help me design a new landing page for my brand” ✨ “Make a mobile version of these screens” (we heard you! you can now mix mobile and desktop screens on the same canvas!)
- #5
🎙️Voice (Preview) We believe that your voice will be the future driver of design: ✨ In voice mode, Stitch can "see" what you are working on and what you click on (“change this screen”) ✨ Stitch acts as a sounding board to give you real-time design critiques ✨ Tell Stitch to make an update, then another one…. and another one, Stitch works on it all concurrently ✨ Ask it to navigate the canvas completely hands-free (“show me the dashboard screen”) As a preview feature, expect rapid improvements in voice in the coming weeks
- #6
⚡️Instant Prototypes Click 'Play' to instantly preview your interactive app flow. ✨ Stitch automatically assesses the order of screens and adds connections ✨ You can ask Stitch to automatically generate the logical next screen based on where you click ✨ Here you can design transitions, and interactions [coming soon] ✨ You can even see the "states" of different screens, like logged in versus logged out views ✨ Share a direct link to your prototype (or mobile QR code)
- #7
📐Design Systems and DESIGN.md Consistency using Design Systems and DESIGN.md: ✨ Every new design automatically starts with a cohesive design system which GREATLY improves consistency (we heard you!) ✨ Edit the system, and all associated screens can be easily updated ✨ You can extract a design system from any URL ✨ Use DESIGN.md to export your design rules or import your design rules from other products (just ask your agent to create you a DESIGN.md file from your code or other context) ✨ You can start a new design by choosing from popular design systems ✨ Read more about DESIGN.md in the docs (link in thread)
