Flowstep 1.0 - AI design engineer. Design & ship real UI.
by•
Flowstep is the AI design engineer for developers and technical designers tired of rebuilding designs in code. Prompt or edit on an infinite canvas. Export production code or connect with your agents and apps via MCP. What you design is exactly what ships.

the '80% there then i rebuild in code' line is exactly why i stopped opening figma. running claude code daily and the design to prod handoff has been the biggest tax on shipping fast as a solo founder. mcp export into the coding agent is the right shape. trying it today !
Flowstep
@saad_el_gueddari can totally relate 🙌 Let us know if anything feels missing with MCP
Flowstep
@saad_el_gueddari exactly what Matt said – share all feedback you have after today!
Build Check
Yeah! Building fast sometimes means it's harder than ever to get a consistent and cool design. Even more if you need to update core design parameters and I'm sure Flowstep gonna help a lot on it
Flowstep
@german_merlo1 So true. Consistency is the hard part. We shipped DESIGN.md last week for exactly this — define your design rules once, every generation respects them. Drop your design guidelines in and see what comes out ;)
sounds like something that actually helps agents to build an authentic UI rather than just vibecoding it!
Flowstep
@vedantshirgaonkar Exactly the point — and we expose it via MCP for your agent of choice.

The MCP integration angle is interesting feels like you're not just building a design tool but plugging into a larger AI workflow ecosystem.
Flowstep
@daniel_henry4 That's the point. The canvas should be something your agents can use in and out, not just a place you export from.
Is this meant for legit designers and devs, or teams that are trying to cut corners by not hiring design and dev? Are there guardrails to keep the designs "good".
Flowstep
@diana_polansky1 we believe that designers and devs are the ones making the call — the tool just speeds up getting to a good first version, not replacing them.
On guardrails: designs follow your design guidelines if you bring one, and you can set tighter rules on top of that. Not about cutting corners, more about cutting the boring parts.
Thanks flowstep team for making this.
It really helps me to generate different design directions in very short amount of time and 2x my past workflow
Flowstep
@nishkarsh_gupta_381 Thanks – "different directions, fast" is exactly what we're going for.
One question – what's slowing you down right now, even if it's some small stuff?
Flowstep
@nishkarsh_gupta_381 so great to hear that! 🙌

This feels like a real step toward closing the gap between design and development . The what you design is what ships” promise is exactly what many teams have been waiting for.
Flowstep
@aarav_pittman Appreciate that — it's exactly the gap we're trying to close. A bit more to go, but each release gets a step closer.
Can you import a design system?
Flowstep
@dan_tatar Today you can import design tokens as a DESIGN.md file. Component support is next on our radar.

The design of the whiteboard is very good, and you can compare the effects of various versions, which is very intuitive! The results generated are also very good! But when I logged in, it was not smooth and I was stuck for a long time; the dialogue did not feel very smart. I wanted to ask something, but it seemed that I could not generate content through dialogue.
Flowstep
@jsxyzb Hi, what dialogue do you mean exactly? I'd like to look into that.
