Tempo is a Visual Editor for React, which gives PMs, designers, and engineers the ability to collaborate visually on code. It offers the familiar UX of a design tool but functions like an IDE under the hood.

Review Tempo ?
Reviewers see Tempo as strong for front-end work: it quickly generates UI and components, lets people refine them in a visual editor or code, and helps with prototyping, styling, and collaboration. Several users say it speeds workflow and lowers development effort. But the sharpest criticism is consistency. Multiple reviewers report the AI getting stuck in loops, missing requirements, failing on auth setup, claiming to make changes without actually updating code, and sometimes freezing. Overall, people like the interface and pace when it works, but reliability still feels uneven.

Seems very promising, but not really living up to the claims made by the company or even the docs. You follow the process, exactly as described, only to realize when you're trying to launch anything that "Oh, Tempo didn't actually build out an auth structure," and "Oh, it keeps saying it is doing things, but not actually doing them, changing any code, or anything else, even though it says it is." Meanwhile, your credits shrink and the app freezes (losing you more credits).
I know we are all spoiled by really powerful AI tools for app development now, but at the very least the product should do what it claims to. Which at least in my case, this doesn't. It has huge potential, but I think it is overpromising by a lot.

So far this has been my favorite full stack AI IDE provider. I am still surprised that these tools all have the same early user issues of building the authentication flow out incorrectly and getting in loops of wrong instructions. Tempo Labs suggests Auth0, which is great for it's simplicity, but doesn't provide the correct instructions off the bat for redirect URIs and env keys. Every tool I've used for AI development gets lost in this step. I end up having to put in the URL for the project saying, "Shouldn't the redirect be this URL instead of localhost ?" Then it acts like it is something it looked over.

Thanks for the feedback and support @jaredepicpower! We are working to add more functionality and improve the user experience as get more customer feedback.
