Design Tools Tools
751 best Design Tools tools and apps, curated and ranked by community upvotes on ProductCool. Updated daily as new Design Tools products launch.
Ilse puts a toolbar on top of the React app you already have running. Click an element and say what should change, drag to reorder, resize, or tweak spacing and colors with your project's own tokens. Simple tweaks land instantly, with no AI. The rest goes to the agent you already use (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini), pointing at the right spot in the code. Pro adds test mode: Ilse walks real user journeys on her own and reports what breaks.
Localize the UI inside App Store and Google Play screenshots. StoreLocale detects text, translates it into 32 languages, and repaints it in place while keeping the layout intact. Review results in the editor, then export PNGs grouped by store, language, and size. The editor is free; use your own Gemini or OpenRouter API key, or buy one-time credits for AI image generation.
A free, open-source skill for Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor. Give your agent your app captures and a short brief, and it builds a local screenshot editor in your project. Choose from 18 styles, compare looks in Style Lab, edit the copy, and export every size for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Android, in multiple languages. No screenshot subscription. It runs locally; your usual agent costs apply. Install: npx skills add ParthJadhav/app-store-screenshots
Free Figma alternative made on Rust. Contribute to deepfounder-ai/desigma development by creating an account on GitHub.
Most AI image tools stop at one-shot generation. SurgePix keeps going: edit any layer, swap text, repaint a region, and stay on-brand with your brand kit. Or skip the UI — open-source agent skills let Claude Code & Cursor generate and edit visuals for you.
Canva Craft is Canva’s first in-house image model, built for marketers, creators and designers who need images that work as designs, not just pictures. Unlike models trained mostly on photos that render pixels straight from a prompt, Craft learned from millions of Canva templates and plans the composition first, then renders it at 2K in 30+ aspect ratios. Expect legible text in 55 languages, precise placement and outputs you can split into editable layers. Live in Canva today, plus API.
zCAD. AI is an AI-native platform for generating parametric 3D models, built for designers, makers and engineers. Describe a part or assembly in plain language, and zCAD. AI generates an editable, dimension-driven 3D model built on real CAD geometry, not a static mesh. • Complete assemblies from a single prompt, with mates between parts • Refine in plain language, or edit dimensions in a browser-based CAD editor • Export to STEP for use in any CAD tool
New since our first launch: drop a folder and every image and video gets a name you'd actually search for, in your naming convention – Web, Social, Product, Documentation, AI, or your own built from blocks like date, product and content. Keep files in collections, one per client: Archivist suggests the right one, and collections can fill themselves. Share a collection as one clean link. Try 5 files free, no signup. Mac app coming soon.
Animatica Marionette is a neural control rig for Blender: drag a hand, a foot or the hips and the whole body follows. Marionette allows editing FK motion directly in Blender. It runs on your machine, in about 15 ms a pose, on Mixamo, Unreal and other humanoid rigs as they are.
A free, open-source theme for iTerm2 and Ghostty on macOS and Linux. Real Liquid Glass in Ghostty on macOS 26, four glass levels, eight accents, light & dark. Every color is contrast-checked, and every change is reversible with one command.
UseIt is an AI design studio for things you can hold. Describe what you want in one sentence. UseIt asks what a designer would ask, designs it with you, and lets you refine any detail by pointing at it. You get a real, editable design file, not a flat image, ready to print, cut and fold, with real dimensions, bleed and dielines. Make pins, stickers, gift boxes, pop-up cards, brand kits and more. Use it in your browser, or call it up anywhere on your Windows desktop.
Publish a working prototype from Figma, Claude, Cursor or GitHub. Designers, PMs and engineers pin comments on the exact spot. Stage gets Claude to fix them in v2. Design, then product, sign off, and Stage files the Linear or Jira ticket. Reviewers are free
Inflight puts a feedback toolkit on your preview links and HTML prototypes. Reviewers comment directly on the live running app, with comments pinned to real elements, and feedback becomes next steps a coding agent can implement over MCP.
Kling 4.0 is an AI video model for creators, marketers and studios who need control, not lucky rerolls. Unlike prompt-and-pray generators, you lock the story first: up to 10 keyframes, 15 reference assets and 8,000-token prompts drive 30-second clips in a single pass. Stereo audio and lip sync in 10+ languages are built in. Creative Recreation swaps products or characters in existing videos. Kling 4.0 Flash handles fast, cheaper drafts, and MCP + CLI access plugs it into agent workflows.
Framefields is a high-performance, code-first video engine powered by native WebGPU in Node.js. Built for AI agents and engineers, it replaces bulky creative suites with a single npm package: motion graphics, Photoshop-grade VFX, 3D scenes, and audio DSP. Zero Chromium or browser overhead—render deterministic, frame-accurate video and export hardware-accelerated MP4s directly from TypeScript.
Figma Specs is a collaborative Markdown document that can live on its own or beside your designs. Embed Figma frames and FigJam diagrams, work through comments with teammates and agents, and pass the full context to coding agents through MCP.
Tidy is an open source alternative to Figma and Paper for designers, engineers, and AI agents. Design interfaces directly from your coding harness (Claude Code, Codex, Opencode, etc), explore the source code, and adapt the tool to fit how you work.
Skisso is a free Chrome extension for designers and developers who build with AI coding agents. Point at any element on your live product and edit it in your own design system: your tokens, your components, a shadcn/ui kit that matches your styles. Then hand your agent only the exact change, as a small diff or over MCP. No more describing pixels in prose or pasting the whole page: about 380 tokens instead of 25,700 in our test. Runs locally, no account.
Describe your device in plain English and siliXon takes it all the way to a routed, manufacturable PCB, built for anyone with an idea, not only engineers. In minutes. Rocky, our design agent, asks what it needs to know, then picks real, purchasable components, places them, draws the schematic and routes the copper. Edit in 2D and 3D, or just ask Rocky. Every board must pass engineering checks before it goes to manufacture, and the design files are yours.
Audio Lip Sync Pro is a tool for animators and modellers to generate high-quality lip-sync animations directly from audio clips. All processing is performed locally, no account, subscription, or network access is (or ever will be) required. Buy once, own for life! Currently, it supports meshes with ARKit blendshapes inside Blender (via the Video Sequencer). Releases for Unity and Maya are coming soon!
Hand-drawn diagrams and cheat sheets you can type or describe. Write Client -> API -> DB, or ask the AI, and it's drawn and laid out. Six looks, from paper to blueprint to neon. Present as slides, embed in docs, export PNG, SVG or PDF. Free, no sign-up.
