What is Polymet?

Polymet is an AI Product Designer that enables users to design pages, components, and prototypes while generating production-ready frontend code. Users can create designs by describing what they want in plain language, uploading sketches or screenshots, or importing Figma frames. The tool generates both the visual design and the corresponding React/Tailwind CSS code, bridging the gap between design and development.

Key features include a visual editor for tweaking layouts, spacing, and colors; a code editor for full control over the generated code; canvas and focus modes for different workflow needs; prototype creation with shareable preview links; team collaboration with real-time comments; Figma import and export capabilities; and integrations with GitHub, npm packages, and Storybook. The tool generates components for reusability, pages for complete screens, and interactive prototypes connecting multiple pages.

Polymet is designed for product teams, startups, developers, non-designers, marketers, and anyone who needs to create UI designs without deep design expertise. It helps teams create design systems, iterate faster with AI, reduce time from design to code, and ship products faster. The tool is enterprise-ready with security and compliance features, making it suitable for businesses of all sizes.

Frequently asked questions about Polymet

What is Polymet?

Polymet is an AI Product Designer. You can design your pages, components and prototypes with Polymet and get production-ready frontend code. It generates both the design and the code for pages, components, and provides fully interactive prototypes.

How does Polymet work?

Explain what you want to create in plain language, or provide sketches and images to show what you need—Polymet will design the interface for you. You can then refine your design through edits and explore new patterns by creating variations. You can also import from Figma to start iterating on existing designs.

What coding languages and frameworks does Polymet support?

Polymet provides React code with Tailwind CSS. You can use Shadcn UI by default, but you can opt out by prompting the AI to 'design from ground up' or mention the UI kit you want to design with. Vue, Svelte, and Mobile support with React Native is coming soon.

Can I use Polymet with my team?

Yes, Polymet empowers everyone on the team. You can click 'Manage Members' to invite your team members. You can then share projects by right-clicking and selecting 'Share with team' on any project. Team members can collaborate in real-time, chat with each other, leave comments, and keep everyone aligned.

Can I export designs to Figma?

Yes, you can export your designs to Figma by clicking the Export button in the Canvas view. Polymet also supports Figma import so you can copy and paste screenshots of your designs or import Figma frames to start iterating on them.

Do I need design experience to use Polymet?

No design expertise is required. Polymet uses AI to help non-designers create production-ready designs and front-end code. Anyone can create beautiful and functional interfaces by explaining what they want to build or providing an image, and Polymet will design and implement it for them.

What are the most common use-cases of Polymet?

Common use cases include creating landing pages and hero sections, building product UI components and screens, quickly fleshing out prototypes for customer demos, exploring multiple design paths for inspiration, creating design systems for product teams, and generating marketing interfaces. It's useful for startups, product teams, and developers who need quick UI prototypes with AI-generated code.

How can I start using Polymet?

You can start by going to app.polymet.ai and trying it out. There is a free plan with 250 credits available for testing. You can also book a demo call if you need help getting started. For questions, feedback, or support, contact [email protected] or [email protected].

Is Polymet's AI trained on customer data?

No, Polymet was developed using a diverse range of publicly available data sources and carefully curated design patterns. They have never used paid customer data to train, improve, or fine-tune the public models that power Polymet, and they never will. The public datasets focus primarily on web development, particularly React, Next.js, and modern web technologies.

What integrations does Polymet have?

Polymet integrates with Figma for import and export, works with GitHub for development workflow, supports public and private npm packages, and integrates with Storybook. They are working on additional GitHub and Storybook integration to support existing components and design systems. The tool connects seamlessly with your existing codebase.
