Bring any AI Agent to the canvas through MCP, from Claude Code to Codex, and keep every design editable with human control.
Take Control Together on the Canvas
Your AI Designer sees what you see — understanding layout, elements, timing, and visual relationships — and directly participates on the canvas in fully editable, context-aware design. What you can do on the canvas, AI can help do too, instead of staying a bystander outside it.
Layouts, Motion, and Video — One AI Design System
Create brand-aligned visual content across slides, graphics, and motion. From layout and storyboard to animation and export, everything stays fully editable within one unified AI Design system.
Real-Time AI Design Collaboration
Work alongside your AI Designer in real time. Direct it with chat or refine manually — every change is fully editable, brand-aligned, and synced instantly on the AI-native canvas.
