# Google Stitch
AI-native software design canvas from Google Labs that turns natural language into high-fidelity UI designs for mobile and web apps. Powered by [[Gemini]] models. Positioned as "vibe design" — the design counterpart to [[Vibe Coding]].
## Core concept
Instead of starting with wireframes, describe a business objective, desired user feeling, or inspiration ("premium and minimalist, like Stripe") and Stitch generates multiple design directions. Rapid diverge-then-converge workflow: explore many ideas quickly, then refine.
## Key features
- **Infinite canvas**: AI-native canvas where you bring images, text, or code as context
- **Design agent**: reasons across the entire project's evolution; Agent Manager tracks progress and runs parallel explorations
- **Interactive prototyping**: "Stitch" screens together, click Play to preview app flows instantly. Auto-generates logical next screens
- **Voice interaction**: speak to the canvas for real-time design critiques, interviews, and live updates
- **DESIGN.md**: agent-friendly markdown file to export/import design system rules across tools and projects
- **Design system extraction**: extract a design system from any URL
## Developer integration
- MCP server and SDK for programmatic access
- Skills system (open source, 2.4k+ GitHub stars)
- Export to [[Google AI Studio]], [[Google Antigravity]], and other dev tools
- Generates HTML, CSS, and Tailwind code
## Availability
Free via Google Labs. 350 free generations/month in standard mode.
