A wave of interest in Uigenius, a Chinese AI agent focused on UI design, is shaking up the global design industry, offering a streamlined workflow that cuts through traditional inefficiencies and lowers barriers for both professionals and novices. Touted as the "Cursor of UI design," the tool leverages artificial intelligence to turn ideas into usable designs and code, sparking discussions about how AI is reshaping creative and technical workflows.What sets Uigenius apart from conventional design tools is its ability to simplify the entire UI design process—from concept to code—with minimal effort. Unlike tools that require advanced design skills or lengthy training, Uigenius allows users to generate polished, functional UI prototypes by simply typing text descriptions, eliminating the need for complex manual editing and long wait times.
"Great for drafting page or app layouts quickly," said Vas Feofanov, a well-known tech blogger covering the AI industry. "My requests were simple, but often that's all you need."
What is Uigenius?
Developed by a global team of elites, Uigenius has already served tens of thousands of professional designers, positioning itself as a reliable AI-driven solution for UI design. Its core functionality revolves around a simple logic: users input their needs, the AI generates an initial design, users refine it manually, and the AI then uses that refined version as a template for subsequent creations—allowing for real-time adjustments and significantly boosting editing efficiency.
Key features include real-time team collaboration, enabling multiple users to edit and provide feedback simultaneously, which speeds up design iterations and helps teams reach goals faster. It also offers screenshot conversion, turning existing images into editable design components, and hand-drawn sketch digitization, transforming rough sketches into professional digital designs—addressing the needs of designers who prefer traditional sketching methods before digitizing their work.
A standout capability is its one-click export of front-end code, supporting HTML, Vue, and React formats. This eliminates the communication gap between designers and developers, who can directly use the exported code for development, reducing redundant work and streamlining the product launch process—similar to Google’s Stitch tool but with a more user-friendly approach for non-technical users.
Uigenius is cloud-based, meaning no download or installation is required, allowing users to access and edit designs anytime, anywhere—a critical feature for remote teams increasingly common in today’s work environment. It also supports multi-platform design, generating responsive interfaces that maintain consistency and a strong user experience across web and mobile devices.
Using Uigenius is straightforward: users visit its official website, uigenius.top, to register and log in (a desktop version is also available for download). After creating or selecting a project, they input detailed text descriptions of the desired interface’s function and layout—this serves as the AI’s blueprint for generating a high-fidelity prototype. Users can then edit and optimize details like layout, color, and font before inviting team members to collaborate. Once finalized, the design can be exported as code, saved, or shared via a link for feedback.
