AI that generates UI your design system would approve. Forge works inside UXPin with your real components—MUI, shadcn/ui, Ant Design, or your own—so you can iterate fast and ship clean JSX. No rebuilding, no workarounds.
We've been building AI into UXPin for over a year now – AI Component Creator, AI Helper, and more.
These experiments taught us where AI works well, and where it breaks down.
The pattern we kept seeing:
AI can generate UI, but when you try to use it in your product, it doesn't match your components. You lose context. You rebuild everything.
We unified everything under Forge – the AI engine powering UXPin.
What Forge does:
🎨 Works with your design system – MUI, shadcn/ui, Ant Design, or your own components via Merge
🌐 Start from prompts, images, URLs, or existing code 🔄 Keeps context so you can refine instead of restart ✏️ Switch between AI and manual editing anytime ⚡ Outputs clean JSX
If you've been burned by AI tools that ignore your system – this is built for exactly that gap.
I’ve tried a bunch of AI UI tools and most of them break when you try to use them for real
@nat_lasicaWe tried Claude Design but the output kept drifting from our brand. Does Forge have that problem?
Interested in how clean the JSX is in practice, anyone got some intel for me?
Congrats on the launch team, this looks like an unbelieve leap from the component creator.
Can it build out my custom library from the beginning, like before I launch and am making design decisions?
Hello PH!
What makes Forge different is not just that it generates UI. Most AI tools stop at visual approximation, but Forge understands how your UI is supposed to be built.
Forge goes further by grounding everything in your design system:
It knows your component APIs including props, variants, and states
It respects your design guidelines and patterns
It operates within your governance model, not outside of it
So what you generate is not just close enough. It is structurally aligned with how your team actually builds products and outputs production-ready code that references your real components.
One thing I’m personally excited about is the workflow shift.
You are not stuck in AI mode or design mode. With Forge, you can:
Generate a layout with AI
Jump into manual design to refine details
Go back to AI to expand or iterate
Repeat as needed
That loop is where it starts to feel real. Not a one-shot generation, but an actual design process.
It also opens up some interesting use cases:
Generate layouts from a URL or screenshot
Turn rough ideas like wireframes or hand-drawn sketches into high-fidelity UI
Rapidly explore variations while staying inside your system constraints
And because everything is tied to real components, you can also:
Override tokens, create themes or tweak the design language
Experiment without breaking system consistency
Instead of AI fighting your system, it works with it and produces code you can actually ship!
Let us know if you have any questions and what you think and feel free to reach out for a demo.

Design tools keep getting closer to real product behavior… interesting to see how far that actually goes in practice.
Congrats on the launch team, out of curiosity, how is your tool better than Claude Design?
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I'm Andrew, CEO of UXPin.
We've been building design tools for over a decade and Forge is the result of a question we kept asking: 'why does every AI design tool ignore the thing enterprise teams care about most - their component library?'.
Claude Design reads your codebase and approximates. Lovable and Bolt generate their own conventions. v0 locks you into shadcn.
None of them use your actual production components.
Forge does.
Your React library syncs via Git, or you can used a native global library we've already integrated for you.
The AI generates exclusively with those components - real props, real variants, real states. Then you can switch to professional design tools for refinement on the same canvas. No tokens burned on edits.
The export is production-ready JSX referencing your actual imports. Developers copy it and ship it. Nothing to interpret. Nothing to rebuild.
For teams without a custom library, Forge works out of the box with MUI, shadcn/ui, Ant Design, and Bootstrap.
We named it Forge because a forge doesn't replace the blacksmith - it gives them heat and speed. The craft still requires you.
Would love your honest feedback. We're here all day.
Andrew

Who hunted UXPin Forge?
UXPin Forge was hunted by Rohan Chaubey. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
