ABOUT · EST. 2026

A studio building what we wished existed.

AI2 Design is a self-funded studio for designers and engineers who work alongside AI agents every day. We build the tools our own workflow demanded — and open the doors when they're ready.

THESIS

Three beliefs that shape every product we ship.

  1. AI agents need design-aware data.

    Screenshot galleries and Figma exports weren't built for copilots. Every pattern we publish ships with palette, typography, spacing and component metadata as Markdown, JSON and W3C tokens — readable by humans and AI alike.

  2. Curation beats generation.

    Generated design systems drift into sameness within weeks. We select a short list of references by hand, with editorial commentary, because a thousand bad examples train worse agents than five great ones.

  3. Designers deserve tools built for designers.

    Most AI tooling is built for engineers first, designers second. We invert that — the craft layer decides the vocabulary, the engineering layer executes it. No compromises on taste.

WHY WE'RE DIFFERENT

Not a gallery, not a component library, not yet another AI tool.

We sit at the intersection of editorial curation, token-level extraction and agent-ready metadata.

JOURNEY

A short build log — the highlights that shaped the studio.

  1. First curation pipeline shipped.

    Linear, Stripe and Figma entered the gallery with full token metadata and hand-written curator notes.

  2. Heavy mode extraction engine.

    F19.4 Clone-move DOM architecture solved nested navigation drift for SPA captures — unlocked Raycast-tier sites.

  3. Mobile + open-graph asset capture.

    F20.3 scroll-event skip pattern gave every curated entry a full three-screen visual kit: desktop, mobile and OG image.

  4. Public extractor flow live.

    F22 shipped — anyone can paste a URL, receive a 2-hour session and export tokens without an account.

  5. Founding sponsor program opens.

    Three tiers with a 40% founding rate locked in for the first year — with editorial review on every applicant.

WHAT SHIPS NEXT

Berkay — founder of AI2 Design

FOUNDER · NOTE

I'm Berkay Erdinc. I've spent fifteen years designing product — and the last two watching AI agents change how design actually ships. AI2 Design is the studio I needed and couldn't buy.
Berkay ErdincFounder · Sr. Product Designer

Before AI2 Design I led product at consumer and B2B companies, shipping design systems that teams actually used. The arrival of capable AI agents inverted the craft economics overnight — suddenly the scarce resource wasn't output, it was taste. AI2 Design exists to encode that taste in data a copilot can read.

WHAT WE REFUSE TO BREAK

Six promises that override every other trade-off.

  1. No VC. Self-funded until we're sustainably profitable — or we close the doors.

  2. No ads inside exports. Your Markdown and JSON stay clean, always.

  3. One inbox, no forms. Every request lands at hello@ai2.design.

  4. Editorial review for every catalog entry. No auto-indexing, no crawler surprises.

  5. Every price discloses what it buys. No 'contact sales' walls for basic tiers.

  6. If we ship it, we document it. Changelog publishes the day a release goes live.
