Kite is an agent-first design tool where humans and AI agents work on the same HTML/CSS file. Hosted MCP, components/variants, variable modes, Figma paste both ways. Free / Pro $20/editor/mo.

What Kite does

  • Agent-assisted design: Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other agents so they can design directly in Kite files.
  • Shared design files: Create files with pages, frames, layers and design systems for screens, posts, logos and other work.
  • Live collaboration: Teams edit and comment on shared files together, with sharing controls for invited people and viewers.
  • Design system support: Use colours, type, spacing and shadows from a file's design system in designs created by people and agents.
  • Kite for Mac: Connect Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Claude with one-click setup and work from the open file on a Mac.
  • MCP server: Build agent connections with Kite's Streamable HTTP MCP server and developer tools.

Who it's for

Teams whose agents, including Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Codex, do part of the design work alongside people.

Why people use Kite

Design teams need a shared place where people and their AI agents can work on visual assets without separating agent output from collaborative design files.

Kite lets connected agents draw into shared design files while people edit, comment, organize and review the work together.

Kite charges for people rather than AI credits: agents run on the plan the user already pays for.
