We're slowly rolling out to waitlist people so come join the party

@aimihia @akramcodez “Lose” and “chewed up by your puppy until unusable” isn’t the same 🤪

@akramcodez @lioridagan

if you always lose your TV remote, trust me there’s no better solution than this

we (@lioridagan and I) spent a lot of time designing Design Systems in @usebrilliant so that designers and agents need to author as little as possible to get a full blown, balanced design system For example with colors, you can author a single seed and get..

Amichai started a fresh account, go follow :) (My real reason for QTing is because I just wanted these two cuties on my feed 😍)

so stoked about design system support in brilliant. here's a small taste of the UX (UI authored by Opus 4.7, all values token bound to a design system)

the result of the prompt below took an existing hero using bare hex asked the agent to tokenize everything boom

and of course, fully editable by hand

and our lovely agents.. they love creating components + instances with overrides

final touches of design systems v2. In the attached image - same design, each top level frame has a different design systems/mode combo. All tokens auto resolve to the right color

@ycombinator we're in public beta! download here: brilliant.design

Thanks @galshirart for the incredible logo. So excited to launch our public beta with this sweet sweet brand release video! Brilliant is a professional 2D vector design tool with native vector gen UI. It's incredible. You should 100% check it out right now. (oh and it's free)

We're finally in public beta! Say hello to Brilliant - a free Figma alternative where AI works with vector primitives, not code. Auto layout, components, vector editing, effects, masks, boolean ops, gradients. Everything you'd expect and more. Here's what makes us different:

Did you try our "export replay as mp4" feature yet? Show us your results!! 😍

single click "export replay as mp4" in upcoming brilliant

@rsms These are my feelings exactly! Our Brilliant is the only gen-ui tool with Figma's design capabilities. All the tools that are flooding the market are so heavily code-driven that iterating on designs is just impossible but so needed!

This is really neat but it’s not a design tool as much as it’s a design _production_ tool. The practice of design is mostly about what comes before production. There’s no doubt in my mind that all parts of software production will become automated very soon. Writing code, making web pages, putting pieces of a design system together etc. And that’s fine. I think few people actually enjoy this kind of production work. Wouldn’t it be better if we spent our precious time in life on what is more meaningful?! At the core, the practice of design is methodical; like architecture, not like art. In a nutshell: We find constraints, form comprehension of the whole and propose solutions that honor those constraints. First after that do we enter some form of production phase, usually prototypes first, learn about some constraints that were hidden before, loop back, prototype and then build the production-grade “final” artifact. These last few tasks are quickly losing value because AI tools can do it much faster (not yet better though) than humans. It’s simply just what has the best RoI for a business. Some companies and individuals will continue to spend human time on certain parts of the “production line” as a market differentiator, but it will cost them a relatively high price compared to competitors. Anyhow, I still haven’t seen a tool better than Figma that supports the actually-interesting part of the design process. I wouldn’t be surprised if Figma focused their products on that, maybe separating “products for production” of “products for ideation & exploration.” The latter would obviously still leverage AI, but not to do the work for me but rather to support my efforts the way a therapist helps me live a better life (not living my life for me.)

We think that it's a game-changer for designers, and your honest input on it, good or bad, would be the most invaluable thing in the world to us right now!

It's the only professional UI/UX tool that matches Figma & Sketch in design and vector capabilities, but with incredible gen-ui, that is NOT code driven like all the tools that are flooding the market are! You can edit everything and continue iterating with the agent.

@jsngr Hi Jordan! You're the most credible voice on this thing regarding design and AI. We are DYING to hear what you think about @usebrilliant and would love to give you early access!
