Polymet (YC S24)

No more AI Slop that look nothing like your brand, introducing Design Systems... Create your own with Polymet or import from Figma, tell your story, stay on-brand.

@mihir19297 should be fixed

.@polymetai Guys your export button is not working

@justinmfarrugia use @polymetai first then bring it in to implement

@polymetai love the design systems, would be great to see more of them for added variety but its been giving great results. keep shipping!

Here's a quick shout-out to @polymetai: in one prompt I redesigned scrnsht.app, here's the before and after:

New feature: import figma components with variants. Here is the new figma import flow, paste in figma file url, import components (with variants), frames, published components if it's a design system file into your polymet project. ps. once you import your design system from figma, publish it and use it for all your other projects.

here is how you can filter and search your files

@jesshubble lets goo!

3/ Then built an mvp on @polymetai

Things i did that did not scale, in the early days as a founder 🧵

customer support has no language at @polymetai

@blackgirlbytes Hands down @polymetai . I’ve never gotten the same fidelity in other tools.

@Keshavatearth @annetgriffin @blackgirlbytes both, we even take figma components with variants which most cant

@annetgriffin @blackgirlbytes @polymetai does it take figma files or screenshots? i am a design noob but i (think i) can put togther great ux esp for ai usecases. so excalidraw is my tool of choice

which LLM is the best at design

@prwl_nght aws was down :/

@polymetai websites been down today. any ideas @polymetai

We were silent recently because we were locked in for sep-dec, here is what we shipped recently: - Figma component imports with variants (supports published design systems) - Invite-only projects, for large teams, you can now invite a small number of collaborators before sharing it with everyone on the team - Actual design systems, not just themes (more details on the bigger announcement this wed) - Settings for design tokens, typography, colors, with support for adding new variables to both your css and tailwind config. - New themes, choose popular ones like Supabase, Claude colors etc. (and yes themes are not design systems, they're just themes, design systems on polymet can help you build your own shadcn, theme it as you like, and if you already have a design system on npm or figma, you can just bring it in) - Claude 4.5 (since Oct 1st), - New Figma import flow, no need for plugin, authenticate with Figma and that's it - AI remembers all previous conversations and can read messages outside its context window - AI will automatically refactor your code and increase code quality, breaking down larger complex files that were causing issues on some customers - Asset uploads and SVG support smaller fixes: - fixes accidental design systems usage on new projects - errors are handled better and retried with alternative model if model refuses to answer - load times improved, a larger improvement is on the way - automatically named projects, we did that mistake with 'Untitled' :/ - if a file is unused, you'll see a 'not in use' badge and can review and safely delete those - better chat experience, issues with scrolls are resolved

design systems are out on @polymetai → create your design system with your own colors, spacing, typography, and reusable components → link your projects with a design system, and projects are updated when design system changes → import your design system from figma quick demo of using the "Pixel Design System" to design an inventory component for a minecraft-like game

We’re getting ready to release design systems and preparing design kits for all Polymet users! Which design kits would you like to see in Polymet?

theming should be this easy pick your primary color and it's done.

We've added 600+ fonts to the library. Let us know if there are specific fonts you want to see at Polymet.

aside from importing your tokens/variables and components from figma, you can also build a design system from scratch with us. you can see that we created a brutal design system on the left, and used it on another project we created. this is the way! (eta: next monday)
