Refero

@JamesDeAngelis @paper Hey James, makes total sense. We'll add the ability to choose between base64 and image urls very soon

@referodesign hey team, wondering if there are plans to update the MCP to support full size images as a URL instead of Base64? Without it breaks the workflow in @paper to prototype and build with 🙏

Been playing with @paper and @claudeai (@referodesign ofc) to build my own Personal Health Dashboard

@limpa @paper @claudeai awesome result! this is so inspiring!

My current AI workflow: - @referodesign MCP for design research - Portal for design (DM me for beta access) - Conductor for code - Obsidian for management love when tools start building themselves. Built the Portal site in a taxi with Claude + Portal

@rahmad00_ Hi, sorry for the late reply Thanks for reaching out, could you please send us a DM with the email associated with your Refero account? I'll sort this out for you as soon as possible

Hey @referodesign — quick question. I emailed you about an accidental $120 trial renewal charge but haven’t received a response yet. I cancelled the subscription and haven’t used the service after billing. Could someone please take a look at this? I’d really appreciate the help

@CHAMMISHRA Hi, really sorry about this Could you please send us a DM with the email associated with your Refero account? I'll take care of it for you.

@referodesign I am trying to contacting the customer support over email to cancel my subscription which comes under 7 days free trial, but there is no response from these guys. I don't know why they are promising seven days free trial.

@nabil_kaz this is an awesome use of our MCP, exactly what we dreamed of when building it

I asked the @referodesign MCP to "get the screenshots for the examples in this article or something comparable." It found them or something comparable _based on the article_, hydrated the hover cards with the images. All *semantically*. I didn't have to hunt the examples down. <3

Experiment: @claudeai + @paper with @referodesign (ux/patterns) + @maxibestofone (ui/visual). "Tinder for Dogs" in under 8 mins.

@rayzilient Totally We believe AI shouldn't just generate UI, it should understand it. By providing this context, Refero MCP helps agents perform deep UX research and offer actionable feedback on your current designs It's basically giving your AI agent the 'design taste' it's been missing!

also just discovered refero.design/mcp. it's basically like Mobbin but as an MCP. plugs right into your AI workflow. the concept is exactly what i've been looking for. haven't fully tested it yet but super intrigued. has anyone played around with this? is it worth going deep on?

We just launched Refero MCP on Product Hunt. If you want your AI to design better UI, check it out. There’s also a 30% discount code. Would appreciate the support 🙌 producthunt.com/products/refer…

The gap between "I love how they designed this" and "I have it in my Figma" just collapsed to one prompt. Built a design research pipeline that brings the design taste of any product into Figma. No screenshotting. No eyedropping. No guessing font sizes. Just one prompt in a terminal. Here's the problem: You see a pricing page you love - Stripe, Linear, Notion -and you want that level of design quality in your project. So you screenshot, squint at spacing, guess the border radius, and spend hours rebuilding it from scratch. I connected 3 MCP servers to Claude Code and replaced all of that: "Design a pricing page inspired by Stripe and Linear" → @referodesign MCP searched 124K+ real product screenshots → Pulled the design taste - exact hex colors, font weights, spacing, layout patterns, UX conventions → @claudeai Code wrote HTML/CSS blending both design languages into something new → @figma MCP captured it into my file as editable layers Under 3 minutes. Cost $1.24 . Figma Output in Thread 👀 Old workflow of screenshot → squint → rebuild? - That's dead 💀

@chosem_ @weswinder @birdabo Dont use it for UI. UI is easy. Use gemini and @referodesign mcp

🤫 Refero MCP is now included in the regular Pro. So now every Refero Pro user can try it. Your AI agent can research real product interfaces, user flows, and patterns in seconds, the kind of design research that normally takes hours. Better research → better generated UI refero.design/mcp

We built a demo site so anyone can try Refero MCP It lets AI agents do real design research before generating UI, studying real product screens, user flows, patterns and more Play with it here: demo.refero.design

just integrated this mcp into my demo, works really well

@alpes_aux_andes @avg_9ja @buildwithfede @mobbin try this link refero.design/trial

@referodesign @avg_9ja @buildwithfede @mobbin There s no 7 days trial for your Mcp

hey @mobbin, is an MCP server anywhere on the roadmap? 👀

@avg_9ja @buildwithfede @mobbin guys come test out our MCP! We've also got an incredible high quality search and a 7-day trial check it out: refero.design/mcp

@buildwithfede @mobbin They still havent done this? Refero has....i wish i didnt have the yearly mobbin sub :-(

Imagine your AI doing design research before generating UI. Studying real screens and user flows instead of guessing That’s Refero MCP refero.design/mcp

@fcoury hi Felipe, sorry you’re running into this Can you email me at main@refero.design from the address linked to your Refero account? I'll sort it out

@referodesign are you aware of a problem using the MCP with codex? Apparently it's ignoring the second section [mcp_servers.refero.headers]. MCP client for `refero` failed to start: MCP startup failed: handshaking with MCP server failed: Send message error Transport [rmcp::transport::worker::WorkerTransport>>] error: Transport channel closed, when send initialized notification
