Overview
Magic Patterns is an AI design tool that generates interactive, code-based prototypes for product managers, designers and engineers in startups and large enterprises. It runs in the browser, and designs can be built on a team's own design system and handed to engineering. Plans are billed per seat at the workspace level, with a free tier, two self-serve paid plans and Enterprise, and generation draws on monthly credits.
Our take
Pick Magic Patterns when a prototype should look like your real product, because the team already has a component library and wants every concept to reuse it. If you only need a quick wireframe or a first mockup to polish in a vector tool, a lighter generator from this category gets you there for less. If the goal is a deployed app with a database and logins, an AI app builder is the better fit rather than a design tool.

Features
- What it makes
- Interactive, code-based prototypes of single screens and multi-page flows with real routes, published to a shareable URL or a custom domain, plus slide decks and MagicOS, an infinite canvas that holds designs, documents and references together
- AI generation
- Generates and edits designs from prompts and screenshots, with Agent Mode, Plan Mode, design variants, forking and merging, a model picker or Auto routing across Claude, Gemini and GPT models, and connectors that pull context from Notion, Linear, Granola and PostHog
- Brand, style and templates
- Design systems with components, colours, typography, icons, rules and skills, seeded from GitHub, an NPM package, Figma or a website; included from the Starter plan
- Export and handoff
- Export to Figma as static layers, download the code as a zip, copy code as a prompt, two-way GitHub sync on paid plans, and an integration skill that teaches Cursor or Claude Code to adapt a design to an existing codebase. Slide decks export as PDF or PowerPoint
- API
- Yes, a v3 REST API to create designs, send prompts, poll status and read files, mirrored endpoint for endpoint by an official MCP server with plugins for Claude, Cursor and Codex. The MCP server needs a paid plan

How we check reviews
Reviews are not published yet. The form on a tool's page works and reaches us, but nothing from it appears on this site, so no score here is based on a review. The rules below are the ones that will apply once reviews go live.
Every review is read by a person before it appears. We require a working email address and use it to come back to the author, so a review has a reachable sender rather than being anonymous. We publish positive and negative reviews alike, we pay nothing and offer nothing for a review, and we accept none that was bought or incentivised.
What we cannot do is verify a purchase. There is no shop here and no account, so whether the author really used the tool rests on what they tell us, plus the plausibility of what they write. We say so rather than implying a check that does not exist.
A vendor cannot have a review removed, cannot buy one, and cannot have one changed. Paid placement and a paid listing have no effect on which reviews appear or on any score.
