Connected design canvas for teams shipping with AI agents
Freemium Coding Desktop
Overview
Paper is a design tool built on web standards that connects teams, AI agents, code, and data on a single canvas. Design on an HTML/CSS-based canvas that exports directly as code. Integrates with AI agents including Claude, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Windsurf — agents can read and write canvas content via MCP. Pull real-time data from databases and APIs, sync design tokens and components, and automate responsive layouts. Available as a native desktop app for macOS and Windows, or in the browser.
