DesignDNA
FreemiumBrowser extension that turns any website into a design spec for AI agents
What is DesignDNA?
DesignDNA is a browser extension that reads a website's colors, typography, spacing and components and compiles them into a Markdown design document. Developers feed that file to coding agents like Cursor, Windsurf, Cline or Claude Code so generated UI matches a reference style.
Besides the design.md file, it exports design tokens as JSON, Tailwind v4 themes, CSS variables and a Figma export. The written spec explains what gives the source site its character, such as a specific accent color or a 4 px spacing base.
The extension runs in Chrome, Brave and Firefox. The site shows an example where an extracted spec was pasted into Google Stitch to produce a matching landing page in one pass.
