Design AI is useful when it emits something a designer can keep editing: Figma layers, a Framer page, a v0 component. Screenshot generators that cannot round-trip into a real file are toys. We keep this category small on purpose so it does not turn into a sticker pack mall.

Layout, prototypes, and production files
| Tool | Best for | Verified |
|---|---|---|
| v0 | Generating React/Tailwind UI that you then own in a Next.js repo | |
| Lovable | Non-engineers who need a working web app mock that can become a repo | |
| Adobe Firefly | Designers who must stay inside Photoshop, Illustrator, and a commercial license story | |
| PhotoRoom | Catalog photos, marketplace listings, and background removal that has to finish today | |
| Gamma | First-pass slides when PowerPoint is a tax | |
| Figma AI | Designers already in Figma who want first-pass layers, not a new tool |
