Building applications often requires a strong collaboration between designers and developers, moving from design ideas to functional code. This traditional process can involve significant manual effort and back-and-forth. Google is addressing this challenge with a new AI tool called Stitch, an experiment from Google Labs announced at Google I/O 2025. Stitch aims to create a more fluid and integrated workflow between design and development.
How Stitch Works
Stitch leverages the multimodal capabilities of Gemini 2.5 Pro to allow you to transform simple inputs into complex UI designs and frontend code rapidly. The tool is designed to turn your ideas into digital interfaces and code in minutes.
The process starts with your input. You can either:
- Describe the application you want to build in natural language. This includes details like color palettes or desired user experience. Stitch can generate a visual interface tailored to your description.
- Upload images or wireframes. If you have a sketch on a whiteboard, a screenshot of an existing UI, or a rough wireframe, Stitch can process the image to produce a corresponding digital UI, bridging your initial visual ideas to a functional design.
Features for Design and Development
Once Stitch generates an initial design, you can refine it using image inputs or an interactive chat. You can also use theme selectors to adjust colors and styles. Stitch allows you to iterate on the design, generating multiple variants and experimenting with layouts and components to achieve your desired look and feel.
Based on the design, Stitch can generate clean, functional frontend code. The generated design can then be exported to Figma for further development or collaboration, or moved to another development environment. It’s reported that Stitch can quickly spin up designs, including multiple pages for an app, and you can make changes conversationally.
Unlocking App Creation
Born from an idea between a designer and an engineer, Stitch aims to simplify the creation process. By allowing users to generate UI from natural language or images, it helps bridge the gap between design vision and coded reality. Google states that Stitch is about unlocking the magic of app creation for everyone.
You can try out Stitch yourself, as it is available as an experiment from Google Labs. Stitch is one of many AI-powered tools Google is introducing to help developers and streamline creative workflows.
