Design Inspiration
Let AI learn from designs you love and apply those aesthetics to your website.
How It Works
When creating a new website, you can provide design references that AI will analyze to extract:
- Color palette: Primary, secondary, and accent colors
- Typography style: Font choices and text treatments
- Layout approach: Grid style, spacing, visual rhythm
- Visual mood: Modern, classic, playful, corporate, etc.
Adding a Reference URL
- Click "Add design inspiration" below the prompt
- Enter the URL of a website you like
- AI will analyze the design when generating
Best practices:
- Use websites in a similar industry
- Choose sites with the aesthetic you want
- The homepage is usually best for analysis
Uploading a Screenshot
- Click "Add design inspiration"
- Click Choose image or drag a file
- Upload a screenshot or design mockup
Supported formats: PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF
What to upload:
- Website screenshots
- Design mockups
- Mood boards
- Color palettes
- UI inspiration from Dribbble/Behance
What AI Extracts
From URLs
- Full color palette (primary, secondary, accent, background, text)
- Font family suggestions
- Layout style (centered, wide, asymmetric)
- Section patterns and spacing
From Screenshots
- Dominant and accent colors
- Visual mood and style
- Spacing and density preferences
- Typography weight and style
Combining with Your Prompt
The design reference enhances your text prompt:
Without reference:
Mobile dog grooming in Portland
With reference:
Mobile dog grooming in Portland
+ [Screenshot of a modern, clean pet services website]
The result: Your business content with the visual style of your reference.
Tips
- Match the industry: A law firm design might not suit a dog groomer
- Focus on style, not content: We take the look, you provide the text
- Use multiple references: Sometimes combining 2-3 inspirations creates the best result
- Be specific in your prompt: "I want the color palette from this site but a more playful layout"
