• Matches your brand by pulling colors and fonts from your website
• Redraws existing draw.io, Mermaid, or Excalidraw diagrams in a cleaner style
• Sizes diagrams for docs, slides, social posts, or print
• Exports to PNG or SVG when you ask

Extract Design

• Extracts the color palette with exact color codes and the font families a site uses
• Captures spacing, shadows, rounded corners, layouts, and common components
• Scores the site's color contrast against accessibility guidelines
• Creates a visual preview page plus Figma variables and theme files for developers
• Compares the design of two websites side by side
