How to Design System UI with AI

You can create a design image of your system’s UI and screens with AI, based on your requirements. Tell it what the system is for and what functions it has, and AI designs the screen layout, UI components, and operation flow — with this flow, even someone who can’t shape screens can make a draft. That said, what AI produces is a design image (a reference), not a production-ready screen. Turning it into a working system needs implementation (coding) separately.

I’m Naohiro Hayashi, creator of Soreda!. I built a system UI AI myself and have run it, practicing the flow of “requirements → UI design image → implement → verify.” From that experience, I’ll lay out how to design your system’s UI and screens with AI.

You can create a design image of your system’s UI with AI

You can create a design image of your system’s UI and screens with AI, without drawing them from scratch. Tell it the functions and purpose, and AI proposes a screen structure, so it’s easier to give your mental image a shape.

You have the finished image, but can’t shape the screens

You may have an image of “I want a system like this,” but turning it into screens is hard. Not knowing what screens are needed, or how to arrange them, stalls the conversation with a developer — a common struggle.

Tell it the functions and purpose, and AI designs layout

When you tell AI the functions and purpose of the system, it designs the necessary screen structure, layout, UI components (parts like buttons and input fields), and the operation flow. Rather than working out screens alone, you just answer the questions, so it’s far easier to give it shape.

The flow of designing system UI with AI

The flow of designing system UI with AI is: organize requirements → AI designs screens → a human checks. Let’s go in order.

First, organize the requirements

Before designing screens, organizing what you’ll build (the requirements) keeps the screens on target. How to organize requirements is covered in How to Define System Requirements with AI. Settling the requirements (what to build) before moving to screens (how to show it) keeps the consideration smooth.

AI generates screen layout, UI components, operation flow

Based on the organized requirements, AI generates the screen layout, UI components, and operation flow. Including how multiple screens connect, it takes shape as a design image, so the whole picture is easier to grasp. How to convey the generated screen image to a developer is covered in Conveying Your UI Image to Developers.

What it can do is a “design image” — production needs implementation

This is the important point. What AI can do is create a “design image” of the screens. Turning it into a real system needs implementation.

What AI produces is a design image (a reference)

What AI produces is a design image (a reference). It isn’t a production-ready screen you can use as-is. Receiving it as “a proposal to firm up the screen direction and to show a developer” is the right way to use it.

Implementation (coding) is separately required

Turning a design image into a working system requires implementation, such as coding, separately. You save the cost and time of commissioning the “screen images” from a designer, but the implementation work doesn’t become zero. Designer-free applies to the stage of producing screen images, not the whole process. Detailed usage and caveats are covered in How to Use AI-Generated UI (and Caveats).

FAQ

Q. What kinds of system screens can I make? A. A wide range — business apps, admin screens, and more. Starting from your requirements makes it easier to produce the design images of the screens you need.

Q. Can I use it for development as-is? A. No. What AI produces is a design image (a reference). Turning it into production needs implementation, such as coding, separately.

Q. Is a designer unnecessary? A. At the stage of producing screen images, you can proceed without a designer. But implementation is still required — done by you or commissioned to a developer.

Q. How much does it cost? A. System UI design is ticket-based, counted per run. See the official site for current details.

You can create a design image of your system’s UI and screens with AI, based on your requirements. Tell it the functions and purpose, and you can shape it into screen layouts and operation flows. But what AI makes is a design image (a reference); production needs implementation. Start by organizing the requirements, and have AI produce a design image of the screens based on them.
