What is it?

Open CoDesign is an MIT-licensed Electron desktop app for generating design artifacts such as HTML or JSX prototypes, slide decks, marketing assets and PDFs from a text prompt. It works with your own API keys for Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Kimi, GLM, OpenRouter, Ollama or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, and can also sign in with a ChatGPT subscription for Codex models. Existing Claude Code or Codex provider configs can be imported in one click.

Generated designs run in a sandboxed preview with phone, tablet and desktop frames. Users can comment on a specific element to have the model rewrite only that region, adjust AI-suggested tweak sliders, and inspect the agent's tool calls while it works. Each design is saved as a local workspace with its files and session history, and can be exported as HTML, PDF, PPTX, ZIP or Markdown.

The app stores credentials and design data on the local machine, and prompts only go to the model route you choose. It is aimed at developers and designers who want AI-assisted prototyping without a single-provider or cloud-only tool.
