Your design workflow, powered by a coding agent
Chordio Workbench runs entirely through Claude Code. Research your market, capture live pages, prototype features, get expert design critiques, and present to stakeholders.
Research
Automatically gather competitive intelligence, market benchmarks, and design trends relevant to your product category.
- •Competitive landscape analysis
- •Design trend identification
- •Market benchmark collection
How it works
There’s no SaaS platform to log into, and no IDE or terminal to learn. The Workbench runs through Claude Code, which your team can use from Claude Desktop, Claude.ai, or even Slack. Every capture, prototype, and presentation is a real file on your machine.
Capture
Point the Workbench at any live URL. It clones the full page - HTML, CSS, and assets - into a local folder you own.
Prototype
Describe the change you want in plain language - through Claude Desktop, the web, or Slack. Claude Code edits the captured source directly, adding components, changing layouts, and building new flows. No IDE required.
Review
Each prototype gets an expert design critique — evaluating hierarchy, clarity, and usability alongside accessibility and design system compliance.
Share
The entire project is a standard folder. Commit it to git so any team member can pull, run, and continue where you left off.

What teams do with it
The Workbench fits into how design, product, and go-to-market teams already work — no new tools to learn.
Prototype on real product surfaces, not mockups
Capture any live page and build new features directly on it. Designers iterate on the actual product, with real data, real layouts, and real constraints.
- •Explore ideas on real UI instead of static mockups
- •Polished before/after artifacts for stakeholder alignment
- •Automated review catches quality issues before anyone sees the work
Evaluate feature ideas against the live product
See proposed changes applied to what customers actually use. Validate concepts in hours instead of waiting weeks for an engineering spike.
- •Validate feature ideas on the real product, not a Figma file
- •Iteration cycles drop from weeks to hours
- •Fewer wasted review meetings. Prototypes arrive ready to discuss
Generate customer-facing assets from the live product
Create demo flows, prospect-specific mocks, and launch materials directly from your product. No design tickets required.
- •Build prospect-specific demos on the real product
- •Generate launch visuals without a design request
- •Keep sales collateral in sync with the latest product
Built for enterprise
Everything stays inside your perimeter. Nothing touches production.
Zero production risk
All work happens on captured clones. Your live product is never touched.
Full source delivery
Every output is plain HTML, CSS, and assets you can inspect and modify.
Runs on your infrastructure
Deploy on-prem with your approved LLM provider. No data leaves your network.
Fully auditable
Git-based projects with complete history. Every change is diffable and traceable.
