"AI design tools are everywhere right now. But here's the question every designer is asking: Do they actually solve real UI problems - or just generate pretty mockups?"
"To find out, I ran a simple experiment with one rule: no cherry-picking, no reruns - just raw, first-attempt results."
"I fed 10 common UI design prompts - from accessibility and error handling to minimalist layouts - into 5 different AI tools."
"Claude AI - Anthropic's model, excellent at contextual understanding, UX writing, and accessibility-focused content."
A simple experiment tested five AI design tools against ten common UI prompts under a strict rule of no cherry-picking and no reruns to capture raw, first-attempt results. Prompts covered accessibility, error handling, and minimalist layouts. Tools evaluated included Claude AI, Stitch, UX Pilot, Mocha AI, and ChatGPT. Claude demonstrated strengths in contextual understanding, UX writing, and accessibility-focused solutions. Stitch produced structured, clean layouts even in beta. UX Pilot offered specialized UX and interface suggestions, while Mocha AI targeted rapid prototyping. The experiment compared which tools addressed practical UI challenges versus generating only attractive mockups.
