Ask ChatGPT or Claude to design, then edit every layer
Connect Gesso to ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor or any agent and ask for a website, a deck or a poster. It builds live on your canvas in real HTML and CSS layers you can drag, restyle and export. Free to try on Mac.
AI can write a whole website now, but what you get back is code or a picture. You can't grab the heading and move it. So I built a canvas that any AI can design on, made of real HTML and CSS, where every layer it makes is yours to change by hand.
Ask for a deck, a website, a poster. Watch it build live, then drag, restyle and export.
Every image in the gallery was made this way, by an agent, on the canvas.
Agents read a built-in style guide before they design (minimal, Swiss, editorial, dark tech, bold, brutalist, playful), so you get something with a point of view instead of the usual generated look.
It's a beta: free to try with 150 agent calls, and the first 100 founding members get a year for $60.
What would help most: tell me what you asked your agent to make, and where it fell short. I'll be here all day replying.

Who hunted Gesso?
Gesso was hunted by G Andrew Wilson. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Andrew, and I built Gesso.
AI can write a whole website now, but what you get back is code or a picture. You can't grab the heading and move it. So I built a canvas that any AI can design on, made of real HTML and CSS, where every layer it makes is yours to change by hand.
