AI agents render UI slowly, expensively, and inconsistently — and a huge chunk of inference bills gets eaten by UI generation. Montage fixes it. Your agent emits a tiny intent schema; we compile it server-side into production components. 10x faster hydration, 50-100x fewer output tokens, model-agnostic, framework-agnostic, themed to your brand. Don't let your agents reinvent UI every turn - ship them on Montage!

Hey Product Hunt!

I am so excited for our launch today. We would love to know your thoughts on Montage, what you would like to see, and whether it's the right fit for your company. For now, we are letting everyone use it for free as we understand your needs, but we will eventually move on to a paid model for our services.

If you're a bit more curious about our story, you can read our article here, too: https://dev.to/aboss123/your-ai-agent-shouldnt-write-html-it-should-call-a-ui-runtime-3f96

It also helps explain a bit, with examples of what Montage is capable of!

Comment highlights

you don't even mention that front end with AI is a weak spot to begin with, so you're really addressing three problems: doing front end work with AI, making it faster, making it cheaper. Kudos.

The token waste on UI generation is something I only started noticing once I was running agents at scale. You don't feel it on one conversation, but when you're running 10+ parallel sessions the inference bill tells a different story. The intent schema approach makes a lot of sense. What does the fallback look like when the schema doesn't match a component you have, does the agent degrade gracefully or does it just error?

Hey Product Hunt 👋

@aboss123 and I have been heads-down on Montage for the past several months — it's the runtime framework for agentic UI!

Why we built it:
After talking to dozens of founders building customer-facing agents, the same pattern kept showing up.
• Their agents rendered UI slowly, expensively, and inconsistently — and a huge chunk of their inference bill was getting eaten by UI generation.
• Every chart, table, kanban, or form regenerated from scratch, token-by-token, every single turn.
• And the UI still looked broken to customers half of the time.

Montage fixes this end-to-end. Instead of generating UI token-by-token, your agent emits a tiny intent schema and we compile it server-side into production HTML/CSS/JS. Components are pre-rendered, themed to your brand, accessible, and responsive.

What's in v1:

10x faster hydration vs streamed generation
50-100x fewer output tokens per render
Model-agnostic — Claude, GPT, Gemini, Llama, custom fine-tunes
Framework-agnostic — React, Vue, Svelte, vanilla, mobile
Full theming so it looks like your product, not ours
One-line install

Get started in minutes:
1. Make an API key at usemontage.ai/get-started
2. Read the docs at usemontage.ai/docs/overview (Or hand the docs URL to your coding agent and let it set Montage up for you)

We're starting with agent-building companies because that's where the pain is sharpest, but the thesis is bigger: every AI output that reaches a human is a rendering problem. Montage is the layer underneath all of it!

If you're building customer-facing agents, we'd love your feedback + questions/insight!
Email us at [email protected] today, we'll offer extended hands-on integration support for your first agent setup!

Who hunted Montage?

Montage was hunted by Aarav Makadia. 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.
