Design toolkit

small tools, zero uploads

Contrast, palettes, type scales, grids, bleed, shadows, SVG shapes, image resizing, quotes and briefs. Each one runs in your browser and takes seconds.

How it works

From first reference to final file

Three steps that cover most of a design project.

01

Collect

Upload references, pull in brand logos, or search open-source icons. Colours and tags are extracted automatically.

02

Curate

Group visuals into moodboards and workspaces, then cut out subjects or build grids to frame the direction.

03

Ship

Animate a logo, size a social post with safe zones, build a footer or brand book, check contrast and bleed in the toolkit, and export SVG ready to paste into your design.

Start with one reference

Upload a visual, pick a colour, animate a logo, and export a footer. Everything stays private until you choose to share it.
