Create 101

Prototype, validate, and document your product features — all in one place, powered by your design system.

Plan: All

What is Create?

Create is where your entire product team comes together to explore, design, and validate new product ideas.

It’s the home of solution discovery inside Portal — a space where you can build interactive prototypes, write product documentation, and prepare everything for developer handoff.

While Ask mode helps you explore and understand your design system, Create mode helps you use it — connecting real components, tokens, and brand styles to the features you’re building.

In Create, you’re not just designing screens. You’re shaping complete, testable product solutions.

Projects

At the heart of Create mode are Projects — dedicated workspaces where your team collaborates on specific initiatives, features, or experiments.

Each project is directly connected to your design system, ensuring every prototype, document, and handoff stays perfectly aligned with your brand and production design.

Inside a Project, you can:

  • Prototype features using real components, design tokens, and themes from your design system.
  • Write product documents — from PRDs to release notes — alongside your prototypes.
  • Collect feedback (coming soon) from stakeholders and teammates to validate your ideas.
  • Handover to engineers via MCP (Model-Code Pipeline) — allowing reuse of both documentation and prototype code for faster delivery.

Each project is structured into four core sections:

Build

Prototype and iterate ideas using live design data.

Feedback (soon)

Collect feedback on your prototypes.

Documents

Write PRDs, specs, and supporting materials.

Export

Deliver tokens, assets, or generated code to engineering.

How to create a project

There are 2 ways to create a new project.

From Homepage

Click in the Create prompt window and describe what project you want to work on. You can create either a prototype or a document. When you send a prompt, the project is automatically created.

From Sidebar

  1. Hover over Projects in the left navigation or Prompt directly to the homepage.
  2. Click on the “+” button.
  3. Prompt an AI agent to create a new prototype or document.
  4. The project is automatically created right after you send the prompt.
