AI Assistant and MCP
Describe what you want in your own words and let an AI work on your open project. Use the built-in assistant, or connect any AI tool that supports MCP.
AI in Clate is part of the workspace, not an add-on. Every change an AI makes is a step in the undo history, and the same design tools are open to any AI that supports MCP. See AI Native.

A chat panel inside Clate that reads and changes your design.
The AI Assistant

Set up the assistant

Using the assistant
Chat, review the changes on the canvas, choose a model, and start over.
What to ask the assistant
Examples and tips for requests that work well.
Privacy and your data
What Clate sends to the provider, and what stays on your computer.
