What is Breakdance?
Breakdance 3.0 makes AI a first-class site builder alongside its Oxygen sibling.
Breakdance's 3.0 headline is AI: an agent now works directly with the builder to create pages, templates, headers, footers, selectors, variables, responsive styles, and dynamic data. It lands the same day as sister product Oxygen 6.2's identical capability, and follows a 2.7 to 2.8 line focused on accessibility, security, and multi-element editing.
What is Kittl?
Kittl goes agentic: design by intent, with the tools you use wired in.
Kittl is a browser-based design tool that has moved aggressively into AI-native creation. Its weekly product-update cadence carries steady craft improvements (brand kits, on-brand generation), but the last two headline releases are directional: an Apps panel that pulls external tools into the canvas, and now an Agentic AI mode that shifts creation from manual prompt-and-parameter tuning toward stating intent and letting the system drive. Kittl is compressing the distance between idea and finished design.

Breakdance
6.3DESIGN
Breakdance 3.0 makes AI a first-class site builder alongside its Oxygen sibling.
◆ Current state
Breakdance's 3.0 headline is AI: an agent now works directly with the builder to create pages, templates, headers, footers, selectors, variables, responsive styles, and dynamic data. It lands the same day as sister product Oxygen 6.2's identical capability, and follows a 2.7 to 2.8 line focused on accessibility, security, and multi-element editing.
◆ Where it's heading
Breakdance is making the same agent-operability bet as Oxygen: manual visual building and AI-driven building become interchangeable modes on the same canvas. The recent 2.x work, accessibility, security hardening, multi-select, variable fonts, is the foundation the agent now drives.
◆ Prediction
Expect 3.x to expand agent-built workflows and keep parity with Oxygen, as the shared maker pushes both plugins toward agent-first site construction.
Kittl
7.5DESIGN
Kittl goes agentic: design by intent, with the tools you use wired in.
◆ Current state
Kittl is a browser-based design tool that has moved aggressively into AI-native creation. Its weekly product-update cadence carries steady craft improvements (brand kits, on-brand generation), but the last two headline releases are directional: an Apps panel that pulls external tools into the canvas, and now an Agentic AI mode that shifts creation from manual prompt-and-parameter tuning toward stating intent and letting the system drive. Kittl is compressing the distance between idea and finished design.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is consolidating the whole design workflow inside one surface — first by integrating outside tools (Apps), then by automating the decision-making inside creation (Agentic AI). Together they point at Kittl as an AI design environment where the user sets direction and the agent handles model, format, and style choices, with connected services feeding assets and distribution.
◆ Prediction
Expect Kittl to widen the Apps ecosystem and give the agent more reach — chaining multi-step design tasks and acting across the connected apps rather than generating single artifacts.
