UXPin is rebuilding around Forge, its AI UI generator, and racing past per-screen prompting toward whole-flow generation.

Current state
UXPin's center of gravity has shifted entirely to Forge, the AI UI system it launched in February 2026. Every release since has extended Forge — Sonnet 4.6 backing, URL-to-UI generation in March, custom library instructions in April, and now whole-flow generation from a single prompt in May. The classic UXPin design canvas still exists but reads as the surface Forge generates into rather than the product's center.
Where it's heading
UXPin is positioning Forge as the layer between product spec and design — describe a flow, get a sequence of consistent screens that respect your component library. The trajectory is clear and aggressive: each release closes another step where designers used to do manual work. Expect Forge to keep moving up the stack, from screen generation to flow generation to interactive prototypes that actually run.
Prediction
Watch for Forge to gain code-level fidelity that competes with Vercel's v0, Lovable, and Bolt — generating real React components against the user's actual library, not mock-ups. The 'respect custom library instructions' April update is the first hint of that direction.

    Generate complete flows from a single prompt with Forge

    ⚡ SPARK

    Forge can now generate a full multi-screen flow from a single prompt — checkout, onboarding, settings — with consistent structure, copy, and direction across screens, plus a live task list showing what's being built. The biggest capability extension since Forge's launch.

    April 2026 Update

    April update: AI-generated JSX now respects custom library instructions, so requests like 'don't use generic H1 tags' get honored. Real correctness fix for teams using Forge with their own component systems.

    Generate UI from a website URL

    Forge can generate UI from a website URL — paste a link, get a recreated or similar layout built against your project's component library. Useful starting point for inspiration-driven projects, narrower than full flow generation.

    Claude Sonnet 4.6 in Forge

    Claude Sonnet 4.6 became the model behind Forge, with cleaner generations and fewer iterations. Standard model-bump release; meaningful for output quality without changing the product's direction.

    Introducing Forge: AI built for iterative UI creation

    ⚡ SPARK

    The Forge launch was the directional moment — UXPin replaced its previous AI workflow with a conversational, iterative AI system as the primary interface for UI creation in the editor. Every release since builds on this thesis.

    December 2025 update

    December update added GPT-5.1 to AI features and retired GPT-3.5, plus pricing and AI-usage updates. Standard model rotation and plan adjustment ahead of the Forge launch two months later.
