About
A modern design tool that connects teams, agents, code, and data on a single HTML/CSS-based canvas. It enables seamless collaboration between designers and developers with real-time sync between design and code, eliminating translation issues in the design-to-development workflow.
What it does
Paper's site describes it as a canvas for teams and agents to work together, connecting code, data, and design in one place built on web standards. It says agents can connect over MCP to sync design tokens and styles with a codebase, and that the canvas exports as HTML/CSS.
