What tools give useful design critique on an interface?
The ones that critique against a stated standard — your design system, or a named reference — rather than against generic taste. Ask for hierarchy and usability problems specifically; open-ended feedback returns compliments.

What to look for
- 01Can it see the rendered page, or only the code? Screenshot-based critique catches layout problems that reading JSX cannot.
- 02Does it critique against your system or its own preferences? The second produces churn.
- 03Does it rank problems? Ten equal-weight observations are less useful than the two that matter.
Common questions
- Can an AI critique visual design, or only usability?
- Both, but the reliability differs. Usability and hierarchy problems are stated in structure and get caught consistently. Aesthetic judgment is only as good as the reference you give it.
- How do I get past generic feedback?
- Give it the design system and ask for violations, or name a specific reference and ask how the screen differs. Unanchored critique defaults to reassurance.
