- Stitch’s user interface has been completely redesigned, turning it into a ‘vibe design’ tool
- Users can interact by typing or even talking to Stitch.
- Google hopes more brainstorming will lead to better products
Rustin Banks, product manager at Google Labs, has introduced the company’s latest “vibration” tool: Stitch.
Stitch takes what we already know about vibe coding (the name given to code generation with artificial intelligence) and applies it to the entire concept of software design.
With Stitch, users can start by sharing their intentions, feelings or business goals, rather than precise blueprints, and the generative AI tool gets to work turning those ideas into reality.

Google hopes that Stitch will ultimately encourage users to explore multiple ideas, brainstorm, and engage in self-criticism (with the help of AI, of course), which could lead to higher quality results.
Stitch itself is already an existing product, but the company redesigned the user interface and repurposed the tool as an AI-based “vibe design” assistant. “It now features a new, AI-native, infinite canvas that gives your ideas room to grow from first ideas to working prototypes,” Banks wrote.
The product is also useful for turning static designs into interactive elements, so it’s easy to visualize progress, and automatically generated subsequent screens and user tours give users more instructions for later stages (which they can refine themselves).
But as if the natural language prompts weren’t enough, Google also supports voice commands for a truly collaborative system, making it seem like you’re working with a colleague who is much more efficient at generating results.
“By acting as a sounding board, AI helps you discover your biggest ideas through dynamic critique and dialogue, ensuring you stay in your creative flow,” Banks added.
Finally, the Stitch MCP Server and SDK open up broader capabilities with third-party connections.
Users can try out the new Stitch now, although the company has not confirmed how or if prices will change based on AI token usage.
