Sketch to UI

Turn a whiteboard photo or paper wireframe into a polished digital interface.

Photograph your sketch, upload it, and get a real screen.

Steps

  1. Photograph the sketch straight on, in even light, with the whole drawing in frame.
  2. Upload it in the prompt box.
  3. Add the context the drawing can't carry: what the product is, what the boxes mean, the visual direction.

A sketch of our onboarding screen. The big box top-left is a video, the three stacked boxes are setup steps with checkmarks. Modern SaaS look, purple accent.

Making sketches read well

  • Label your boxes. "hero", "nav", "chart" — written labels are read and used.
  • Draw the hierarchy. Bigger boxes become bigger elements.
  • Avoid heavy shading. Line drawings read more reliably than shaded ones.
  • One screen per photo, unless you're deliberately handing over a flow.

Sketch to wireframe instead

If you want to stay low-fidelity — clean up the sketch without committing to a visual style — ask for a wireframe. See Wireframe mode.
