Wireframe mode
Generate low-fidelity wireframes to settle structure before visual design.
Last updated
Wireframe mode produces deliberately plain, greyscale screens: boxes, labels and hierarchy, with no brand, no imagery and no styling opinions.
Why bother
Because a beautiful screen ends the conversation. Stakeholders react to the colour instead of the flow. A wireframe keeps the argument on structure, where it belongs early on.
How to use it
Ask for it explicitly:
Wireframe the checkout flow: cart, shipping, payment, confirmation.
Or convert an existing screenshot into a clean wireframe:
Turn this screenshot into a wireframe so we can restructure it.
Going from wireframe to high fidelity
Once the structure is agreed, ask the AI to design the high-fidelity version of the approved wireframes. Structure carries over; the theme is applied on top.
When to skip it
If you're producing a concept for a pitch tomorrow, skip straight to high fidelity. Wireframes earn their keep when several people have to agree on structure first.
