About this project

Pitch

Most AI writing tools were built for novelists, marketers, or "knowledge workers." None of them were built for the person whose job is to write captions for buttons, push titles, empty states, and the awkward two-sentence onboarding nobody volunteered for. Brushwork is.

The editor is a single text field with a few buttons: shorten, lengthen, neutral tone, sharper tone, more design-y. There's no chat. There's no model picker. There's no infinite right rail of "suggestions." It's the smallest thing that solves the actual problem — getting copy in a Figma frame that doesn't sound like it was written by your CEO at 11pm.

Brushwork knows your component library. You drop in a Figma link and it reads the existing copy patterns — your tone, your title-case rules, your maximum character counts per component — and writes inside those constraints. Designers stop being copywriters. The product gets shipped on Tuesday instead of Friday.
