The website builder that designs first.
The Design tab ships in Loom today. It settles the theme and the page plan before a line of code is written, then hands the build to six Claude Code sessions at once.
Why we built it backwards
Every website generator we tried works the same way: it starts writing code immediately and hopes a design emerges somewhere along the way. The output usually looks like what it is, hundreds of lines of improvisation wearing a default theme. Fixing the look after the fact means fighting the code.
The Design tab inverts the order. The decisions that are cheap to change on paper, the visual direction and the set of pages, get made first, while they are still cheap. Code only gets written once you have approved both. By then the expensive questions are already answered, and six parallel sessions can build without pulling the site in six directions.
The flow
Theme, plan, build. In that order.
Theme first
The build opens with the look. You settle a real visual direction before anything else, so every page that follows is designed against it rather than against a framework default.
Then a page plan
Next the site becomes a plan: which pages it needs and what each one is for. You approve a sitemap in minutes instead of untangling generated markup later.
Then the fleet builds
With the look and the plan locked, the work fans out to the fleet: six real Claude Code CLI sessions building pages in parallel from a brief that was designed, not improvised.
While it builds
You never lose sight of the work.
Watch it live
Loom auto-detects dev servers and opens them in an inline web preview tab, so the site takes shape in front of you, not in another window.
Review every change
Everything the fleet writes lands in git. The source control panel shows diffs and the full graph, so you review the result instead of supervising the process.
Adjust anything
When you want to nudge a detail yourself, the editor is one tab away, with inline AI autocomplete and hunk-by-hunk AI diffs.
