The basics

The basics

What is Pixy?

A visual editor that runs on your own website. You open design mode on the real page, change what you see, and your coding agent turns those changes into code. Your repository stays the source of truth.

How is that different from a design tool?

A design tool draws a picture of your product and hands you an export to reproduce. In Pixy the running page is the workspace, so you work with your real content, your real logged-in states and your own CSS. Nothing is redrawn.

Does Pixy change my website?

No. An edit becomes a draft record addressed to a place in your code. The site changes when your agent or your developer builds that record and you ship it.

Do I need an AI agent to use it?

No. A person can read the edits and build them by hand. An agent is simply faster, and any tool that can send an HTTP request can pull the work.

Can I try it before signing up?

This site runs Pixy. Press ⌘⇧E on the home page and edit it. What you do stays in your browser and disappears when you reload.
