Tempo Labs
AI Agents for Frontend Design and Development
Tempo Labs (YC S23) is building AI agents for frontend design and development. We sell completed designs and pull requests, helping teams scale frontend development without hiring additional staff. Our secret sauce is our code-based design tool (which replaces figma) and our human-in-the-loop review process which guarantees output quality
Jobs at Tempo Labs
Active Founders
Kevin Michael, Founder
Spent the last 5 years as founding engineer and head of product at Perpetua ($150M exit). Previously product fellow at Social Capital and engineer on the Visual Studio team at Microsoft. I've tried every low-code tool on the market and not a single one does a good job integrating with existing production codebases. I'm obsessed with solving this problem at Tempo and using AI to turn anyone into a 10X engineer.
Peter Gokhshteyn, Founder
Passionate about building great products fast. Joined Perpetua ($150M exit) 6 years ago as employee #3 and led the engineering team from idea to PMF. Previous worked as a software developer at Google, Bloomberg & Zynga.
Company Launches
TL;DR: Tempo is an AI design & prototyping tool which contributes high-quality react code directly to your codebase. You can use tempo to generate complete views using simple AI prompts, polish & control design details visually, and build a high quality design system using your existing components.

Hey Everyone, Kevin & Peter here, we’re the founders of Tempo Labs.
The Problem
While building our last startup (Perpetua), we spent a lot of time looking for ways to speed up the pace of our development and prototyping. We tried every low-code tool on the market and were constantly disappointed by how poorly they integrated with our existing codebase. Figma ended up being our de facto tool for testing concepts but Figma prototypes always felt low-fidelity and took way too long to ship to production.
The Solution
Tempo is the design and prototyping tool we wish existed. Tempo integrates with any react project and empowers designers to collaborate with engineers directly on the codebase. Powered by AI, tempo generates 60%-80% of the front-end code required for any feature so engineers are free to focus on writing business logic rather than css. By eliminating the design->code translation process we help teams ship their ideas to production 10X faster.
The Ask
If you’re building a react app and are interested in testing us out please email me at kevin@tempolabs.ai. If you already have a design system we’ll give you a visual playground to build new views, if you don’t, we’ll help you implement one! If your app looks like crap, or your codebase feels hard to maintain, get in touch - we’ll help you level up your front-end using AI :)
