Navigation, buttons, cards, forms, type — the parts people touch. The AI rebuilds them to current interface conventions and returns components rather than pictures.

Updating the interface without redesigning the site
UI is a narrower thing than design. It's the set of components a visitor interacts with, and it dates faster than layout because interface conventions move quickly — what a button, a form field or a mobile menu is expected to look like has changed more in five years than page structure has.
Where interface conventions have moved
Buttons have flattened and grown: larger tap targets, clearer disabled and hover states, less ornament. Form fields have gained visible labels back, after a spell of placeholder-only inputs that failed accessibility badly. Cards have lost their heavy shadows in favour of hairline borders. Mobile navigation has largely settled on a full-height overlay rather than a cramped dropdown.
A site built to the previous set of conventions reads as old even when the layout is fine.
Components, not screenshots
Updating UI is only useful if you can adopt the result. The generated interface arrives as markup and styles you can lift piece by piece — the new button treatment, the new form, the new nav — rather than as a design that then needs implementing.
That also makes partial adoption practical. Updating your forms and leaving everything else is a legitimate outcome.
States are part of the job
Interfaces fail in their states more often than in their default appearance: the hover that doesn't register, the focus ring that was removed for looking untidy, the error message that appears in a colour nobody can read against the background.
Generated components carry hover, focus and disabled treatments as part of the component rather than as an afterthought, which is where a hand-patched interface usually has gaps.
Common questions
Can I update the UI without touching the page layout?
Yes. Generate the page, then take only the component styles you want — buttons, forms, navigation — and leave the layout as it is.
Does this cover accessibility?
Generated components include visible focus states and labelled form fields, which are two of the most commonly missing pieces. It isn't a substitute for an accessibility audit of your whole site.
What about interactive behaviour, not just appearance?
You get the markup and styling, including state treatments. Anything wired to your backend — form submission, authentication — still needs connecting.
Will updated components clash with my existing CSS?
They can, if your stylesheet has broad selectors. Scoping the new component styles, or adopting them a section at a time, avoids most of it.
Start with the component your visitors touch most — usually the primary call to action or the contact form.
