Builder helps product teams create prototypes and business applications with AI. Built-in capabilities — like authentication, security and privacy reviews, and centralized governance — ensure you can build responsibly without compromising IT standards. Now, you can set up a design system for each application to meet your brand standards, too.\n\nUse design systems in Aha! Builder to fine-tune every color, font, and component to match your brand.\n\n## Use your design system\n\nA polished, on-brand prototype or application starts with consistent design. [Aha! Builder](/builder/overview) now includes a dedicated design system workflow for defining how an application should look. Point Elle (the AI assistant) to screenshots or design files, or describe the experience you want to create. Elle generates a design system, then applies it throughout the application.\n\nHere is what you can do:\n\n**Create:** Work with Elle to define the design system — including the color palette, typography, and density for each application.**Review:** Browse the gallery of colors, typography, layouts, shapes, and components.**Refine:** Adjust specific elements in the design system using the selection tool and by chatting with Elle.**Customize:** Build custom components, such as cards, site headers, and animations.\n\nNow, it is easier to create prototypes and applications that look more like your product — without manually restyling every screen. You will soon be able to reuse one design system across builds in your account.\n\nDesign systems are available for Aha! Builder customers on the [Team and Scale plans](/builder/pricing). Owners can create, refine, and reuse design systems; administrators can see which design system each application uses.
