AI-Native Design Studio
Turn design bottlenecks into automated workflows
Cantravo deploys AI design systems that cut production time by 60%. We integrate Stable Diffusion, ChatGPT, and Figma APIs into repeatable processes your team actually uses.
Six AI design services that reduce costs and speed delivery
AI Design System Architecture
We map your brand to a parametric design system using Figma Variables, token taxonomies, and GPT-4 style guides that enforce consistency across 200+ assets.
- Figma Variable setup with 8-point grid systems
- Token JSON exports for React, Vue, Tailwind
- Custom GPT brand voice and visual rules
- Design QA automation via Figma API
Generative Asset Production
Deploy Midjourney and Stable Diffusion pipelines that produce on-brand imagery, icons, and illustrations at 10x the speed of manual design work.
- Custom LoRA model training on your brand
- ComfyUI workflow templates for repeatable output
- Batch processing scripts for 500+ asset sets
AI-Assisted UX/UI Design
Combine ChatGPT research synthesis, Figma plugin automation, and heuristic analysis tools to validate designs in hours, not weeks.
- User interview analysis via GPT-4 summarization
- Automated accessibility audits (WCAG 2.2 AA)
- A/B test mockup generation from prompts
- Heatmap prediction using attention models
Custom AI Design Tools
We build internal tools: brand compliance checkers, automated resizing engines, and design-to-code plugins that fit your existing Figma and Webflow stack.
- Figma plugins in TypeScript for brand enforcement
- Zapier/Make integrations for asset pipelines
- Slack bots for design request triage
Team Training & Onboarding
Half-day workshops on Midjourney prompting, GPT-powered copywriting, and AI design ethics. Your designers ship AI work within the first week.
- 4-hour hands-on Midjourney + ChatGPT sessions
- Prompt library templates and guardrails
- Monthly office hours for 3 months post-launch
AI Design Audits
We analyze your design process, identify 3-5 automation opportunities, and deliver a 12-page roadmap with ROI projections and tool recommendations.
- Process mapping with stakeholder interviews
- Tool stack analysis (Figma, Adobe, Webflow)
- Custom ROI model based on your hourly rates
- Priority matrix: quick wins vs. long-term bets
Why 34 Canadian companies chose Cantravo over freelance AI designers
01
Midjourney + Stable Diffusion Expertise
We've fine-tuned 23 custom LoRA models for Canadian brands. Our ComfyUI workflows produce batch assets with 92% brand compliance on first generation, eliminating revision rounds.
02
Figma API & Plugin Development
Cantravo builds TypeScript plugins that automate token updates, enforce design system rules, and export production-ready code. Deployed in 6 enterprise design teams across Toronto and Vancouver.
03
Ethical AI & Bias Mitigation
Every project includes a fairness audit using IBM AI Fairness 360 and model card documentation. We follow Canada's AIDA framework and ensure WCAG 2.2 compliance on all outputs.
Common questions from teams exploring AI design workflows
Do you train our team to use AI tools, or do we become dependent on Cantravo for every project?+
Every engagement includes knowledge transfer. We document every workflow in Notion, record Loom tutorials, and run live training sessions. Most clients operate independently after 6 weeks, with optional monthly office hours for edge cases.
How do you ensure AI-generated designs don't infringe copyright or reproduce biased imagery?+
We train custom LoRA models exclusively on your licensed assets or public domain sources. Every output runs through IBM AI Fairness 360 bias detection and CLIP-based similarity checks against known copyrighted work. Full model cards document training data lineage.
What design tools and software do you integrate with?+
Primary stack: Figma, Adobe Creative Cloud, Webflow, Framer. AI tools: Midjourney, Stable Diffusion (ComfyUI), ChatGPT API, DALL·E 3. We also build Zapier/Make workflows and REST API integrations for custom tools. If you use Sketch or Penpot, we adapt.
Can you handle both branding and product UI design, or do you specialize in one?+
We do both. Brand work includes logo suites, style guides, and asset libraries. Product work covers UX research synthesis, UI component systems, and design-to-code handoff. 60% of clients hire us for end-to-end projects spanning both.
What's the typical timeline and cost for an AI design system build?+
Standard system: 3 weeks, $18K–$28K CAD depending on component count and integrations. Enterprise system with custom tooling: 6–8 weeks, $45K–$75K. Audits start at $4,500 for a 1-week engagement. All pricing includes training and 30-day support.
Do you work with startups, or only established companies with design teams?+
Both. Startups get lean workflows: prompt libraries, Figma templates, and ChatGPT setup in 1-2 weeks. Enterprises get custom plugins, LoRA training, and team onboarding. 40% of our clients are pre-Series A; 60% are growth-stage or enterprise.
