Design system services for SaaS companies

AI made your UI cheap to generate and expensive to keep consistent. We fix the second part.

Where does your SaaS design system break?

Problem

I don't have a real system

Every new feature brings slightly different buttons, tables, spacing and patterns.

Solution

AI follows your design system

We set up a working foundation that AI follows, 
and keep it consistent as you add features.

Problem

Figma doesn't match the product

Components exist in Figma, but developers have their own versions in code.

Solution

One design system for Figma and code

We audit both Figma and code, agree on the correct version and rebuild everything from that one version.

Problem

AI became my design system

Your product increasingly looks like 1000 other AI products.

Solution

Custom components instead 
of generic AI designs

We audit what the product inherited, redesign the components to look like yours, and turn that into rules AI follows.

Problem

I have documentation but AI can't read it

The right components exist, but AI hardcodes values and recreates them anyway.

Solution

Keeping AI and your design system in sync

We turn what’s in your files into rules AI reads, and set up a process where every product change updates the system too.

Problem

AI can read my system but the output 
is inconsistent

Figma is connected, but AI still gets colours, spacing and fonts wrong.

Solution

Fixing inconsistent AI-generated designs

We set up a connection that reads your real tokens and components without the limits, so AI builds from the system, not from a picture of it.

Design systems used to be made for humans. Now AI is one of their users

Before, the system could be incomplete. 
A designer saw a gap and made a call. 
A developer saw an ambiguous spec and asked. Every undefined decision got filled 
in by a person who knew the product.

AI fills the same gaps differently. Where the system doesn't say, it doesn't ask. It picks a default because the existing one wasn't described.

So the system now has to make explicit what people used to infer: which component, in which state, when 
a new one is allowed, and where the rules live so the model actually reads them. That's what we build.

How we build a design system around your product

Most design systems are delivered as a project: an agency audits, builds, documents, and leaves. Six months later, nobody who ships features owns it, and the product drifts back.

We work differently. An Eleken designer joins your team, builds the system, then designs your next features on it. Every gap shows up in real work, gets fixed in real work, and the system is still alive when the designer is done.

Design systems we’ve built for SaaS products

Newton360

Design system implementation from scratch

Figma variables and variable modes, documented components, one source of truth for designers and developers.
Sessionboard

Cleaning up an inconsistent design system

Audited every component variation left by previous teams and rebuilt them with consistent logic, so the system matches the product.
Network Innovations

Design system maintenance for a legacy platform

Redesigned several components first to show the effect on development, then extended the same approach to the whole customer portal.
PayUp

Design system for a fintech product that needed to scale

Organized patterns and rules so the team could add features faster and with fewer errors.

Not sure you need a design system agency?
Start with a free audit.

You don't need to commit to rebuilding your design system to work with us. Give us access to what you already have (Figma, Storybook, component library, or even a product without a proper system yet) and we'll look at how it holds up today.


We'll identify gaps in your design system, mismatches between design and code, and barriers to AI reuse. You'll know what needs fixing first and what already works.

You leave with a clear picture of what needs work and what doesn't.

Got questions?
What is a design system?
A design system is like a detailed guidebook that covers every aspect of design, explaining how and when to use different design elements such as colors, fonts, and more. It helps ensure everything looks and feels consistent across different parts of an application.
Can you make our existing design system AI-ready?
Yes. You don't necessarily need a new system. We can audit what you already have, identify what prevents AI from using it reliably, and fix the highest-impact gaps first.
Does a design system need to exist in code?
Not always. If your team primarily designs in Figma, a well-structured Figma system may be enough. But if developers or AI tools are generating production UI, connecting design decisions to your component library or Storybook makes the system much more useful. We can work Figma-first, code-connected, or across both depending on how your team ships. The time may vary depending on various factors, such as the size and complexity of your specific project, the scope of the design system, and the existing design infrastructure.
Do we need to rebuild our whole design system for AI?
Usually not. We start with the patterns and flows responsible for most of the UI your team ships, then expand the system as needed.
How long does it take to fix the design system?
The audit takes [N] working days. Fixing the core components behind most of your UI is usually [N–N] weeks. After that the designer keeps shipping features on the system for as long as you need; most teams keep them for  [N] months.
Can you create a design system from scratch?
Sure! Our design system governance services include both creating from scratch as well as working with the existing design system, supporting and complementing it.
We have a design system that a previous team or agency started. Can you finish it instead of starting over?
Yes, and it's the most common situation we walk into. We audit what exists, keep what's used, retire what references the old kit, and migrate the rest. Starting over is rare and we'll tell you if it's actually cheaper.
Which AI tools does the system work with?
Cursor, Claude Code, Figma Make, Lovable, v0 and anything that reads a rules file or connects over Figma MCP. We set up whichever your team uses.
