pencil.dev has rebranded as pen.dev, launching an agentic canvas for building software. Its headline feature: import any website or web app onto the canvas, iterate on it with agents, and push changes back to code.
Key details:
- Brings any model to the canvas — Claude, OpenAI, Grok, Qwen, Gemini, Kimi, DeepSeek, MiniMax — via ChatGPT/Claude subscriptions, API keys, or MCP/WebMCP/CLI
- Custom WebGL pipeline keeps thousands of layers smooth while panning and zooming
- HTML import, Figma import, built-in browser for importing live pages, Vibe Shaders for real-time GPU effects, AI Pen for agent-drawn icons, shared UI component libraries
- Figma/Sketch-compatible shortcuts; multi-resolution export (1x, 2x, …)
- Connects to Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or any agent over MCP, plus a headless pen.dev CLI for design automation
