Catching small design issues early helps both designers and developers save time and avoid confusion during handoff. Zeplin’s AI Design Review feature helps you spot those details—like spacing inconsistencies, token mismatches, and typos.
With just one click, Zeplin reviews your screen and highlights potential issues with layout, tokens, accessibility, and copy. Think of it as a final checklist before your team delivers the designs for development.
What AI Design Review looks for
AI Design Review focuses on tactical, handoff-ready details—not UX feedback or UI suggestions. It currently checks against 7 categories:
Spelling and grammar: Grammar issues, typos, inconsistent casing.
Layout: Alignment issues or inconsistent positioning.
Contrast: Accessibility, color contrast issues (AA or AAA).
Color, text style, spacing, and components: If you’re using a Zeplin Styleguide, AI will flag mismatches, token issues, or detached components you could clean up.
How to use AI Design Review
Right now, AI Design Review works best on finalized screens that are ready for handoff. It’s not meant to guide early-stage design work or replace your team’s design review process—but it can help you polish the details before shipping.
Select a screen or multiple screens in a project.
Click the “Request reviews” button in the footer menu.
Select “AI design review".
Choose what you want AI to focus on during the review.
Zeplin will scan the screens and surface potential issues in the right-side panel. You can review each feedback, mark them as resolved, or delete them as needed.
Tweaking AI feedback on screens
We’ve seen AI Design Review surface helpful insights so far—but sometimes, it might flag things you’re already aware of or don’t plan to fix just yet. In those cases, you can adjust the review to better fit your workflow by clicking on “Request a change or ask a question…" at the bottom of the screen.
You can always delete and mark reviews as resolved as you wish.
Filtering reviews
By default, Zeplin lists all reviews under all categories. You can filter them by using the ”🐵 Show all” button at the bottom right of your screen.
Accessing all AI reviews
Zeplin lists all review and approval request batches on the same view. To see all AI review requests, click on the Reviews button at the top-right side of the project
dashboard, click your batch to open the AI review view.
☝️ From the workspace settings, you can manage access to AI-powered features like AI Organize and AI Design Review — enabling or disabling them for your workspace members as needed.
