Use Your Design Taste in Any AI Tool (Website)

Design Buildwithtaste
A new platform lets users inject their personal design 'taste' into various AI tools by creating a central, portable profile.
What: Build With Taste allows users to sync their design preferences with tools like Cursor, Claude, Figma Make, and any client supporting the Model Context Protocol. The service provides read-only access to a user's portfolio and collections, requiring OAuth 2.1 for secure integration.
Why it matters: This indicates a shift toward personalized AI workflows where contextual data, such as aesthetic preference or proprietary brand guidelines, becomes a modular component rather than something users must re-prompt for in every session.
Decoder
  • Model Context Protocol (MCP): An open standard that enables developers to build secure, two-way connections between AI models and external data sources or tools.
