Move faster without losing the thinking.
Ai is accelerating design work. DesignTrace helps product designers keep the reasoning, trade-offs, and stakeholder context traceable as decisions evolve.
THE PROBLEM
Design thinking disappears between tools.
Design thinking disappears between tools.
Feedback lands in Slack. Decisions happen in meetings. Rationale lives in someone’s memory. By the time a new designer joins — or a stakeholder revisits a decision — the thinking is gone.

Scattered feedback
Comments live across Figma, Slack, docs, and calls.
Lost rationale
Teams remember the outcome, not why it was chosen.
Repeated debates
Decisions reopen because the context was never captured.
More options, less traceability
Ai generates more directions, but the reasoning behind decisions becomes harder to trace.

THE SOLUTION
A traceable home for design decisions.
A traceable home for design decisions.
✦
Capture decisions fast
Record the rationale, trade-offs, and final direction before the context disappears — in under 2 minutes.
⇄
Compare directions
Document multiple solution paths and the reasoning that led to the final call.
◎
Preserve stakeholder context
Keep feedback from reviews, meetings, and async threads connected to the design.
⟳
Build a traceable history
Every project accumulates a design memory your whole team can reference.
⚡️
Align faster
Stop re-explaining. Share a link to the full decision context instead.
✧
Ai-powered context
Let Ai generate descriptions, surface trade-offs, and optimise review summaries.
HOW IT WORKS
From design artifact to memory in minutes.
Create structure and accountability
Bring the right stakeholders into the conversation and make decisions visible. Assign reviewers, capture feedback, and ensure every review has clear ownership and outcomes.
Keep design history organized
Track versions, alternatives and approvals without losing context. Understand which direction moved forward, what was explored, and how a design evolved over time.
Centralise feedback and tradeoffs
Capture the reasoning behind decisions while it's still fresh. Bring feedback, risks, trade-offs and stakeholder perspectives together alongside the work they relate to.
Build a searchable design memory
Turn decisions into a lasting asset. Every review and decision becomes part of a searchable history that helps teams stay aligned and revisit decisions confidently.

Today, DesignTrace helps designers capture decisions, trade-offs, reviews, and rationale. Next, it will help teams ask questions across that history — surfacing blockers, repeated feedback themes, stakeholder bottlenecks, reopened decisions, and whether iteration cycles are improving.
