{"id":88483,"title":"Tempo V2: Build React Apps 10X Faster With AI","tagline":"Tempo is where designers and developers collaborate on code","body":"### **TL;DR**\n\nTempo is a visual IDE that enables designers, PMs, and developers to collaborate on code with the help of AI. In addition to prompting, Tempo gives you the fine-grain control that comes from a traditional design editor or code editor.\n\nIn V2, we introduce our [Figma Plugin](https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1463689183126672406/tempo-ai-powered-figma-to-code-react), new AI reasoning + Gemini Search, [pre-built SaaS templates](https://tempolabsinc.mintlify.app/SaasTemplates) (for Stripe, Polar, Supabase, Convex+Clerk), and Expo support for react-native mobile apps. Watch our demo, [here](https://youtu.be/Sup921tMUf4).\n\n**The problem?** \n\n“Low-code” and “design to code” tools suck. As much as they accelerate the development process for simple apps, none have succeeded at helping serious software companies ship production-grade software. \n\nNew AI-powered web app builders take a code-first approach that is superior, however, they still struggle with complex apps and large codebases.\n\n**How we are solving it**\n\nTempo redefines the development workflow by combining the best of an IDE (like VS Code), a design tool (like Figma), and an AI chat assistant that enhances both—creating a single source of truth for designers and developers. Whether you’re a non-technical builder or a seasoned engineer, Tempo streamlines the process from concept to production.\n\nWith **V2, Tempo introduces:**\n\n🎨 **A fine-grain design panel** for pixel-perfect control\n\n🖼️ **A Figma plugin** that converts your designs to code in Tempo\n\n🧠 **Enhanced AI reasoning + Gemini Search** for faster debugging and development.\n\n⚡ **Pre-built SaaS templates** for Stripe, Polar, Supabase, Convex + Clerk.\n\n📱 **Expo support** for mobile app development with react native.\n\n**Teams use Tempo to:**\n\n* Build production grade applications.\n* Rapidly generate and refine prototypes.\n* Visually collaborate on production code.\n* Ship UIs that are pixel-perfect, every time.\n\nThe interface feels like your favourite design tool but works like an IDE. Teams using tempo ship to production 10x faster by adopting a code-first workflow.\n\n**What are we looking for?** \n\nSimply put—build, share, and showcase what you’ve created. Tag us in your [X](https://x.com/Tempo_Labs), [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/tempolabs/), or other posts, and we’ll amplify it to the community. Also please share your feedback.\n\nNeed additional support to accelerate your product roadmap? [Agent+](https://www.tempo.new/ai-agent-plus) can help accelerate your roadmap—designing and shipping 1-3 features per week. YC companies get $500 off for the first 3 months. Let’s build faster, together.\n\n**About Us:** \n\nFounders [Kevin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevin1michael/) and [Peter](https://www.linkedin.com/in/petergokhshteyn/) previously worked at Microsoft, Google, and Perpetua. They are building Tempo to help teams go from idea to production in minutes.","slug":"N19-tempo-v2-build-react-apps-10x-faster-with-ai","created_at":"2025-03-11T17:41:51.665Z","updated_at":"2026-05-25T00:37:13.369Z","total_vote_count":52,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/N19-tempo-v2-build-react-apps-10x-faster-with-ai","share_image_url":"//bookface-static.ycombinator.com/assets/ycdc/yc-og-image-c440a0ad1dacfb86eeeb343717479cc54d256614449b4ef719977a0a451f8bc8.png","company":{"id":29150,"name":"Tempo","slug":"tempo-2","url":"https://www.tempo.new","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/860f478b7cd2ea33eefb86e90c9c693abef2997f.png","batch":"Summer 2023","industry":"B2B","tags":["Artificial Intelligence","Developer Tools","B2B","Design Tools","AI"],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/29150"}}
