Great question!

I suck at web design, so I built a novel tool [0] that streamlines this flow:

webpage —> screen capture —> LLM prompt —> design feedback

It’s a browser extension that lets you capture a portion of the webpage —> the image gets sent to an LLM with a prompt —> the LLM gives design feedback inside the extension

As far as I know, this is the only tool I’ve seen that does this, and it’s completely free. It’s called Design CoPilot, and I haven’t done any real marketing yet as it’s in Beta.

Before I built this, I would manually screen capture components, then go to ChatGPT and drop the image, write a prompt telling ChatGPT it’s a design expert and I want design feedback, and then read its reply and implement the feedback.

I’d greatly appreciate if you try the tool and leave a review!

Just a quick thought about the name. Microsoft/GitHub's coding assistant is Copilot. If your project gets traction, I'm certain you will receive a cease and desist letter for using the name Design CoPilot.
Good point, I’m not too worried at this stage but if they send me something I’ll just change it to something else
