Overview

Problem

Design tools are powerful, but overwhelming. Beginners need a creative partner, not a blank canvas.

Tools like Scratch, Grasshopper, or P5.js open incredible creative possibilities, but they’re intimidating for non-coders.

AI-driven “vibe coding” tools like Windsurf or Bolt.new promise to simplify this process, yet many users report:

inconsistent outputs,
limited customization, and
a lack of creative control once the AI generates code.

💡 How might we combine the power of AI generation with the accessibility of visual programming, so designers and artists can create generative art without writing code?

Solution

Combine the intuitiveness of Scratch with the creative intelligence of AI.

Sprout is an AI-assisted generative art tool that lets users describe what they want in natural language, then customize and expand it visually using modular coding blocks.
