Common questions

Lingo turns "I know it when I see it" into design words. Tap the looks you like or type how it feels ("make it pop", "too busy"), and it writes a precise design brief with names and values to paste into any AI coding agent or chat.

How do I describe the design I want to an AI coding agent?

Name the look and give values. Instead of "make it nicer", say for example "neutral palette with one accent color for the primary action, 64–96px headline at weight 800 with tight letter-spacing, 16px radius cards". Lingo lets you tap live previews of looks you like and writes this kind of brief for you.

What does "make it pop" actually mean?

Usually more contrast and one strong focal point: a bigger, heavier headline, one saturated accent used only on the main action, and more space around the hero so it stands out. Lingo decodes 20 vague requests like this one.

How do I make an AI-built website not look AI-made?

Avoid the defaults: purple-to-blue gradients and glow blobs, frosted glass cards, a centered hero with a small eyebrow pill, three identical icon cards, emoji used as icons, and vague social proof. Pick one deliberate style and one accent color. Lingo can add these "don't look AI-made" rules to every brief.

What is a bento grid, editorial layout or neo-brutalism?

A bento grid is one grid of tiles in mixed sizes. An editorial layout is asymmetric like a magazine, with an oversized off-center headline. Neo-brutalism uses thick black borders, hard offset shadows and flat bright colors. Lingo shows a live preview of each with the exact values to ask for.

Does Lingo need an account or store my picks?

No account and no server storage. Your picks stay on your device, and a shared link carries them inside the link itself.

Can an AI assistant use Lingo?

Yes. There is a public JSON API (for example GET https://lingo.clawhard.com/api/v1/translate?phrase=make%20it%20pop, see /openapi.json) and the tools lingo_translate, lingo_brief and lingo_list_terms on the Clawhard MCP server at https://mcp.clawhard.com/mcp. Results include a link that opens the brief in Lingo.
