Launch YC: AChordio - AI-powered design reviews that guard your standards

"Remove QA grunt work, catch issues early, and ship polished interfaces with confidence."


Founded by
Ehud Halberstam & Amit Bar

👋 The founders are excited to introduce Chordio, an AI-powered design review tool for designers.

The Problem

As generative AI increases the pace of design work, maintaining quality through manual review is quickly becoming impossible. Manual review is slow, inconsistent, and costly. Mistakes slip through, standards drift, and QA turns into a painful bottleneck.

Teams need a better way to answer, “Is this good?” for every design, every time.

The Solution

Chordio is an AI-powered design review tool purpose-built to help product teams raise the quality bar and reduce overhead as they scale up their output. Here’s how it helps:

  • Enforces Quality and Standards: Chordio checks your designs against your organization’s unique standards, not just generic best practices. You get actionable, relevant feedback that aligns with your team’s guidelines.
  • Scales Best Practices: By automating reviews and surfacing helpful resources, Chordio makes it easy for teams of any size to consistently apply best practices and grow design maturity.
  • Shifts Review Left: With their Figma plugin, designers can catch and fix issues early—when changes are cheap and easy.
  • Reduces Friction: Chordio proactively flags issues before hand-off, so designers, developers, and QA don’t need to play “catch up” later. Fewer last-minute surprises mean less frustration and less design debt.
  • Broad Review Capabilities: Their Chrome extension lets you review any webpage, in Staging or Production, so you get broader test coverage.

The Backstory

While building a design assistant, the founders realized how much teams view QA as a burdensome overhead. They noticed that as AI-generated designs become the norm, the gap between design and QA capacity grows wider. The need for a smarter, faster way to review designs became urgent.

That’s why Chordio was built. The goal is to help every product team answer “Is this good?” confidently and at scale.

Try Chordio

If you’re a designer, product manager, or engineer who cares about quality and wants to keep moving fast, the founders would love for you to give Chordio a try. Your feedback will help them shape the future of automated design review.
