# Metacarbon

> Agents & Humans Design Company. Design direction, experience strategy, and design engineering for companies building AI products.

Metacarbon is a human + agent design company. We do product thinking, AI-interaction strategy, and ship production-grade UI in code. Designers who ship at engineering speed — human craft, agentic workflows, and product thinking working as one.

Our method is steering between synthetic and organic: repetitive patterns and token systems are generated; onboarding flows, retention strategy, and brand moments are human craft. Code stays linked to Figma through a bidirectional pipeline; tokens, components, and design rules are served to humans and agents alike via MCP.

## Core pages

- [Home](https://metacarbon.com/): Overview of services, selected work, methodology, and team.
- [Methodology](https://metacarbon.com/methodology): How we work — disciplines (system design, UX, engineering, AI instruction, visual, motion), contextual toolset (Figma, code, MCP, generative UI, agents), and key expertise (experience strategy, UI design, design engineering, rapid building).
- [Design Engineering](https://metacarbon.com/design-engineering): Design infra and orchestration in your repo. Token Studio, components in your codebase with Storybook + Chromatic + Code Connect, and rules agents can follow via MCP. When to hire it: slow iterations, scattered design context, engineers shipping without designers, Figma diverging from production, stale component libraries, AI copilots breaking conventions.
- [Career](https://metacarbon.com/career): Always-open roles for Product Designers (set the direction) and Design Engineers (carry it into code). Apply: hello@metacarbon.com.
