Drift report 1: USWDS, measured against its own Figma kit.
We captured 40 pages of designsystem.digital.gov with Stage1 and compared what they render with the Figma kit the USWDS team publishes.

- Product UX
- AI in practice
Make your product, your system and your AI agree.
We work with design teams, front-end engineers and product teams bringing AI into what they build and how they build it. Every offer runs on a tool anyone can install, so you can check how we work before you ever talk to us.
Site plan, with the route to a conversation in pencil
Four ways in.
- Drift Audit See where your product and your design system have drifted apart.
- AI Workshops & Training A shared way of working with AI, with context and decisions that carry between people and sessions.
- Object-Oriented Design Systems Keep your design system and layer your product’s objects on it, so agents build screens from them.
- Product & UX Leadership Complex product UX and information architecture, scoped accessibility reviews, and fractional design and systems leadership.
The tools are the proof.
Every offer is something we run with a tool anyone can install, so you can check our work before you talk to us.

The latest release of each tool, read from npm.
Meaning is the artifact.
The screens your customers use are projections of something underneath: the objects your product is made of, what they’re allowed to do, and who can do it.
