What is Generative UI?

Generative UI is an interface paradigm where AI generates and adapts UI elements in real time based on user intent and context. Instead of users adjusting to a fixed interface, the interface adjusts to them.

How is Generative UI different from UI customization?

UI customization modifies content inside a fixed layout. Generative UI modifies the interface itself, showing, hiding, resizing, or rearranging components dynamically based on how each user interacts with the system.

Is Generative UI the same as AI-assisted design tools?

No. AI design tools help designers generate prototypes or mockups. Generative UI is about real-time UI generation with interfaces changing for the end user, not for designers.

Can developers build Generative UI today?

Yes, C1 by Thesys enables real-time UI generation in production apps. Developers can integrate it in 2 lines of code without managing model orchestration or custom rendering pipelines.

Does Generative UI require Gemini 3?

No. Gemini 3 is one implementation example, but Generative UI is model-agnostic. You can build it with GPT-4/5, Claude, Gemini, local models, or any LLM that produces structured output. Tools like C1 by Thesys make this possible across all models.
