SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The Interface Auditor identifies observable UI/UX antipatterns and launch-blocking issues so teams can prioritize fixes and reduce user friction before release. It converts ambiguous design concerns into evidence-backed, severity-scored findings with concrete remediation guidance.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Critical-first scanning: Immediately surface and prioritize critical violations (8-10) that must be fixed before launch.
  • 168-principle taxonomy: Map findings to a research-backed taxonomy with severity scores, realistic fix effort estimates, and quantified business impact where applicable.
  • Multi-input support: Audit screenshots, HTML or frontend code, and textual interface descriptions to produce a structured triage report useful for designers, PMs, and engineers.
  • Deliverables for triage: Structured JSON output including findings, ux_smells, gaps, aggregated score, grade, and a launch_blocker flag for scoping redesigns or pre-launch checklists.

Quick Start

Audit the attached screenshot or UI description and return a structured JSON report with severity-scored findings, evidence, and recommended fixes.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit UI for antipatterns and launch blockers before release?

To audit UI for antipatterns and launch blockers, submit screenshots, HTML, code snippets, or textual interface descriptions. The system applies a 168-principle taxonomy to generate a structured JSON report containing severity-scored findings, evidence, and remediation guidance.

What is a UI UX audit and how does severity scoring work?

A UI UX audit identifies observable interface antipatterns using a research-backed taxonomy. Severity scoring evaluates findings on a critical-to-low scale, with critical violations scoring 8-10, mapping symptoms to concrete evidence locations and estimated fix efforts for redesign triage.

Can I audit a dashboard or onboarding flow using only a screenshot?

Yes, you can audit dashboards, onboarding flows, forms, and AI assistant interfaces using only a screenshot. The auditor accepts visual inputs alongside HTML, code snippets, or textual descriptions to detect UX smells and generate prioritized findings.

What's the best way to prioritize UX findings for a redesign?

The best way to prioritize UX findings for a redesign is using a structured JSON triage report. The auditor outputs a launch_blocker flag, severity scores, overall grade, and realistic effort estimates to help teams scope fixes and reduce user friction.

Does the interface audit output include fix recommendations with effort estimates?

Yes, the interface audit output includes fix recommendations with effort estimates. The structured JSON deliverable contains concrete symptoms, evidence locations, ux_smells, gaps, an overall grade, and a launch_blocker flag for pre-launch checklists.
