Dessn provides a design tool that runs customers' codebases in the cloud without setup by abstracting away runtime dependencies, enabling designers to work directly within a production environment. The product is intended for teams with an existing codebase who want to iterate on live projects rather than for ground-up ideation. Dessn says this approach eases handoffs to developers and supports sharing via public links. The company has early customers including Color, Wispr, and Mercury and offers a free tier (one repository compile and five prompts per week) plus paid plans starting at $39 per user per month. Dessn plans to add integrations such as Slack and meeting notetakers while explicitly avoiding a Figma integration. Founded by Gabriella Hachem and Nim Cheema about two years ago, the company currently has four employees and intends to remain small while hiring a few additional team members.
