Inspector is an AI IDE for front-end development that bridges visual design and code. Developers can select elements on a live front-end, edit them visually like in Figma, and have the changes written directly to the codebase. The platform connects to AI coding agents such as Cursor, Claude Code and Codex, and provides DOM-aware screenshots, element-specific codebase context and DevTools integration. Inspector also connects to GitHub so users can create branches, commit changes and open pull requests directly. It is part of Y Combinator's Fall 2025 batch.
