What they do

Problem

Product teams struggle to maintain high-quality, consistent UX and brand identity while shipping quickly with AI-assisted development due to unreliable or poorly documented design systems.

Solution

zeroheight is a platform for documenting, managing, and refining AI-optimized design systems to support faster development without compromising user experience.

Who it's for

Product and design teams building software products, often alongside developers using AI coding agents.

Founders

Jerome de Lafargue
Founder & CEO

Based in the UK near London. Software engineer at heart with a passion for design. Studied CS at Imperial College, London then went on to work as a mobile app developer at Bloomberg. There I met my co-founder, Robin, a fellow software engineer. We witnessed first-hand the gap between design and development, and in 2016 we went all-in on design systems to solve it!
