Design-to-code contract platform

Keep design and code telling the same story.

parlance audits your design files, code, live products and native apps against shared UI contracts, glossaries, design tokens and the accessibility standards that matter — so nothing drifts, and everyone ships to one source of truth.

What it does

A contract for your whole design system.

Define it once. Enforce it everywhere your product lives.

UI contracts

Describe what every component must be — structure, properties and states — then hold each surface to it.

Glossaries & tokens

One shared vocabulary for colour, spacing, type and motion, sourced straight from your design tokens.

Accessibility, built in

WCAG 2.2, WAI-ARIA 1.2, Section 508 and EN 301 549 — with live contrast on every colour role.

Drift detection

See the moment design, code and production diverge — well before your users do.

Every surface

Audit design files, codebases, live URLs and native apps against the very same contract.

Light & dark, equally

Both themes are first-class, mode-aware audit targets — never bolted on as an afterthought.

Everywhere your product lives

One contract. Four surfaces.

Design, code, live and native — checked against the same source of truth, so they can never quietly disagree.

Design

Figma files and component libraries.

Code

Your front-end repositories.

Live

Production URLs, in the browser.

Native

iOS and other native apps.

Translate once, ship anywhere

One set of tokens. Every framework.

Define your colour, spacing, type and motion once — parlance translates them into the framework your team actually ships in, across web, iOS and Android. Copy a ready-made declaration straight from any glossary value.

How it works

Up and running in three steps.

01
Define your contracts
Set up glossaries, design tokens and UI contracts — or start from a preset and adapt.
02
Connect your sources
Point parlance at your design files, code, live products and native apps.
03
Audit & enforce
Run audits, triage findings by severity, and keep every surface in line over time.
