Can You Spot AI Web Design?

Can you spot AI writing? Does “they said the quiet part out loud” send shivers through your spine? Do you feel pain when Claude assures you that code is “load-bearing”? Text and video “slop” is now pretty well spotted, but what about in web design? We’ve built Design MCP as part of Raq.com to help you build websites with a unique design and style, to avoid their website looking like generic AI output.

If you’ve used different models to build websites, try our quiz below to see if you can correctly spot the different design styles of different models, then below that are some examples built giving coding agents access to Raq.com’s Design MCP.

What the models were asked

Each model got an empty folder and one factual file, what-is-raq-com.md. This was the default prompt:

Design and build the best possible homepage for Raq.com in this empty folder. Make it polished, original and professionally designed.

Use ./what-is-raq-com.md as the only source of product information. Do not browse or search the web, follow links, inspect files outside this folder, use MCP or use skills. Do not view or reproduce Raq.com's existing website, branding, code, screenshots or logo.

Create the visual direction and an original Raq.com logo. Use any structure, files, assets, libraries, frameworks or CDNs you think will produce the best result.

Do not ask questions or present options. Complete the website and stop when it is ready.

The defaults

Claude with its own frontend design skill

Claude's own front-end design skill actually just makes designs even more samey.

Here are versions ran with the same design requirements using Raq.com Design MCP

Hence why the designs all follow a similar pattern, but look far less like default output.

Giving Design MCP more freedom and a SOTA model

Here are a few designs where GPT-5.6 Sol was given free reign with Raq.com Design MCP.

Build a website that doesn't look generated

Give your coding agent Design MCP and start from a considered design direction instead of the usual defaults.
