Maru

MaruIA as a shared language for generative UI

Maru remembers how you group, structure, prioritize, and name information, so each new interface keeps what you have already built.

SDK: coming soon

Swipe to see the generated UI

Four IA elements

Partition, Hierarchy, Order, and Vocabulary describe the structure you build, and each maps to a UI decision.

Read the framework

Rules from prompts and interactions

Stating a preference in chat, dragging a card to another column, or sorting a table saves an IA rule.

Coming soon

Persistence across generations

Rules carry forward to every new generation. A table can become a kanban, map, or timeline and keep your structure.

See how the app works

Reusable IA layer

We packaged the IA layer as an SDK, separate from Maru's UI, so you can use the same rules in your own GenUI app.

Coming soon
