👋 Hey folks,
Parikshit here, co-founder of Thesys.
Thrilled to share what we’ve been building: C1, the world’s first Generative UI API 🚀
Most AI apps are still stuck in the terminal era, type a prompt, get a wall of text.
It works, but it’s primitive. AI is unlocking infinite user journeys, but most UIs are static and hardcoded. We built C1 so the interface can finally keep up with the intelligence behind AI-native products.
What is C1?
C1 is an API middleware that augments LLMs to respond with live, interactive UI like forms, charts, cards, dashboards instead of plain text.
What can C1 do?
➡️ One-line setup: npx create-c1-app
➡️ Works with any AI stack (OpenAI-compatible, any framework or MCP)
➡️ Customizable and responsive to your brand
➡️ Supports all tool-calls (databases, documents, APIs)
➡️ Configurable actions, callbacks, and workflows out of the box
➡️ Handles streaming, error states, and production-ready UI flows
➡️ Plug in your own React components with state, logic, and validation
Why does it matter?
✅ Ship interactive AI apps 10x faster
✅ Cut 80% of frontend maintenance costs
✅ Create experiences 83% of users prefer
From copilots to dashboards, e-commerce to search, C1 turns model responses into production-ready interfaces, no manual wiring required.

@bhu_1 C1 by Thesys is the answer to "what if every ChatGPT response was designed and rendered live but still delivered in realtime"
If you are building an AI agent or a AI workflow, C1 by Thesys would fit right in
