I thought generating UI was the hard part — I was wrong

I launched an AI UI tool recently, and I think I misunderstood the problem at first.

I thought the hard part was generating UI.

It’s not.

The real problem is:
→ making the output usable without spending more time fixing it than building it

What I keep running into:

• UI looks good… but breaks under real usage
• accessibility is there, but shallow
• structure isn’t really reusable
• edge cases fall apart fast

So instead of saving time, you end up shifting the work:
from “build” → to “fix”

That’s been the frustrating part.

Lately I’ve been thinking the missing layer is:

→ a “production-ready baseline”

Not perfect code
Not final product

Just something you don’t have to fight with

Curious if others building with AI tools are seeing the same thing?

Or am I overthinking it?
