Company profile
researched Aug 2026Slider (slider.dev) is an AI coding agent platform for enterprise user interface work. It ingests an organization's enterprise context — frontend stack, platform documentation, design tokens, schemas and rules — to construct a custom development environment and set of agent behaviors, so that generated code conforms to existing standards rather than starting from a blank canvas. The product positions itself around the gap between general-purpose AI coding agents, which perform well on greenfield work, and large-scale enterprise systems with big teams, complex codebases and established design standards.
Users can begin from a range of inputs — a prompt, a PRD, images, or a prototype from Figma or Lovable — and then build and iterate on frontend code in a multiplayer enterprise sandbox governed by a guardrail system. The company cites Workday-specific guardrail checks including Canvas Kit tokens, PMD schema validity, business process step coverage, i18n catalogs, Extend permission scopes and WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility. Outputs include technical specs for downstream AI coding assistants, user stories and presentation-ready screenshots, and PMD page models with bound data sources for Workday Extend. Slider describes custom compilers that generate optimized context and code packages targeted at a customer's specific production systems, intended to accelerate the final handoff to production.
Business model
Slider sells a software platform to enterprises, engaging prospects through a tailored demo request rather than public self-serve signup; pricing is not disclosed publicly.

Market position
Slider frames its differentiation as enforcing an enterprise's existing standards on AI-generated frontend code — platform schemas, design systems, business process rules, permissions, localization and accessibility — rather than producing unconstrained output from a blank canvas, and as compiling results into packages ready for specific production systems such as Workday Extend.
Technology
The platform combines AI coding agents with an enterprise "guardrail system." It ingests enterprise context — frontend stack, platform documentation, design tokens such as Canvas Kit, PMD schema, business process rules, Extend permissions and locale catalogs — to configure a custom frontend environment and agent behaviors. Work happens in a multiplayer enterprise sandbox, with automated guardrail checks covering design tokens, schema validity, business process step coverage, internationalization catalogs, permission scopes and WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility. Custom compilers convert the resulting work into context and code packages for the customer's target production systems, including PMD page models with bound data sources for Workday Extend.
Go-to-market
The company markets through its website with a demo request flow, offering to tailor demonstrations to a prospect's own stack, and segments messaging by consultants, product teams and pre-sales organizations. It highlights integration with widely used enterprise platforms including Workday, Microsoft Teams, Atlassian, Zendesk, Salesforce and ServiceNow.
Slider targets teams responsible for enterprise UI: consulting practices running design sessions and production builds, enterprise product and design teams needing rapid prototyping, design governance and engineering handoff, and pre-sales organizations building personalized interactive demos within real product constraints.
