Spot Visuals Instantly with Pixel

Catch visual inconsistencies, layout issues, and accessibility violations automatically with Pixel.

No matter how skilled your design team is, minor visual inconsistencies often slip through late in the project cycle. These can range from subtle layout misalignments to non-compliant contrast ratios—small problems that leave a big impression on clients and end-users alike.

Pixel is an AI-powered visual QA agent inside Atarim. Her role is to audit your designs for precision, polish, and accessibility. She highlights issues in alignment, spacing, font and color usage, and responsive layout—all without manual inspection.

When you’re preparing for final delivery, accessibility compliance, or mobile optimization, Pixel ensures everything looks and behaves as it should.

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Preparing and Starting Pixel’s Review

Before Pixel can begin scanning, you’ll need to load the target page into Atarim’s Visual Collaboration (Canvas) View. This ensures Pixel can analyze the live interface — not just static screenshots — and catch real alignment, spacing, and consistency issues as they appear in the browser.

Tip: Use Pixel after layouts are finalized or updated to confirm that all design elements are properly aligned and accessible.

Step 2: Pixel Runs in the Background

Once triggered, Pixel performs an automated review in the background.

Warning: If your workspace is low on AI usage tokens, a modal will alert you before the scan starts.

What Pixel Checks

Layout & Structure

  • Misaligned elements (off by even 2–4px)
  • Inconsistent padding or margins between sections or cards
  • Elements breaking the grid (not aligned to an 8px/4px rhythm)
  • Off-center components (e.g., buttons inside modals)

Style & Design Consistency

  • Mixed or incorrect font families (e.g., Roboto instead of Inter)
  • Inconsistent font sizes or weights across similar components
  • Mismatched colors (e.g., off-brand blues)
  • Buttons that don’t match the design system
  • Uneven shadows, inconsistent border-radius, or rogue gradients

Visual Hierarchy

  • Headers appearing smaller than subheaders
  • CTA sections lacking prominence or visual weight
  • Overuse of bold or all-caps text
  • Imbalanced type scale or visual flow

Responsive Breakpoints

  • Layout overflow or wrapping issues on mobile/tablet
  • Elements that overlap or clip at smaller sizes
  • Padding disappearing at certain breakpoints
  • Button text wrapping unexpectedly on mobile

Accessibility Visuals

  • Text with low contrast ratios (WCAG 2.1 non-compliant)
  • Tap targets too small for mobile use
  • Hover/focus states with poor visibility

Image & Asset Quality

  • Blurry or low-res images/logos
  • Cropped or stretched visuals
  • Misaligned icons or icons not centered with text

Component-Level QA

  • Buttons not matching design tokens (spacing, color, hover state)
  • Card grids with inconsistent column spacing
  • Lists with unbalanced bullets or padding
  • Modals not visually centered or properly spaced

Step 3: Pixel Places Visual Feedback on the Canvas

When Pixel finishes scanning, he overlays visual stickers directly on the canvas, pinpointing the exact elements that need attention. This makes it easy to spot and resolve areas of concern.

Review actions:

  • Stickers appear directly over the element they relate to.
  • Hover or Click a sticker to view Pixel’s recommendation.
  • Choose to keep the finding or hide it to dismiss.

Each sticker includes:

  • A brief description of the issue
  • Precise location on the canvas (when tied to an element)
  • An Action option for task creation or dismissal

Tip: Pixel explains why something is off, not just what, helping you make confident design decisions

Step 4: Managing Pixel Findings

Once you’ve reviewed Pixel’s feedback, you can decide how to handle each sticker. Every finding is actionable — you can dismiss it if it doesn’t apply, or keep it to convert it into a task for your team to follow up on. This ensures that nothing flagged by Pixel is left unresolved, and every issue has a clear next step.

Actions you can take:

  • Keep (click or swipe right) → Accepts Lexi’s recommendation
  • Hide (click or swipe left) → Dismisses the suggestion if it doesn’t apply to your project.
  • Assign the task, update its status, or add a follow-up question → Converts the suggestion into a task you can manage in your workflow.

Key Capabilities

Pixel is designed to help teams catch visual and accessibility issues that are often missed during manual QA.

  • Automatically detects layout misalignment and spacing inconsistencies
  • Flags font and color mismatches based on workspace styles
  • Checks contrast ratios for WCAG compliance
  • Reviews desktop, tablet, and mobile layouts independently
  • Places feedback directly on the visual canvas

Tip: Add Pixel as a formal part of your QA checklist to ensure visual polish before client delivery.

Step 5: Collaboration With The InnerCircle

Pixel can be used alongside other Inner Circle AI agents for a multi-dimensional review. This means that while Pixel focuses on spacing, alignment, and visual consistency, other agents address complementary areas such as copy clarity, accessibility, SEO, and technical accuracy. When used together, they create a complete review workflow that ensures every part of the page — from text to layout to structure — is polished and ready to ship.

These agents enhance the review by covering visual, structural, content, and interactive dimensions of your project.
