KANZI User Interface Design Software

Kanzi enables the rapid design and development of user interfaces (UIs) for the automotive industry and other embedded applications. Kanzi UI design software provides designers with visual tools for creating high-fidelity branded UIs. With its agile workflow and modular architecture Kanzi accelerates UI design by allowing designers and engineers to work independently and in parallel without disruptions.

Experience UI design like never before

Kanzi is an efficient and agile one-stop solution for car manufacturers, Tier 1 companies and design studios that want to create UIs. We believe that designers and engineers deserve the easiest and best UI design software to be able to create functional and beautiful UIs. Learn more about how Kanzi makes the work of designers more creative while enabling engineers to easily integrate the UI with data and application logic.

Drive innovation with a faster time-to-market

• Comes out-of-the-box with everything you need for turning your design into a beautiful UI – focus on creativity instead of coding
• Gives designers full control of the end result with visual tools that enable rapid prototyping and a seamless transition to production
• Reduce development time through on-the-fly design revisions and deployment on target hardware in seconds

Reduce costs and increase productivity

• Eliminate up to 80% of UI code through built-in tool functionality
• Reuse all designs, assets, templates and code across projects
• Enable globally distributed teams of designers and engineers to efficiently work independently, together and in parallel

Scalable and easy to integrate

• Any screen, anywhere – develop any HMI from instrument clusters, infotainment systems and HUDs to mobile apps
• Hardware and operating system independent – runs on all leading automotive platforms and scales from affordable microcontrollers (MCUs) to high-end Systems-on-Chips (SoC)
• Integrates effortlessly into your existing tools and processes

Strengthening leading automotive brands

• Chosen by more than 15 leading automotive OEMs and over 10 Tier 1 companies, and on pace to power more than 25 million cars by 2022

For Designers

• Create fully functional user interfaces without coding by using Kanzi Studio – a real-time UI design editor
• Unleash your creativity through powerful built-in functionalities and features such as seamless 2D and 3D composition, customizable shaders, post processing and visual effects, state managers, layouts, animations, materials, etc.
• Easily import 2D and 3D assets from all leading design tools
• Constant iteration – make changes and see the effect in real-time without having to wait for engineering
• Realize your design vision by taking control of your design throughout the entire development process

For Engineers

• Model-View-Viewmodel (MVVM) architecture where the visualization is separated from data and logic
• Focus on application development instead of UI coding
• Easily connect the user interface with data and application logic using standard APIs and data source plug-ins
• Robust C++ API for UI application development
• Extendable through plug-ins
• Reuse application code and plug-ins across projects
