How It Works

Three steps. Five minutes. Ready to code.

1

Describe in Architect

Fill out one form in Lattice Architect: what you're building, project type, key decisions (auth, database, UI style).

⏱ 2-3 minutes
2

AI Generates Everything

Lattice AI creates your PROJECT_GUIDE.md and Lattice Core setup: tech stack, AI rules, CI workflows, and guardrails.

⏱ 15-90 seconds
3

Run One Command

Copy your custom command, paste it in terminal. Everything sets up automatically. Start coding immediately.

The Real Time Savings

We calculated it. Setting up a project manually takes 4-6 hours. With Lattice, it's about 5 minutes.

Manual Setup

  • Research tech stack30-60 min
  • Configure package.json20-30 min
  • TypeScript, linting, testing30-45 min
  • Write AI rules15-30 min
  • Set up CI/CD30-60 min
  • Document architecture20-40 min
  • Debug version conflicts1-2 hours
Total4-6 hours

With Lattice

  • Fill out project form2-3 min
  • Wait for generation15-90 sec
  • Paste command and run30 sec
Total~5 minutes

And it's configured correctly the first time.

Without Lattice, you...

  • Guess at tech stack compatibility
  • Manually configure linting, TypeScript, CI
  • Write custom rules for your AI assistant
  • Hope you got the architecture right

With Lattice, you...

  • Fill out one form (what you're building)
  • Get your complete project plan
  • Paste one command
  • Start coding with AI that knows exactly what to build

What Builders Are Saying

"I used to spend my entire first day just setting up the project. Now I describe what I'm building in Architect, run a command, and I'm coding in under 10 minutes. The AI rules Lattice Core generates are exactly what I would have written myself — except I didn't have to."

"The Pro Planning mode is insane. I described a mobile app idea, and Architect came back with a full architecture, milestone breakdown, and even caught edge cases I hadn't thought of. Worth every penny for the time it saves."

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Lattice?

Lattice is an AI project scaffolding tool for developers. It has two products: Lattice Architect (paid), which generates a complete project plan, tech stack, and AI rules from a simple form; and Lattice Core (free), a CLI tool that adds AI guardrails to existing projects.

How long does Lattice take to scaffold a project?

Lattice takes about 5 minutes total: 2-3 minutes to fill out the project form, 15-90 seconds for AI generation, and 30 seconds to paste and run the setup command. Manual project setup typically takes 4-6 hours.

Is Lattice Core really free?

Yes. Lattice Core is free forever. It's a CLI tool you install via npx that adds version-aware AI rules, verify scripts, and guardrails to any existing project. Lattice Architect, which generates full project plans from scratch, requires a paid subscription.

What AI coding assistants does Lattice support?

Lattice generates custom rules and guardrails for Cursor and Claude Code. It can also scaffold projects for Next.js, Expo, and Node.js tech stacks.

What does Lattice Architect generate?

Lattice Architect generates a PROJECT_GUIDE.md with architecture decisions and milestones, a version-locked compatible tech stack, custom AI rules for Cursor and Claude Code, GitHub Actions CI/CD workflows, and a single npx command that configures everything automatically.

Who is Lattice built for?

Lattice is built for solo founders, indie developers, and CS students who use AI coding assistants like Cursor or Claude Code. It's especially useful for developers who spend too much time on project setup instead of building.
