What Fusion 1.0 Can Actually Do

"Most AI tools today make individual contributors faster but leave teams disconnected. Fusion 1.0 is different — it lets PMs, designers and engineers build together in one environment where code is the common language. It's how software teams finally move from handoffs to collaboration."

- Steve Sewell

CEO, Builder.io

According to Builder.io, the platform connects previously siloed workflows:

Feature	How It Works

Context Engine	System understands APIs and design systems
Enterprise Controls	Includes permissions and role-based access
Framework Support	Works with React and JS frameworks
AI Model Flexibility	Compatible with OpenAI, Anthropic and Google

The Bigger Picture: Why This Launch Hits Now

Fragmented product development workflows are costing companies time and competitive advantage in an increasingly complex software landscape.

Despite AI's potential to transform product development, only 10% of product managers actively use AI tools, according to industry research. This adoption gap persists even as studies show generative AI can save engineers 10%-15% of coding time, with potential savings up to 30%.

The challenge isn't just productivity — it's also about enabling collaboration across disciplines. Product managers struggle with time-consuming documentation and QA testing that compete with strategic priorities, while integration challenges between existing systems often create fragmented workflows.

AI Cuts Build Cycles to Minutes

"We've done this live in team meetings — people throw out an idea, and we just build it in front of them. What used to take months now happens instantly. Once leadership saw that, they said, 'We need this everywhere.'"

- UX Design Lead at a global enterprise services company

What's emerging as particularly disruptive are tools that give non-developers capabilities to participate in development processes, AKA vibe coding.

As one industry expert noted, these tools can "turn some of the software development process on its head" by producing software that's "much further along" before requiring developer intervention. Meanwhile, real-time feedback tools are becoming essential for capturing user insights at critical moments.

Builder.io has been developing solutions in this space, with their latest offering aiming to address the fragmentation problem by connecting product, design and code workflows.
