Supernova, a platform uniting design, code and product, debuts Supernova Portal, an enterprise-grade vibe-coding tool for use by teams across all phases of product development. Additionally, the company closed a $9.2 million Series A funding round to expand market efforts in the United States and worldwide. Portal is built on Supernova's design system platform.

"Product development is too slow and too complex, and it's holding back innovation," says Supernova CEO Jiri Trecak. "As an engineer and product leader, I've seen firsthand how silos and bottlenecks grind teams to a halt. We've spent nearly a decade building an enterprise-grade platform with some of the world's most trusted companies—unifying design with code and supercharging it with AI—so teams can move from idea to production faster than ever, without abandoning the tools and processes they already rely on."

AI-Powered Product Development

Supernova Portal brings the product lifecycle onto one platform and infuses it with AI. Portal integrates with enterprise processes and maintains design system consistency from idea to code. With Portal, teams can:

  • Transform ideas into product packages: Automatically generate prototypes and business cases, all synced to the codebase.
  • Keep docs in sync: Update one document and Portal automatically reflects changes everywhere.
  • Eliminate busywork with AI agents: Chat with AI agents that can handle manual tasks like updating requirements and syncing documentation.
  • Maintain standards automatically: Every output aligns with design systems, requirements, and brand guidelines.
  • Plug into existing workflows: Portal connects with Figma, GitHub, VSCode to integrate with the tools teams already use.

Supernova was founded in 2018 by CEO Jiri Trecak and COO Oskar Koristka, who previously built platforms and apps for the U.S. and Australian governments and other global enterprises. They created Supernova reportedly to simplify design-to-code handoffs. The company has grown into a platform that unites the product development process.

Supernova's Series A is led by Taiwania Capital, with participation from J&T Ventures, Reflex Capital, and existing backers Credo Ventures, EQT Ventures, Kaya, Wing VC, and Y Combinator.
