Desgining for Agents: The Rise of Agentic UI

# ALL UI is becoming Chat? Not exactly.

While chat is popular, Agentic UI is broader. It’s about interfaces that anticipate needs.

# 1. Intent over Navigation

Instead of a menu with 50 items, an Agentic UI offers a prompt: 'What do you want to achieve today?' and constructs the necessary dashboard dynamically.

# 2. Confirmation Loops

Agents act autonomously, but humans need control. Good Agentic UI provides clear 'checkpoints' where the user reviews and approves critical actions.

# 3. Transparency and Trust

The UI must show *why* an agent made a decision. 'I recommended this stock because...' builds trust better than a black-box suggestion.

# Conclusion

Designers must stop designing screens and start designing flows and relationships between human intent and machine execution.
