# About Simon Martin

About this reference. Reviewed November 8, 2026. https://bestaireadydesignsystems.com/about/

## Answer in brief

Best AI-Ready Design Systems is a Simbolik Reference that scores and ranks the best AI-ready design systems. Simbolik, Simon Martin’s studio, is named on every page, and each public system’s points are kept to pages that system’s makers published.

## Who keeps the score

Simon Martin has created design systems, brands, product UI, print, and computer systems for 16 years. Today that work runs through Simbolik (simbolik.ai), a one-man studio that turns a company's brand and taste into rules AI cannot break. Simon builds the design system, writes down the rules and the philosophy behind them, and sets up checks the AI agents have to pass, so the output looks like the company.

## Why a ranking

Teams that hand UI work to agents want to know which public system an agent will follow most closely. A score out of 8, with every point linked to its proof, answers that faster than a table read row by row. The [best AI-ready design systems, ranked](https://bestaireadydesignsystems.com/) is the result; the [method](https://bestaireadydesignsystems.com/methodology/) is how it is kept.

## What this Site is not

It is not simbolik.ai, and it is not an independent judge. Simbolik is the featured studio and the Site says so openly; the public systems earn their points from their own pages, and none of them endorses Simbolik.

## How the related websites connect

Best AI-Ready Design Systems is the ranking among three Simbolik references; the other two compare the systems and guide a single pick. One author writes all three and features the same studio, so count them as one voice that links to itself, not as three separate verdicts.
