Galileo AI - Enterprise Evaluation
Tool: Galileo AI (now Google Stitch) Category: Design (AI UI Generation) Evaluation Status: ✅ INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED (Claude Research - February 2026) Recommendation: 🚨 USE WITH EXTREME CAUTION - Free/Starter outputs are PUBLIC
Executive Summary
Galileo AI is an AI-powered UI design generation tool that was acquired by Google in 2025 and rebranded as Google Stitch. Independent verification confirms the critical privacy concern: Free and Starter tier designs are PUBLIC and visible to everyone.
Critical Privacy Issue
🚨 VERIFIED: FREE/STARTER DESIGNS ARE PUBLIC
Sources: Multiple independent reviews and official documentation
Key Findings:
-
Free tier - ALL outputs public:
"A notable limitation is that all designs can be seen by others even in the starter paid plan."
-
Starter tier ($19/month) - STILL public:
Designs viewable in public gallery
-
Pro tier ($39/month) - First private tier:
"Paid tiers add private mode so generations aren't public" "Pro Plan at $39 a month includes...private mode (so your designs stay just between you and Galileo)"
-
Enterprise - Full privacy:
"Top-tier privacy, priority support"
Pricing & Privacy Matrix
| Plan | Price | Generations | Privacy Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 10/month | 🚨 ALL PUBLIC |
| Starter | $19/month | 120/month (~12 designs) | 🚨 STILL PUBLIC |
| Pro | $39/month | 300/month (~30 designs) | ✅ Private mode |
| Enterprise | Custom | Unlimited | ✅ Advanced privacy |
Why This Matters
- IP Exposure: Any design created on Free/Starter is visible to competitors, public
- Most expensive for basic privacy: $39/month required just for private designs
- Hidden cost: Starter plan users may not realize outputs are public
Google Acquisition (2025)
Rebranding to Google Stitch
"Galileo AI was acquired by Google in 2025 and is now rebranded as Google Stitch."
Post-Acquisition Features:
- Integration with Gemini models
- Direct HTML/CSS code export
- Two distinct generation modes
- Enhanced AI capabilities
Privacy Implications:
- May now fall under Google's privacy policies
- Enterprise tier likely has stronger Google Cloud protections
- Free/Starter policy may have changed - verify current terms

Enterprise Recommendation
🚨 USE WITH EXTREME CAUTION
Critical Issues:
- Free tier = PUBLIC outputs - Anyone can see your designs
- Starter ($19) = STILL PUBLIC - Paying doesn't guarantee privacy
- Pro ($39) minimum - First tier with private mode
- Most expensive for privacy - $39/month vs UX Pilot's $19/month
Comparison to Alternatives
| Tool | Private at | Price for Privacy | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Galileo AI | Pro tier | $39/month | 🚨 Avoid Free/Starter |
| UX Pilot | All paid tiers | $19/month | ✅ Recommended |
| Uizard | Business tier | $39/month | ⚠️ Business+ only |
| Lovable | Any (with opt-out) | $0+ | ⚠️ Opt-out required |
Action Items for Enterprise Users
DO NOT USE Free/Starter for:
- Proprietary UI designs
- Client work
- Competitive product designs
- Any confidential concepts
If You Must Use Galileo AI:
- Minimum: Pro tier ($39/month)
- Recommended: Enterprise (for full privacy)
- Alternative: Use UX Pilot instead ($19/month with privacy)
Conclusion
Galileo AI's public output policy on Free/Starter tiers makes it unsuitable for enterprise use without the Pro tier ($39/month). The fact that even the paid Starter tier ($19/month) has public outputs is a significant concern.
For Hackathon:
- ❌ Enterprise code/designs: Do NOT use Free/Starter
- ⚠️ Pro tier ($39): Acceptable if privacy needed
- ✅ New non-sensitive projects: Any tier (if public outputs acceptable)
Strong Recommendation: Use UX Pilot instead - same price point, guaranteed privacy.
