Detailed instructions

1. Set the Number of Labels to match how many UI elements your current screen or component needs.
2. Choose a Label Type from the dropdown — select buttons, nav items, form fields, or tooltips based on what you're designing.
3. Click Generate to produce a list of realistic placeholder labels suited to your chosen type.
4. Copy the output and paste it directly into your Figma, Sketch, or XD project, or into a component library for reuse.
5. Repeat with a different Label Type to cover additional UI elements on the same screen without leaving the tool.

Use Cases

• •Populating a Figma component library with realistic button labels before copywriting begins
• •Filling a five-item navigation bar in a client-facing Sketch wireframe presentation
• •Generating 10–12 form field names for a multi-step checkout flow prototype in Axure
• •Creating tooltip copy for annotated UX documentation screenshots in Notion or Confluence
• •Seeding a demo environment with menu items so stakeholders can review interaction patterns

Tips

• →Generate nav items and buttons separately — the phrasing conventions differ and mixing types makes mockups look inconsistent.
• →Ask for slightly more labels than you need (e.g. 12 for a 9-item menu) so you can hand-pick the best fits.
• →Form field labels work well as column headers in table or data grid mockups, not just in traditional forms.
• →When presenting to non-technical stakeholders, realistic labels prevent scope-creep conversations triggered by obviously fake copy.
• →Save a few generated sets in a text file as a reusable library — many labels like 'Settings', 'Help', and 'Log Out' recur across projects.
• →Combine button labels with a color palette generator to build a full interactive prototype component set in one session.
