AI + UX studio
Most teams design it or build it. We do both by Friday.
We are three people: two UX directors and an AI engineer. In five days we turn one product idea into a working prototype your team and your users can actually tap through.

What we do
Four ways we help
Pick the one that fits. Most clients start with a single week.
Working prototypes in a week
One product idea becomes a coded prototype your team and users can tap through, by Friday.
How the week runs →AI features people trust
Assistants, smart suggestions and automation designed around real users, with the reasons shown and people in charge.
See the work →UX research and strategy
Find the right problem first. Interviews, journeys and research simulators that show where people get stuck.
See the work →AI training for design teams
Hands-on workshops that get your designers prototyping with AI the same week.

Live by Friday
Most design sprints end with a slideshow of mockups. Ours ends with a working, coded prototype that runs on phone and desktop. Same week, a much better Friday.
- 1
A real build, not a picture
AI-assisted engineering turns the design into a prototype people can click, tap and test.
- 2
Decisions you can act on
What to build, what to drop, and why. Written down, agreed by Friday.
- 3
A plan engineering can pick up
Flows, components and open questions handed over in a form your team already uses.
- 4
Senior people the whole week
The three of us do the work. No junior hand-off after the sales call.
Why this is rare
Most teams can't do this in a week
Getting from idea to something real people can use takes design and engineering working together. Most setups split them apart.
Typical agency
- Time to something working
- Several weeks or more
- Who does the work
- Designers first, then a separate build team
- What you have on Friday
- Mockups and a handoff deck
Freelancer
- Time to something working
- Depends on one person's calendar
- Who does the work
- A designer or a developer, rarely both
- What you have on Friday
- Half the job
Your own team
- Time to something working
- Whenever it clears the backlog
- Who does the work
- People already at capacity
- What you have on Friday
- A ticket in the queue
Triggered Goat
- Time to something working
- Five days
- Who does the work
- Senior UX and AI engineering, together all week
- What you have on Friday
- A working prototype you can click
AI makes the build fast. Senior UX makes sure it is the right thing to build. You need both in the same room, every day of the week.
How the week runs
Monday to Friday
You give us about two hours a day and a decision maker on Monday and Friday. We do the rest.
Monday
Frame
Kickoff with your team. Pick the one problem worth solving and who it is for.
Tuesday
Shape
Map the flow, sketch options, agree on one direction together.
Wednesday
Build
The core flow comes to life on real screens, built with AI alongside us.
Thursday
Refine
Your team pokes at the working build. We fix, polish and prep for review.
Friday
Live
Readout: the prototype, the decisions and the next step.
Want real users on it? Add five user sessions the following week. Recruiting takes one to two weeks of lead time, so we start it on Monday.

Built for teams who are stuck
Agencies
Your clients want AI. We become your prototyping team, under your name.

Product teams
The idea leadership keeps debating. We end the debate in a week.
Portfolio companies
Quick, visible wins across several companies at once.
The team
Three legs, one goat
Dan
UX director
Has led UX departments and built two enterprise design systems from scratch.
Kim
UX director

James
AI engineer
Turns designs into working software with real AI under the hood.
Product, engineering and design in one room all week. That is why the Friday build works.

Signing up takes one tap. Leaving takes a maze and a phone call.

Cookie banners
"Accept all" is huge. "Reject" is hidden. That is on purpose.

Questions
Before you ask
Is the prototype real code?
Yes. It is a working front end you can open on a phone or laptop. It is built to prove the idea and test it with people, not to ship to every customer on Monday.
What do you need from us?
One problem, about two hours a day from your team, and a decision maker at the Monday kickoff and the Friday readout.
Can we use our own design system?
Yes. Send it over before Monday and we build with it.
Can you work remotely?
Yes. Most weeks run on video calls. We are in the Dallas-Fort Worth area if you want us in the room.
Got an idea that won't stop nagging?
Tell us the idea in a few sentences, or ask to see client work. We will reply with whether it fits a week and when we can start.
