​Every startup's product looks like it was designed by the same depressed robot 🙄

​Minimalist. Purple gradient buttons. A hero section that says "The future of [blank] is here." You know what I'm talking about. 

​In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn from an ex-Dropbox, award-winning product designer (Kathy Wang) how to prompt like a designer. 

​You’ll walk away with: 

​👉 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁 (neo-brutalism, vaporwave, glassmorphism...heard of them?) 

​👉 𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗮𝗰𝗸𝘀 (design psychology, Nikita-Bier-style) 

​👉 𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗼𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀 (the playbook Kathy used to win 2nd place at a Manus hackathon with 5 minutes of work)

​After all, your product should look like a human made it...not a depressed robot.
