The enabler model is here, and we need to talk about what it means for us. We went from static screen assembly (and yes everything behind the scenes to get there) to building the system that lets teams ship the rest of the product. We're the reason there are no more bottlenecks. (If I hear one more person tell me they're blocked by design...omg)
This time is weird. This version of our role is the most impactful we’ve ever had. Designers making things for non designers to preserve the brand. We will be the ones building the tools, the rules.
This is a tiny snapshot of designers at @metalab building custom tools to extend their impact on projects. (H/t to @mlesplmer for looking under all the rocks.)
Are you still trying to own every pixel or are you building the brand and product system?
I threatened @ridd_design that I just might post here more often, so finding out if I might stick around.

Last week, we brought together our community of designers and product builders in SF to mark 20 years of Metalab.
Metalab has been shaped by incredible people with ambitious ideas, and many of them call San Francisco home. It was great to see so many in one room.
Thanks to everyone who joined us and made it a night to remember.

Every studio has a story. ✨
When we launched the Studio Spotlights series last September, the goal was simple: to create a space for studios to tell their own stories.
Since then, we've had the privilege of publishing stories from teams across the creative web, sharing their journeys, perspectives, challenges, and selected works in their own words.

Stronger together.
We teamed up with @sweatpals to create a brand that celebrates connection through movement. From visual identity and messaging to typography, color, and design systems, every element was crafted to transform everyday moments into meaningful, shared experiences.
Designing not just for workouts, but for community, growth, and joy.

Today, @MichaelElabd, @QuantumArjun, and I are excited to announce Trajectory.
We are a research lab and product company building the platform for Continual Learning.
Our platform unlocks the signal already sitting in product usage, so companies can continuously post-train large-scale agentic models that outperform the frontier. @trajectorylabs
We’ve raised $15M from @Conviction, @BessemerVP, @radicalvcfund, @jeffdean, @drfeifei and more.
We’re partnering with some of the best AI-native companies: @ClayRunHQ @Harvey, @DecagonAI, @mercor, @RogoAI to power their agentic systems, some of which we are already in production with.
We’ve brought together a world class research team from DeepMind, OpenAI, Apple, Meta Superintelligence, Amazon AGI, Scale AI, and an elite product team from Stripe and Figma.
AI will never again start on day one. Every correction, every retry, every edit will make products smarter. This is Continual Learning.

Measuring velocity of designers is absolute bullsh*" says @sravienna, CDO at @metalab
Speed isn't about cutting corners. It's about building trust.
The faster you demonstrate momentum, the more goodwill you earn. And that goodwill buys you the space for quality work.
Her team uses "Tarantinos":
Play out the end of the movie fast, throw everything at the wall, kill your darlings. 80% won't work. But you need space to find the 20% that becomes magic.
