The 3-week project I finished in 5 days
Join my live class, and practice AI powered UX/UI design workflow together
Last month, I had a choice:
Spend 3+ weeks on a mobile app redesign using traditional methods.
Or test this AI-enhanced methodology I'd been developing.
I chose the experiment.
Day 1: AI-powered competitive analysis (usually takes a day)
Set up ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity Pro for UX work
Analyzed five competitor apps in minutes instead of 2 days
Generated insights that would've taken 6+ hours of manual work
Day 2: User research analysis (takes typically 5-7 days)
Processed 20+ pieces of user feedback using AI pattern recognition
Created data-driven personas in minutes instead of days
Extracted insights I would've missed in manual analysis
Day 3: Solution development (takes typically 1-2 weeks)
Generated 10+ design concepts in 10 minutes
Created optimized user flows addressing every research pain point
Developed comprehensive wireframes and content library
Day 4: Prototype and testing (typically takes weeks)
Built a working prototype with realistic content
Tested with three real users and got immediate feedback
Used AI to analyze behavioural patterns instantly
Day 5: Professional case study (takes typically days to document)
Created portfolio-ready presentation
Developed a professional positioning strategy
Built materials ready for job interviews
Total time: 5 days. Traditional timeline: 21+ days.
Here's what didn't change:
Quality of insights and solutions
User-centered design principles
Research rigour and validation
Here's what did change:
Speed of execution (10x faster)
Depth of analysis (AI caught patterns I missed)
The volume of ideas generated (20x more concepts)
Professional positioning (unique competitive advantage)
The most valuable part?
I wasn't just faster. I was better.
AI helped me identify user patterns that I would have otherwise missed and generated solution concepts that extended beyond my normal thinking.
Created content that resonated more effectively with users.
This isn't about replacing creativity with automation.
It's about amplifying your capabilities, allowing you to focus on strategy while AI handles repetitive tasks.
June 23-27: I'm hosting a 5-Day AI/UX Design Challenge Workshop

You'll experience this same transformation.
Complete the same type of project.
Build the same competitive advantage.
Join the first cohort at the lowest price now, available for $99 until June 30th.
Then, the price increases by $98, and it continues to rise in the next cohort.
The difference between traditional UX designers and AI-enhanced designers is widening every month.
Which side do you want to be on?
More tomorrow, John
