It’s sad to see companies not spending a bit more on design. Sure, ai will help you get something decent out fast. But there’s a threshold where design becomes an indicator of trust. Especially for b2b software that tailor to large corps. Good design, character, adds directly to the bottom line.
I wonder if there’s a breakdown of their top performing or fastest growing services. It’s interesting how they dont seem to promote the services that much yet are seeing tremendous growth.
The most annoying thing about llm’s is that your answer heavily depends on your prompt, less about understanding the question. This makes us all spend a lotnof time adding things to the question ‘dont donthis, avoid saying this again, etc’ and thus moving away from it feeling natural.
Will this mean that when cost is more important than latency that replies will now take longer?
I’m not in favor of the ad model chatgpt proposes. But business models like these suffer from similar traps.
If it works for them, then the logical next step is to convert more to use fast mode. Which naturally means to slow things down for those that didn’t pick/pay for fast mode.
We’ve seen it with iPhones being slowed down to make the newer model seem faster.
Not saying it’ll happen. I love Claude. But these business models almost always invite dark patterns in order to move the bottom line.
It’s actually a pretty big deal. I always wondered why they didnt compete with Adobe. Even when Steve Jobs was still around. 90%+ of Adobe users are on Macs.
Why though isn’t such a significant announcement on the Apple.com homepage?
I’ve tried just about every system for keeping my desktop tidy: folders, naming schemes, “I’ll clean it on Fridays,” you name it. They all fail for the same reason: the desktop is where creative work wants to spill out. It’s fast, visual, and forgiving. Cleaning it is slow, boring, and feels like admin.
Claude Cleaner, I mean Cowork will be sweeping my desktop every Friday.
I think with some very basic UI/UX tweaks this can very quickly look, feel and perform 10X better. I applaud your efforts and if you need help. Just ask (details in bio). Happy to lend a helping hand or give you a few quick wins.
Yeah I know. The website hasn't been updated in a few years. We've been talking about a redesign for over a year (just didn't get to it because it was so busy) Finally added some extra hands to get it done. Should be live in 2 weeks or so. Despite the handful of technical issues we have today.. the conversion rate is still very healthy.
When I started http://fairpixels.pro (UX/UI Design for B2B Saas Companies) I grew it pretty quickly to a very profitable one-person business. (Not 1 person anymore)
The origin story is somewhat organic.
- Started as a logo design company
- then kept getting requests to help with UI/UX Design so I did
- then realised the most fun projects to work on were B2B SaaS companies
- today we're still growing and can happily count Fortune 500 companies, an Elon Musk company alongside awesome startups to our client list.
//Advice: Start with something small. Anything. Don't worry too much about how to grow. Then.. Just keep your eyes & ears open. Your customers will point you in the right direction towards bigger pinpoints & thus better growth opportunities. You don't always need a ton of traffic. Just start with something small and go from there.
