  2. 2

    Compare design ideas and recommend one

    Use an agent to gather user needs, pull together moodboards, storyboards, and visual references, and compare a few design directions against the project brief and standards.

  3. 3

    Build prototype specs for development

    Use an agent to turn your sketches, notes, and project requirements into a prototype packet with site maps, page templates, and clear build notes.

Recommended agent uses

3 workflows you could delegate to AI

1

Update responsive pages and test browsers

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to update page templates or supporting code from your notes, then run the planned browser and device checks across the breakpoints your team uses. The agent can collect the test results, compare them with compatibility requirements, and package any failures for review so the release is ready for a final pass.

Where you stay involved

You decide whether the design and behavior are good enough to ship, handle any tough bugs or out-of-scope changes, and sign off on the release note.

Review level: High

2

Compare design ideas and recommend one

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to gather user needs, pull together moodboards, storyboards, and visual references, and compare a few design directions against the project brief and standards. The agent can assemble a short rationale for the strongest option so you can review it with the team before work begins.

Where you stay involved

You choose which concept best fits the project, weigh feedback, and decide what should move into production planning.

Review level: Medium

3

Build prototype specs for development

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to turn your sketches, notes, and project requirements into a prototype packet with site maps, page templates, and clear build notes. It can also list open questions about features, navigation, or platform assumptions so development has a clean handoff.

Where you stay involved

You review the prototype for fit with the project, confirm the assumptions, and decide which technical questions need a human answer.

Review level: High

O*NET 31.0 · methodology 3.3.0. Every workflow passes an action-level physical-execution and protected human-and-veterinary clinical-action gate. Documentation workflows must own a complete digital loop and use digital task evidence only; support-only workflows are disclosed separately and excluded from scoring. Artistic, editorial, normative, and policy-dependent work receives a transparent human-judgment constraint. National ranking within 923 scored O*NET occupations under methodology 3.3.0.
