Onboarding AI to Your Product
Chiara Aliotta
Brand Designer & Strategic Storyteller
Eddie Machado
Design Systems & AI-Enablement
Craft an environment where AI delivers results aligned to your product.
Using AI can feel very reactive: prompting, tweaking, and re-prompting, nudging outputs that never quite feel consistent, and spending more time (and tokens) trying to align them with your product's vision.
Like any new team member, AI needs onboarding: understanding your product's context, purpose, and values before it can contribute meaningfully. Do that once, and when done right, it stops starting from zero every time and starts helping your product evolve.
This is a hands-on course, not theory.
Every session pairs a live build with an exercise you run on your own product, so you leave each week with something you can use immediately. It's taught by practitioners with 15+ years designing and building with startups and big-tech organisations, distilled into methods you can apply to your work right away.
Along with the weekly session, there will be a dedicated Q&A where you can dive deeper into that week’s topic.
What you’ll learn
You won't just know how to use AI: you'll have the methods, tools, and workflows to make it work with you, correcting less, evolving more.
Define what your product stands for, so AI has the context to know what you're actually building
See what a good design system and a strong Brand DNA contain, so you stop borrowing someone else's and start from your own
You leave with: a clear statement of your product's purpose, audience, and differentiation (your brand promise) and a skill for writing it
Turn your product's direction into living design guidelines, so AI has one source of truth to build from instead of guessing
Learn where a spec ends, and rules begin, so AI stops drifting and starts following your intent
You leave with: a structured design guideline and your first working rules
Understand when and where to provide AI with metadata for things like tokens, icons, and components.
Create skills for repeatable tasks so consistent output stops being a trial-and-error process.
You leave with: structured templates for structured context, AI-ready documentation, and your own personalized set of skills.
Build an agentic workflow that follows your design guidelines so you can scale without worrying about hallucinations
Understand how to preserve your knowledge graph as your product and team grow
You leave with: a personalized agentic workflow and a plan for keeping things aligned into the future
