Design Mind
Rob Gourley's Weekly Newsletter on Product Design, AI, and Team Leadership
I've spent two decades designing products at Apple, running my own agency, and leading design at startups building AI and autonomous systems. The best insights come from people actually building, not just talking.
That's Design Mind. Every week I share what's working right now. AI tools I'm testing and which ones are worth your subscription. Tactics for building and scaling design teams. Design trends that matter versus what's just noise.
Join 2,000+ designers getting actionable insights. Read by designers at Google, Airbnb, and startups worldwide.
