I got accepted into something rare 🫢
A network where human taste shapes AI, for real.
Most AI tools are built to be fast, but a few are built to be good.
That distinction matters more than we think.
I just joined @Contra Labs, the frontier human data and evaluation lab helping make AI better for creativity by centering the one thing algorithms can't fake:
(human judgment)
thanks @Contra HQ
Congrats
Congrats Ismel!

From speed, fuel, and GPS tracking to risk indicators and marine navigation — the goal is to create a clean, intuitive, and futuristic interface
Still refining the animations — will be submitting soon! 🔥

I just finished the Framer State of Sites 2026 report. Beyond the shiny UI trends, there are three massive shifts that actually impact your bottom line this year:
1. Speed is the only KPI that matters 🏎️
The "Design-to-Developer" handoff is officially a bottleneck.
The Shift: I’m moving clients from 3-month dev cycles to 1-week launch cycles. We spend less time "coding" and more time testing what actually converts your visitors.
2. The "Default AI" Trap ✍️
Every site is starting to look the same because of AI templates.
The Shift: To stand out in 2026, you need Human-Centric UI. I’m focusing on custom typography and "intentional" interactions that make your brand feel like a premium experience, not a generated one.
3. Total Ownership (No Maintenance Tax) 💰
The report highlights that "Site Rigidity" is the #1 killer of growth.
The Shift: I build "Living Sites." Once we launch, you (or your marketing lead) can swap text, images, or entire sections in seconds. No waiting for a developer. No "small change" invoices. You own your growth.
