Great digital products aren’t built in one attempt.
They evolve through iteration, testing, and refinement.
At Codative Labs, we believe in progress over perfection — building, improving, and evolving until the experience feels right.
It's a browser-based tool with animated templates I'm building for designers and creatives who want to present their work online with motion, without having to do it from scratch.
Pick a template -> add your visuals -> play with the settings -> export
Here's what's happened in the first month:
• People are using the thing I made. Aaaa 🥹
Seeing aftrglo in other creatives' posts and projects has been such a joy.
• The feedback is coming in.
People are sharing their impressions, ideas, and wishes. I'm learning how aftrglo fits into their creative process.
• That feedback is helping it grow.
We've spotted a few bugs together, and I've been making fixes and updates along the way.
• The editor is getting a new look.
I've redesigned the controls to make the interface feel calmer and easier to navigate.
• Of course I made more templates 👀
Four new templates and updates to existing ones. More possibilities, while keeping the process simple.
Something that once felt like a distant little dream is now helping creatives with their work. They've told me, and I'm still taking that in.
I’m making it myself, while balancing a full-time job and a life I want to be present for. Progress happens in the time I have, and I’m proud of how it’s growing
Still very much in love with building this ✨

With Claude 5.5, An initial brief and just a few prompts later on a logo animation and I can visualise what I want for my animators and not just have to talk them through a few slides.
Most will say do we even need to improve what claude spits out, but I notice the little things and the little things are why we are always busy.
But this unlock has huge potential for us and our clients.
