Contra just told me I'm in the top 1% of creatives on the platform.
Cool badge. Doesn't build anything on its own.
What actually moved the needle wasn't chasing the score — it was going back through old proposals and noticing I was writing to sound impressive instead of answering the actual technical problem in the brief. Once I started solving the thing nobody explicitly asked but clearly needed, everything got sharper. The ranking followed, not the other way around.
Currently building in Framer — SaaS, real estate, and brand sites with real interaction design. If your brief has a hard technical problem buried in it, that's usually where I do my best work.
I love the approach and self honesty to improve. Congrats!
Thanks Abdullah, appreciate that.
the sounding-impressive trap is so real
Right? Took me way too long to actually notice I was doing it lol. Once you see it you can't unsee it in your own writing.
Congratulations, Ivan. Road to 200!
Appreciate it! Road to 200 😄
That line about writing to sound impressive instead of answering the actual problem hits close to home, easy trap under deadline pressure. How do you spot the hidden technical problem in a brief before you start proposing, is it a specific question you ask or more of a gut read by now?
Honestly started as gut read, but it's turned into more of a habit now. I look for whatever the client called out as a "hard requirement" or spent the most words warning me about — that's usually the actual risk, not decoration. Then I ask myself what breaks if that one thing...
Congratulations!
Thanks Prince!

Framer Website Redesign for a Digital Participation SaaS Platform 🚀
A complete redesign and Framer development project focused on turning a complex software offering into a clear, modern, and scalable digital experience.
We created a new visual direction aligned with the product UI, reusable components, responsive layouts, CMS-powered content, and a strong technical foundation for SEO, AEO, accessibility, and future growth.
The result is a website that not only looks like part of the product ecosystem, but is also much easier for the internal team to manage and scale.
Design → Framer Development → CMS → SEO/AEO → Performance

Wellix two homepage directions. Which one would you pick?
Wellix is an AI tool that reads health records and explains them in plain language lab results, scans, and charts turned into something a person can actually understand without a medical background.
Same brand, same palette, same illustration just two different ways of arranging the hero.
Which one would you go with, A or B? Drop a comment I'd like to hear which one lands better for you.
