For the past few weeks, I have been improving Alokik. It's an AI app design tool that can create both mobile and web apps.
Last few updates:
1. Redesigned the designer page to remove the sidebar and reclaim screen real estate. Made it canvas first so you can focus more on the design.
2. Improve AI agents' performance by improving their knowledge about design.
Here is a quick demo that clones Duolingo using the cheapest model, Gemini 3 Flash.
amazing work well done

I just made a massive improvement to how AI agents design mobile/web apps in Alokik.
What did I do?
Rearranged how design knowledge is being shared with the agent and rewrote a lot of prompts.
Additionally, I increased the model's knowledge library to better understand design.
Result: You now get better designs even with the cheapest models.
This fitness app design was created using Gemini 3 Flash.
And it just costs $6 a month to design up to 45 screens. I think I made really good progress.
What do you think?
This is amazing 😍 😍 😍 😍 😍
What if your AI workflow is the reason your brand still looks generic?
Q2 forced me to reset how I build everything creatively and honestly… I simplified it way down.
Right now my process is just two tools, but waaay more intention behind them.
I’m using Claude to actually think with me. I feed it strategy, references, and the full brand world, and it translates that into really detailed prompts. When you pair that with Nano Banana 2, you finally start seeing visuals that actually feel like your brand.
I stopped expecting AI to figure it out and started directing it like a creative partner.
That’s also why I moved away from MidJourney. The second you need anything brand-specific like real text, packaging, or logos, it starts to fall apart. It’s great for vibes, not for building real brand systems.
This workflow forces more clarity upfront, and the output is 10x more intentional.
Curious how everyone else is using AI right now… are you directing it, or letting it lead?

good talk
Hey Contra 👋🏽
Many of the challenges I participated in here pushed me to start experimenting with building tools and platforms.
One of those experiments slowly turned into something bigger.
I’ve been building a social platform called Spaxis for creatives, and it’s now about 90% ready.
I realized something… as creators, our work often gets mixed in with everything else on traditional platforms,and as tools improve and creators level up, the quality of what we create is only getting better, but the platforms we use haven’t really evolved to support that. Everything still gets mixed, lost, or disconnected.
Spaxis is built for where creators are heading, a space where their work can live and connect, putting creators and their work at the center, so what we create can actually stay connected and grow.
Building it has been challenging, but now comes the interesting part, seeing how people interact with it.
The platform is currently optimized for web not mobile, and since Contra is full of curious creators who like trying new things, I figured this would be the best place to share it.
Huge thanks to Contra and YouWare for creating environments that push creators to explore, experiment, and build. This wouldn’t exist without that.
If you enjoy testing new things before they’re polished:
