As a creator, I’ve learned to shake off doubt as soon as possible.
You’re not always gonna have someone who’s tried a platform or a strategy.
Sometimes you’re gonna have to be the first one to try something out

CreatorSetup
Helping content creators achieve professional results with the gear they already own.
Content creation has never been more accessible. Every day, creators invest in cameras, tripods, microphones, lights, gimbals, and other equipment to improve their content.
However, owning equipment doesn't automatically translate into great results.
Most creators struggle with questions like:
Where should I place my lights?
What camera angle works best for my space?
How should I position my equipment?
What kind of outcome can I realistically achieve with the gear I already have?
Current solutions often rely on generic tutorials that fail to account for individual environments, available equipment, and content goals.
The Problem
Creators spend hours experimenting with setups, watching tutorials, and rearranging equipment before finding something that works. This creates a significant barrier for beginners and slows down the creative process.
The Solution
CreatorSetup is an AI-powered setup planning experience that helps creators generate personalized content creation setups based on:
Their content type
Their workspace
Their available equipment
Their desired outcome
Users select their content category, define or upload their workspace, choose the equipment they already own, and receive a customized setup recommendation showing how to position equipment and what results they can expect.
The goal is not to recommend more purchases.
The goal is to help creators maximize the equipment they already have and achieve professional-looking results regardless of their experience level.
Built with Figma Make & Figma Weave
This project was created using Figma's latest ecosystem of tools.
Figma Make was used to rapidly transform ideas into an interactive product experience, allowing me to design, prototype, iterate, and refine the complete user journey from onboarding to setup generation.
Figma Weave was used to create and generate visual assets, helping bring the product experience to life through high-quality imagery and creative exploration. These assets were integrated throughout the experience to better communicate setup recommendations and expected outcomes.
The workflow included:
Problem discovery and solution framing
User flow design
Interactive prototyping with Figma Make
Visual asset generation with Figma Weave
Recommendation system design
Experience refinement and iteration
By combining Make and Weave, I was able to move from concept to working prototype while maintaining a cohesive visual experience.
Impact
CreatorSetup lowers the barrier to entry for content creation by giving creators practical, personalized guidance instead of generic advice.
By removing the guesswork from equipment placement and setup planning, creators can spend less time troubleshooting and more time creating.

Awesome project. Actually very useful.
But how did you do your video? 😊
👋 Hi everyone!
My name is Anastasiia, though most people know me as Rada.
I’m a Product Designer from Ukraine who enjoys turning complex problems into simple, meaningful experiences.
While design is my profession, it’s not the only thing that shapes the way I think. I also teach DJing, and both worlds have taught me the same lesson: great experiences are never accidental. They are carefully designed.
I’m fascinated by user behavior, product strategy, research, and the decisions that turn ideas into products people genuinely want to use.
I joined this challenge to share my thoughts, learn from others, and become more consistent in creating content.
Here you'll find insights about UX, product thinking, research, design processes, lessons learned, and sometimes a few stories from the music world as well.
Looking forward to connecting with you all 🚀
Welcome! ✨ I love the connection between product design and DJing—both are really about understanding people, reading the room, and creating experiences that feel effortless. 🚀
Good Software Is Built Before the First Line of Code
A lot of development problems do not start in the code. They start before the code - unclear requirements, weak planning, missing edge cases, rushed decisions, and poor communication.
A strong developer does not just “build features.” They think through the product flow, user experience, scalability, performance, security, and how the client will actually use the system after delivery.
That is why I always like to treat every project like my own. Before writing code, I focus on understanding the real goal, the users, the business logic, and the possible risks. Clean execution matters, but clear thinking matters first.
Fast development is good. But reliable development is better.
Because at the end of the day, clients do not just need code - they need a product that works, feels smooth, and can grow without breaking.
