#173 Quarterly: Claude Motion, Figma Agents, and Why I Moved My Business Into Claude Code

👉 Join the Case Study Engine waitlist: ai-for-designers.com/claudecodeportfolio-waitl…
The waitlist opens first on 9 November, gets the lowest price and an exclusive live Q&A call with me.
A client asked me for my projects, and I had nothing written up. This quarterly starts right there.
In this episode:
• Claude Motion, and why it isn’t really a video tool
• Agents and skills inside Figma, and why the most powerful part is a text file
• Cheaper Claude models (Opus 5.5, Sonnet 5.5, Haiku 5.5) and what that means for building your own tools
• Automation that keeps running in the background
• Design moving into Claude Code
Then what I built from that client moment, the Case Study Engine. You put everything about a project in once, and it builds an honest, visual case study for recruiters and clients. Plus what I learned in week three of the AI for Designers bootcamp, what didn’t go to plan, and where I think our job is heading.
