The Designer's AI Toolkit
Stop Wasting Time on AI Prompts That Don't Work
30 AI prompts a late-diagnosed ADHD designer uses daily at EA (because my brain won't brain the old way anymore)
Look.
I'm 25 years into this career. EA, Disney, Nintendo, Warner Brothers, the whole roster.
Got diagnosed with ADHD at 47.
And suddenly everything made sense. Why I could hyperfocus on a design system for 12 hours but couldn't write a fucking project brief to save my life.
The usual "productivity tips" don't work when your brain is wired differently.
But AI? That's different.
Not because it makes you faster (though it does).
Because it handles the cognitive load your brain doesn't want to carry.
Here's What Nobody Tells You About AI for Designers
The designers crushing it with AI aren't the most technical.
They're not prompt engineering wizards.
They just know which prompts actually work, and which ones waste your time generating garbage you have to fix anyway.
I spent 18 months figuring that shit out.
Testing. Refining. Using these daily at EA while managing a team and shipping actual products.
These aren't "here's a cool idea" prompts.
These are "I used this in a stakeholder presentation yesterday" prompts.
What's Inside
6 UX Research Prompts
Personas, journey maps, competitor analysis, interview questions, surveys, usability scenarios
9 UI Ideation Prompts
Landing pages, design systems, color palettes, mobile interfaces, accessibility. Plus 3 Midjourney prompts for mood boards, UI concepts, icon styles
6 Content Generation Prompts
Microcopy, emails, error messages, CTAs, feature descriptions, chatbot flows
5 Usability Feedback Prompts
Wireframe reviews, design critiques, heuristic evaluation, visual hierarchy, accessibility audits
4 Ethical AI Guidelines
Because we're not building Skynet here
Plus You Get
- Customization Guide: Make these work for your specific projects
- Best Practices Guide: My actual AI workflow from EA
- Getting Started Guide: First useful result in 15 minutes
Bonuses
Look, the 30 prompts are the main thing.
But I also included two resources I use constantly at EA that honestly could be separate products.
The AI Output Critic
A brutally honest evaluation system for catching AI bullshit before it embarrasses you in client meetings.
Includes:
- 30-second scan (catches fatal flaws immediately)
- 3-minute deep review (output-specific quality checks)
- "Ship it or fix it" decision tree
- One-page quick reference
Why this matters: The #1 mistake designers make with AI is treating outputs as finished work instead of raw material. This teaches you to spot the difference in 30 seconds.
I built this after watching too many designers present AI-generated personas that were obviously generic garbage. Don't be that designer.
7-Day AI Typography Challenge
A week-long crash course in using AI for typography decisions without looking like an amateur.
Each day focuses on one skill:
- Day 1: Semantic font search
- Day 2: Font pairing
- Day 3: Readability optimization
- Day 4: Accessibility
- Day 5: Responsive typography
- Day 6: Performance optimization
- Day 7: Complete typography system
20-40 minutes per day. By the end you'll understand how to leverage AI for typography work without just accepting whatever it spits out.
Both delivered as clean Notion pages you can duplicate to your workspace.
No PDF bullshit. No complicated setup. Just copy and use.
How This Actually Works
- Pick the prompt that matches what you're stuck on.
- Swap in your project details (takes 30 seconds).
- Paste into ChatGPT or Claude (free versions work fine).
- Get something usable.
Not perfect. Usable.
Then you make it yours.
Why This Isn't Just Another Prompt Collection
I have ADHD.
Which means I need tools that work with how my brain actually functions, not how it's "supposed" to work.
These prompts are built around executive function challenges:
- Starting is hard → Clear entry points
- Context-switching is murder → Self-contained prompts
- Remembering details is inconsistent → Everything documented
If you're neurotypical, great. These still work.
If you're not, these might be the first productivity tool that doesn't feel like fighting yourself.
What People Actually Said
"I stopped feeling like I was drowning in my own projects."
Designer who asked to stay anonymous because startup culture is weird about ADHD
"The Midjourney prompts alone are worth more than I paid."
David T., Visual Designer
"Finally, something that doesn't feel like I'm working against my brain."
Freelancer, neurodivergent, very fucking relieved
Real Talk: Time Savings
User research: 4 hours → 30 minutes
Color palette exploration: 2 hours → 10 minutes
UI microcopy: 3 hours → 15 minutes
That's roughly 10 hours back every week.
Use them however your brain needs to use them.

Diagnosed ADHD at 47, still figuring it out
P.S. I'm not going to lie to you about "$25,000 in time value." That's marketing bullshit. What I will tell you: Getting 10 hours back every week feels like breathing room. That's worth $14.
