Why Yummy Labs

You need work that shows real UX thinking, and AI workflows to match.

Bootcamps teach you to decorate.
You spend months on fake projects. Hypothetical users. Invented constraints. Then you graduate and realize you've never shipped anything that touched a real business. Employers can tell.
AI illiteracy is the other cliff.
AI is everywhere. The noise is deafening. But the right workflows? They're genuine superpowers, if you know which ones actually matter.

THE SKILLSET · 1
Take a real product problem and turn it into a clear design direction. Fast.

You get a real AI startup product brief with constraints. We walk you through how to break it apart, reframe what matters, and land on a direction you can defend in 2.5 weeks.

THE SKILLSET · 2
Use AI to do the work of a full design team, on your own.

We show you exactly how to use Claude to pressure-test concepts, synthesize research, and build working prototypes in hours.

THE SKILLSET · 3
Make design decisions that hold up under pressure.

We teach you how to back your decisions with evidence, work within real business constraints, and defend your choices to people who will push back.

THE SKILLSET · 4
Ship a live, working solution from zero with Claude, Github & Vercel. (No coding experience needed)

We guide you from raw brief to final solution — research, flows, hi-fi screens, AI code prototype, all built inside a real product's design system.

THE SKILLSET · 5
Present your work like someone who can own the problem.

You'll learn to structure your presentation, anticipate pushback, and walk a room through your thinking — with confidence, not apology.

AI tool stack

Designed for

Our sprints run on the Claude ecosystem.

Our sprints run on the Claude ecosystem.

Claude is the backbone of every sprint.

Learn AI-native design workflows. By the end of the sprint, you'll know how to go from messy research to a live prototype in a single day. You'll use AI to handle the repetitive work so you can focus on the decisions that actually matter. And you'll walk out with a workflow that makes you genuinely faster.

Set up Claude with MCP correctly

Move design systems from Figma to code

Prototype interactive UIs

From Figma to production-ready code

Build real product features

Write design documentation

AI powered UX research

AI powered UX audits

Is this for me?

Designed for

This sprint is for you if

You're done learning in theory, you want a real brief, real constraints, and work you can actually show.

You want to design like a builder. Own the outcome end-to-end, not just hand off a mockup and hope.

You know AI is reshaping design, and you'd rather be ahead of it than spend next year catching up.

Your portfolio is lying. It doesn't show what you're actually capable of, and you know it

You want the feeling of real product work, and upskill fast in a realistic product environment.

"My process is sharper and my design thinking’s leveled up."

And more great things our Labs designers are saying.
Stephanie LiuUX Designer (Seattle 🇪🇸)
It definitely wasn't an easy process, but I left this sprint knowing how it truly feels to think like a designer.
Within the span of two weeks we went from building user flows and personas to transforming our ideas into functional prototypes. Huge shout out and thank you to Carmen Rincon and Alexandre L'Herbette for putting this program together, this sprint is such a great chance to branch out and work with people who come from such a wide variety of backgrounds. I'm excited to see what comes next!"

Eszter RakitaUX Designer (London 🇬🇧)
"This sprint taught me how to design with empathy while leveraging AI to accelerate clarity, decision-making, and innovation, without losing the human touch.
During the sprint, I designed and tested AI-powered interaction patterns for an end-to-end home discovery experience. I also used AI-driven prototyping to build and iterate in real-time with actual users, and worked across research, UX strategy, and product design to shape solutions with measurable business impact. Looking forward to the next collaboration. ✨"

Sofía GarayUX Designer (Madrid 🇪🇸)
"It’s been such an incredible experience.
Over two intense weeks, we worked on a fascinating project: a stealth startup founded by Mark van Ryswyk (ex-CPO Tinder, ex-EVP Glu Mobile) and Shawn Elson (ex-Meta Design Lead), focused on creating a Neighborhood Discovery Experience for homebuyers. Huge thanks to Carmen Rincon and Alexandre L'Herbette for building such inspiring programs (as always!) and to my teammates for letting me learn so much from them along the way 💙 Can’t wait to show you this project in my portfolio soon!"

Jacob: "Yes YES YES! The structure really helped me, especially in shaping clearer storytelling around my work."

Bobby ShawSenior Product Designer (USA 🇺🇸)
Yummy Labs: "Anything else you’d like to share: feedback, love, or ideas for Yummy Labs?"
Bobby: "You all on to something here. Coming from a bootcamp veteran (meaning I've done a good chunk of them) and having worked with Memorisely previously, what you all are shaping is so much more realistic, intentional, and better than a cookie cutter learning opportunity. Keep it going, friends, and know I'll be back for another round someday!"

Yummy Labs: "What made the biggest positive impact on your learning experience?"
Maria: "I loved the most that everything is up-to-date. Most courses are still not udapted to the new era with new technologies, but companies already looking out for the designers who know how to integrate AI into design process. This sprint was an ideal place to learn about new workflow."

Manushri DaveUX Designer (Savannah 🇺🇸)
"This sprint reminded me why I love what I do — blending design, business, code and empathy to create experiences that actually make life better.
In just 14 days, I collaborated with founders and designers, explored human–AI interaction patterns, and used AI tools to prototype real user flows — fast, strategic, and always human-centered. And I’m incredibly honored (and humbled!) to have been recognized as one of the Top Sprinters, with my work featured and presented to the founders! 💜"

Next-Gen Housing App
Harry Dodd-IrwinDesigner & Developer (London 🇬🇧)
"I’m not usually a “course” person. I prefer to dive in and learn by doing. But this was different.
Yummy Labs didn’t tell us what to design; they taught us how to think like product designers and get something into users’ hands quickly for feedback. Over two weeks we defined user pain points, built lightweight personas, mapped messy journeys, and turned ideas into a working MVP for a stealth AI startup founded by Mark V. (former CPO at Tinder). My sleep schedule’s wrecked, but my process is sharper and my design thinking’s leveled up."

Next-Gen Housing App
Britney WhitenUX Designer (Maryland 🇺🇸)
"I left this sprint sharper, more curious, and with a deeper appreciation for how AI can accelerate contributions to design without losing the human touch.
It was fast, challenging, and full of “aha” moments, building, testing, and iterating in real time with real users! Huge shout out to Carmen Rincon and Alexandre L'Herbette for the amazing program they’ve put together through the Accelerator. It’s a unique opportunity to work with real start-ups alongside a peer group of other super talented designers from all sorts of backgrounds. Can’t wait to see what other opportunities pop-up next! This definitely won’t be my last sprint with the team.
