You’ve learned the UX basics. Now it’s time to build something real.
Most designers get stuck in the same loop. You study. You watch tutorials. You take a course. You redesign a fake app.
But none of it feels real. And hiring managers can tell.

You design with guidance, not alone
We guide you through the full product process in clear modules.
You start with problem framing, then define metrics, explore solutions, prototype, and present your work.
You get async feedback, structured checkpoints, and direction from us throughout the sprint.
Leading startups and real product challenges
Every sprint pairs you with a different AI startup across different industries.
You solve an actual product challenge with real constraints, users, and stakes.
You build experience that looks and feels like real product design work.
A collaborative design environment
You move through the modules alongside other motivated designers.
You share progress, give feedback, and learn how different people approach the same problem.
It feels like working inside a real product team.
Tools and resources that speed you up
You get sprint-only templates, guides, and AI workflows for research, ideation, copy, and prototyping.
You also get free access to Figma Education, Subframe, and Builder for the full duration of the sprint.

"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!"

"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. ✨"

UX Designer (Madrid 🇪🇸)
Completed sprint
"It’s been such an incredible experience, moving from research and user journeys to a testable prototype, user testing, and final design delivery, all within a very short timeframe.
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!"

"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! 💜"

"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 levelled up."

"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.
