Good design needs time to explore, experiment and test. But too often, designers spend their days buried in operational tasks: writing briefs, recruiting users, navigating legal questions, preparing slide decks or rebuilding existing interfaces in Figma.What if AI agents could take care of much of that work?
In this deep dive, Daniel Diener and Marcel Bertram take you through a real design case from start to finish. You’ll see how AI agents can streamline Design Ops, from research preparation to prototyping, while keeping designers focused on what matters most: understanding users, making better design decisions and iterating faster.
Instead of generating generic AI designs, you’ll learn how to create new UI variants based on your actual website and existing design system. Walk away with practical ideas for reducing operational overhead and spending more time on what you do best: designing.
Design Ops Expert & Co-founder of MUDX.design.
Daniel Diener is co-founder of MUDX.design. He built a Design Operations function at a major automotive company and went on to pilot it at other large enterprises. Today, he and Marcel use their Design Ops approach to help companies of every size, from global corporations to small teams, make design work simpler and more efficient. The goal: less time on operations, more time for designing, talking to customers and testing with real users.
Design Ops Expert & Co-founder of MUDX.design.
Marcel Bertram is co-founder of MUDX.design. Together with Daniel, he brought Design Ops into a major automotive company and other large enterprises. Marcel brings the technical side to the approach. He works where design meets code and sets up design systems that designers and developers share. With AI agents, he automates the ops of research and prototyping, so teams keep their time for the decisions only people can make.
