In this episode of Technically Speaking: AI Builders, I sit down with Filip Skrzesinski, co-founder of Subframe, the UI design tool built for the AI era.Subframe isn't just another no-code platform or AI playground.

Filip calls it “design with code.”We unpack what it really means to bridge the gap between design and development, the philosophical shift away from static mockups, and how Subframe puts creative control back into the hands of full product teams. We also get into:* Why designers should think more like engineers (and vice versa)* How AI becomes a co-creator, not a replacement* What makes a good design system “trainable” for AI* Why stress-testing components in Subframe feels like building your own mini design tool* What it looks like when prototyping and production mergeIf you're a designer, builder, or curious product leader navigating the messy middle of AI and UI, this episode offers practical insights, creative inspiration, and a glimpse into the future of design tools.Learn more at subframe.comTimestamps00:00 Filip Skrzesinski x Harrison Wheeler: AI Product Builders Series00:25 Introduction02:56 Where Subframe sits in the product development process06:02 The origin story10:39 The ideal customer profile21:13 What makes Subframe stand out?27:11 Where a designers job starts30:15 Examples of how people are using the platform34:51 How to get started within minutes37:26 How organizations can embrace40:18 Closing and whats nextMentions* Subframe.com — Official website* Filip Skrzesinski on LinkedInFollow Harrison Wheeler and Technically Speaking* Newsletter* LinkedIn* YouTubeTechnically Speaking is where I share reflections, insights, and conversations to help you lead with confidence, clarity, and community.
