CtrlAltGo·St. Petersburg, FL·AI design sprint studio

A design partner that ships.

An AI design sprint studio. We run the sprint for you — new products and existing ones, live in two weeks — and teach your team to run the method themselves.

How I work·Design → Build → Live

From the right idea to a working product. In days.

We help you figure out what to build and why — the part that actually matters — then ship it fast. Real product, real users, not a prototype in a stakeholder review.

From design strategy to live product·In days, not weeks

  1. 01

    Days 1–5

    Design

    User-centered research and decisions. Real components, real copy, locked scope, success criteria written. The design file is the source of truth.

  2. 02

    Days 6–12

    Build

    AI-augmented build. Designs become production code — Tailwind, Next.js, Swift — same day, same person. Real systems, not prototypes.

  3. 03

    Days 13–14

    Live

    Deployed to a real domain or shipped to TestFlight. Tested with real users in the actual market — not in a stakeholder review.

The method·Five moves

Every sprint runs the same five moves — the method the whole studio is built on. We run it for you, or we teach your team to run it.

  1. 01

    Frame the bet

    Who's the user, what's the problem, what's the single riskiest assumption. The AI tools stay closed — the restraint is the lesson, and it's the part most teams skip.

  2. 02

    Diverge with AI

    Competitive scans, solution directions, and user-need hypotheses in minutes. AI as a divergence multiplier, still human-steered.

  3. 03

    Decide

    Pick the one bet against the user need — not against what's coolest to build. The human call.

  4. 04

    Prototype for real

    The Figma-to-Claude workflow: a real, interactive prototype — even native — in hours, not a faked click-through.

  5. 05

    Test with real users

    The whole point. The difference between “we built it” and “it works.”

  • Cameron was the lead designer on a digital health product that I lead. He was instrumental in getting us through needs finding, early prototyping and putting an MVP into the customers hands. He is one of the most creative designers I've worked with over my career, a great team player and fun to work with.

Now·Currently building

Between sprints I’m prototyping new products of my own — small tools at the intersection of design and AI. More soon.

About

CtrlAltGo is a small studio led by Cam Cress — a decade in-house at PrizePicks (10× user growth), Hillrom (0→1 telehealth), and Paramount sports apps. We bring that experience into two-week sprints that ship.
