Episode 61: Subscription Overload- How New AI Lets Designers Consolidate

Feeling buried under a mountain of apps? You’re not alone. In this episode, Jenna pulls back the curtain on the flood of “AI for design” apps that popped up during the gold rush… and why so many of them are now vanishing. Spoiler: most were built by developers chasing profit, not by people who actually understand design.

Jenna shares her own journey (yep, hundreds of thousands invested in app development!) and explains why the future looks different now: designers themselves can start creating custom tools-  without needing a full dev team or a giant budget. Think: one streamlined app that matches your workflow instead of 10 overpriced subscriptions.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

Why cookie-cutter design apps are fading fast

How today’s AI makes it possible for designers to build their own tools

The dangers of locking into annual subscriptions too soon

Why consolidation is the next big shift for creative businesses
