The internal AI tool that’s transforming how Stripe designs products | Owen Williams

My dream was, I want something that's like v zero but for us. We have all of these tools internally that are really cool. We can connect different data sources together. Why can I not just do this in my browser? Like, why do I need Cursor? You're seeing a lot of designers use it, but maybe even more PMs. I started seeing PMs use it and got a little nervous. Oh my goodness. PMs designing. It's like, what's gonna happen? Is it how painful is it to prototype a data dashboard with all its interactions, all its filters, all its states, different states, zero data, a bunch of data. It is nearly impossible to do that in Figma. It's sort of been this very transformative thing because all of a sudden, I'm sitting in these design reviews, and it's so convincing that I'm like, is this the real product, or am I looking at something fake? Welcome back to How I AI. I'm Claire Vow, product leader and AI obsessive, here on a mission to help you build better with these new tools. Today, I have Owen Williams, design manager at Stripe, and he's gonna show us how he vibe coded his own vibe coding platform for their internal design prototypes. It is one of the most impressive internal tools I have seen and such an awesome way to rethink how your product builds products with tools. Let's get to it. This episode is brought to you by Siligo. Every company today wants AI to improve how work gets done. The fastest way is building it directly into everyday business processes, automating employee onboarding, keeping customer data accurate, managing orders and inventory, or resolving finance and operations issues. When AI lives inside the flow of work, it can update records, trigger approvals, route work, and kick off the next step across systems. That's how teams operationalize AI and deliver measurable results. Soligo makes this possible. And now, with Soligo Aura, it's never been easier. Soligo Aura gives you access to the entire platform through natural language, connecting your systems and turning intent into action. All of it under your control. Companies like Databricks, PayPal, and Olipop rely on Soligo to run critical business operations at scale. Ready to operationalize AI? Visit celigo.com/howiai. That's celigo.com/howiai. Owen, thanks for joining How I ai. Hey. I'm happy to be here. I know that you're stepping away for a few minutes from parental leave with your second. So I appreciate you giving us the time. And what I love about what you're gonna show us is how to we were joking before we started recording. How to get prototypes that don't look like generic tailwind indigo slop. So tell me about tell me what the problem you're facing and kind of how you came to the solution that you came to. You know, I'm a design manager, so I'm I'm sitting in a lot of design reviews. And all of the designers at …
