Ehsan's Recommendation
The 80/20 of this stack: 80% of the value comes from automated data flow between ai design and ai code tools. With Designs.ai feeding into Cursor, you remove the biggest friction point in most design workflow workflows. Track before-and-after metrics obsessively. That data becomes your case for expansion.
