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

    Owen Williams is a design manager at Stripe who built Protodash, an internal AI-powered prototyping platform that lets designers and PMs create high-quality Stripe dashboard prototypes without writing code. What started as a bundle of Cursor rules and React components evolved into a full web-based prototyping studio that runs in dev boxes, complete with design review modes, variant testing, and AI-powered iteration. Surprisingly, PMs now use Protodash just as much as designers, fundamentally changing how Stripe approaches prototyping, design reviews, and engineering handoffs.

  5. GPT 5.5 just did what no other model could

    23 AVR.

    GPT 5.5 just did what no other model could

    In this mini episode, I break down OpenAI’s new GPT 5.5 and GPT 5.5 Pro after weeks of early testing. I walk through three real jobs I threw at the model:  building an app for me to teach my second grader more advanced subtraction concepts, tackling a tech debt problem in the ChatPRD codebase, and hacking into a proprietary Bluetooth pixel display that every other model had failed me on. My verdict: higher intelligence, better efficiency, and genuinely autonomous long-running loops that change what I think is worth tackling. What you’ll learn: How I think about GPT 5.5 Pro’s pricing vs engineering time, and when I believe the “intelligence tax” is worth payingWhy I treat GPT 5.5 as a developer model first, and why I couldn’t find a consumer use case that justified its intelligenceThe exact prompt pattern I use to unlock a long-running autonomous subagent loopHow I got a near-six-hour autonomous run to one-shot 98% of edge cases in a migration over millions of chat threads and drop my Sentry error rate to the floorWhy I’m now throwing GPT 5.5 at tech debt, flaky tests, and security backlogs firstHow I combined a Bluetooth packet sniffer and GPT 5.5 to reverse-engineer a proprietary pixel speaker after Claude Code and GPT 5.4 both gave upHow I use the /personality command inside Codex to swap the default “baked potato” tone for something I actually enjoy working with— In this episode, I cover: (00:00) Introduction to GPT 5.5 testing (00:40) What is GPT 5.5 and how much does it cost? (03:23) Testing GPT 5.5 in ChatGPT: the intelligence overhang problem (07:12) Moving to Codex: where GPT 5.5 really shines (16:01) Hacking a Chinese Bluetooth speaker (21:47) Final thoughts on GPT 5.5’s intelligence and efficiency — Tools referenced: • GPT 5.5 and GPT 5.5 Pro: https://openai.com/index/introducing-gpt-5-5/ • Codex: https://openai.com/codex/ • ChatGPT: https://chat.openai.com/ • Claude Code: https://claude.ai/code • Sentry: https://sentry.io/ • Divoom MiniToo: https://divoom.com/products/minitoo — Other references: • OpenAI Codex Security: https://openai.com/index/codex-security-now-in-research-preview/ — Where to find Claire Vo: ChatPRD: https://www.chatprd.ai/ Website: https://clairevo.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/clairevo/ X: https://x.com/clairevo — Production and marketing by https://penname.co/.
