<p>I run an agency and hire through upwork quite a bit, so I see the other side too. I think upwork already limits how many jobs people can apply to, but I still see tons of brand new accounts, so people clearly found ways around it.<p>One thing that really stood out to us during the hiring proccess on upwork is candidates who sent a short Loom with their face, walking through the challenge and how they'd solve it. Much easier to tell who actually understands the work. Might be worth trying from the freelancer side.</p>

<p>For my agency this won't replace Figma or designers. It's just a really useful tool to express yourself and communicate intent.<p>Before these tools, when a client wanted a specific section built, we'd spend hours hunting references across the web. The output always ended up feeling like a mesh of 2-3 sites, never fully unique. Then we'd burn more time explaining the intent to the client's designers and devs, usually with multiple rounds because words don't convey layout well.<p>Now we throw a quick mockup together in Claude or Lovable and send it. The designer gets the idea in 30 seconds instead of a 45-minute call, then pushes it further with their own taste and the client's branding.<p>It's not replacing designers. Most clients don't know what they want until they see it. These tools collapse that feedback loop from weeks to minutes, so the designer actually spends their time on the parts that need human taste, not on decoding a vague brief.</p>
