Research · Bitcoin & Lightning builders

A Bitcoin Design Guide your AI can actually use

The way we build is changing fast, it’s part of most of our workflows. We want the guide to grow alongside your workflow. So we’d love to learn how you’re building.

Builders of 2026 are AI-native. And a lot of teams are shipping without a UX designer in the room at all.

We revise a resource written for humans into something that they or their agent can pull from in the middle of the building process and exactly when they need it.

We don’t want to assume what that looks like and so we want to hear it from you.

What we’re asking

There are three questions that are driving this.

01
Is the Bitcoin Design Guide built for an age where most builders are using AI?
02
Can builders and their agents find what they need quickly and easily?
03
Are there any areas in the Bitcoin Design Guide that, if covered, would support Bitcoin and Lightning builders?
Who we want to hear from

If you’re building on Bitcoin or Lightning and are using AI in your workflow we would love to speak with you.

We are specifically looking for builders of Bitcoin or Lightning wallets.

The process

How does it work?

We’ll reach out with an option to hop on a call.

We’ll meet online and chat for 30 mins to fit your schedule and timezone.

We’ll synthesize the interviews.

Then we will build a strategy on how the Bitcoin Design Guide is packaged so that AI powered builders can use it.

We’ll ping you once it ships!

Built in public
