Cursor Head of Design Ryo Lu (Ryo Lu) has spent his career at the intersection of design and engineering—from building fan sites as a kid to designing products at Stripe, Asana, and Notion. Now he's rethinking how software itself gets made. On this episode of Design Review, Ryo joins YC's Aaron Epstein to break down how great product websites communicate what a company does. They walk through sites from early-stage startups, calling out the small choices in structure, clarity, and brand that help users understand a product instantly— and the ones that get in the way. 00:00 - Intro 01:00 - Crunched 05:30 - Velvet 09:00 - Klavis AI 14:30 - Code Crafters 20:40 - Slashy 22:50 - Freya 26:00 - Finta 30:30 - Vibeflow

In this episode of Design Review, Stephen Haney, founder of AI-native design tool Paper, joins YC's Aaron Epstein to demo the agent-first workflow that's making Paper one of the fastest-growing design tools since Figma. Using live redesigns of user-submitted websites as examples, they break down the most common AI design tells, show how to fix them in seconds, and explain why the biggest risk for founders isn't moving too slow, it's shipping something that looks like everyone else. 01:04 - What is Paper and why build it? 03:17 - What makes Paper agent-native 05:11 - Demo: Shaders, image generation, and brand design 11:32 - Design-to-code and the new agent stack 16:48 - Design Review: Legion Health 24:11 - How to avoid AI design slop 28:26 - Design Review: Sytex 32:42 - The biggest tells of AI-generated design 37:39 - Design Review: Moreta 41:11 - Can AI learn taste? 43:56 - How Paper uses agents internally 46:52 - Building a community around Paper 49:15 - Lessons from Steven’s first startup 53:30 - What’s next for design and Paper

My conversation with Frank J. Guzzone, the Head of Design at Thrive Capital. Frank’s career journey is an unconventional one. He started as a medical scribe at a hospital center outside of DC before switching careers and moving to New York City to work with some of the largest global brands, and most recently building the design function at Thrive Capital from the ground up. His design philosophy blends scientific rigor with creative intuition. In his mind, the best design feels effortless, but you should sweat every detail to get there. Frank is an incredible designer and an even better person. We discuss his life story, the mechanics of great design, how to name a company, his work at Thrive and much more. Hope you enjoy!
