Tasks

Create a mockup design for the Glam AI app. Pick a track, get to know the product, and turn a strong idea into a thoughtful mockup. Here's the flow:

  1. 1

    Choose your track

    Pick one or several of the three tracks below — tap a track to see what it is and what users do there.

    Track 1AI Feed

    The Feed works like a social network. The user's main goal is to see what others create and post, and what's currently trending.

    What users do: like, comment, follow creators, post their own work, and get inspired by others.
    Track 2Daily Shots
    Daily Shots: user photos to personal AI model to daily content

    Glam AI Daily Shots lets users create a personal AI profile by uploading up to 10 photos of themselves.

    Once trained, the profile remembers the user's identity, facial features, and body features. Users can then try different photo templates by simply tapping the “Try” button, with generations created almost instantly.

    What users do: create a personal AI profile from their own photos, then quickly generate content from ready-made templates with one tap — no prompt-writing from scratch.
    Track 3AI Chat

    A chat where users generate photos from their own prompt. They can send references, upload their own photos and ask to edit specific details, and create or edit videos.

    What users do: turn an idea into a finished image through conversation, refine results step by step, make targeted edits, create and edit videos — and open any creation from across the app right in the chat to keep working on it.
  2. 2

    Explore the app

    Download Glam AI and dig into how it really works — your idea should fit the product. Open the app →

  3. 3

    Propose a strong use case

    Come up with a new, meaningful idea for your track — a feature, a functionality extension, or a user flow.

  4. 4

    Build the mockup

    Design your solution as a mockup — Figma, images, prototype, or presentation. We're not looking for UI redesigns or small visual tweaks; the focus is on product thinking and original concepts.

    🎨
    You'll work with our Figma UI kit. We'll provide a Figma file with ready-made components, and your mockups must be built with it. The kit link will be shared with participants separately.
  5. 5

    Describe your idea

    Walk us through the concept so it's easy to grasp:

    • Concept name
    • Track — AI Feed / Daily Shots / AI Chat (one or several)
    • User problem
    • Proposed solution
    • Key screens
    • Why it matters
  6. 6

    Final — present your solution

    Present your idea to the Glam AI team. An offline format in St. Petersburg is possible.
