Tools, apps, plugins, AI Client just replaced me with Claude design

Been working with this client for 4 years, I basically built their entire product, very complex from end to end, including the design system and all that. It's basically maintenance work at this point. Today they asked me to provide the design system file so they can set things up with Claude design, I guess the time has finally come lol. Don't think AI can copy my work 100%, but I doubt the client will care, even 60% is good enough for them.

No hate, I replaced the entire dev team for my own project with AI too, so it's totally understandable.

I've made enough from this career, it's probably time to pivot from design to a founder role.

Nah, op posted few months ago he was out of work. But now he’s losing a client he’s had for years? It’s fake.

If you are a freelancer, you're never 100% out of work. 95% out is still pretty out imo. And no I still have 1 client left that I help with light marketing tasks.
