UXFwd 2.0: Designing for Claude — From User Experience to Agent Experience
17 October 2026 | Coditas HQ, Viman Nagar, Pune | 10:00AM-01:00PM
Overview
The last decade of UX was about designing what people see and touch. The next one is about designing for software that plans, decides, and sometimes acts, before the user even asks.
UXFwd 2.0: Designing for Claude is a half-day gathering for UX practitioners working through what that shift actually demands, not in theory, but in the day-to-day work of designing real products.
The morning moves through three lenses, back to back:
The philosophy. What changes when software stops waiting for input and starts acting on the user's behalf, and what that demands of a designer's instincts.
The practice. What it actually looks like to design with Claude day to day: where it speeds you up, where it gets in the way, and what changes in your process once it's in the loop.
The judgment. The harder question most teams skip: not just whether AI can go into a product, but whether it should, and how you tell the difference.
Then the room gets to work. In the UXFwd Claude Design Challenge, teams take a shared brief and design against it live using Claude, with select teams presenting what they built.
Three practitioners, one honest arc, and a room full of people building the same muscle you are.
Whether you're two years into your career or leading a design team, you'll leave with a sharper read on where the work is headed.
