Chat with the Framework

Welcome! I'm here to help you understand the E-P-I-A-S × SAE Framework from John Maeda's Design in Tech Report 2026.

You can ask me about:

  • What different SAE levels mean for designers
  • How to grow within your current level
  • Transition strategies (e.g., L2 → L3)
  • Tools and practices at each level
  • The difference between depth and breadth
