48-Hour Website Workflow

Why this workflow exists

Most wireframe approval cycles take three to four weeks. The problem is not design skill. It is that the client sees a layout without ever seeing the reasoning behind it. They react emotionally, revisions pile up, and timelines stretch.

This workflow fixes that by building the strategic logic first, then making every design decision traceable back to the approved strategy. The client evaluates architecture, not aesthetics.

What you get

A clear four-phase process you can run on your next client project. Each phase has a specific tool, a defined time block, and a concrete output that feeds directly into the next step. You will know exactly what to do in each hour of the 48-hour window.

How to use this workflow

• Step 1. Strategy (Day 1, hours 1 to 4): Feed the founder's brief, emotions, and brand vibe into Claude. Ask it to produce a PRD (product requirements document) with site architecture, section hierarchy, and copy direction. Do not ask for copy or design at this stage.
• Step 2. Wireframe build (Day 1, hours 5 to 7): Take Claude's PRD and use it as the structural prompt for Antigravity or your AI coding tool. Every section in the wireframe maps directly to the architecture document. No blank-canvas guessing.
• Step 3. Annotation (Day 2, morning): Open the wireframe in Screen Brush. Mark specific production notes directly on the frame: which sections need real product photos, where the CTA changes on mobile, and what the founder must see in the first 3 seconds.
• Step 4. Client walkthrough (Day 2, afternoon): Record a Loom walkthrough of the annotated wireframe. Walk through every section, explaining the reasoning behind each design decision. Reference the original brief explicitly. Send the video to the client instead of booking a call.
• Step 5. Approval: The client watches the Loom on their own time, re-watches the specific sections they care about, and responds with a decision. No live meeting needed.
