Description
A platform for designers to post work at any stage, get and give constructive feedback, and build your reputation within the community.
Real Designs Need Real Feedback
Designers can't work in a vacuum. They need honest critique on their work.
Likes don't Translate to Good Design
There is no dedicated app for deign critiques. Behance, Reddit, and Instagram promote algorithms for likes not feedback. The design community deserves a better way to critique work.
A Platform Built for Designers
With the ever-evolving digital world and it's rapidly changing standards, STATE needs to include all design disciplines and all methods for sharing content. Users can upload any file type from Figma prototypes to video files, to 3D models.
A Gated System that Rewards Constructive Feedabck
Rather than posting projects for likes, users get scored for project posting and critiquing. posting a project requires enough crit score which creates a nurturing community around sharing work as well as feedback.
