This week we’re spotlighting Brand Score, a metric that goes beyond name recognition to show whether people actually connect with your brand. On the Glare page, we walk through how we tested Slack’s brand against competitors using three signals: recognition, sentiment, and likelihood to promote.
You’ll also find fresh clips from Sean Savage on how AI is reshaping product design, and Greg Nudelman’s take on designing for AI agents like coworkers—not just tools. We’ve made more updates to the Glare Wiki too, with cleaner visuals and improved AI prompt components.
Lots of sharp thinking in this issue, hope it sparks something useful. Bryan |

Brand Score shows you how well your brand actually lands with your audience. Not just if they recognize it, but if they actually connect with it.
On the Glare Brand Score page, we show how to measure brand strength across three key signals: market recognition, sentiment, and likelihood to promote. In this week’s example, we put Slack’s brand and homepage to the test against other competitors in their industry.
The score brings all three signals together into one number that tells you how your brand is performing in the eyes of real users. Brand Score helps you track perception, sharpen your message, and build a brand people trust and remember. Want to learn more or suggest edits? Let us know in the forum. |

Bryan highlights that business decisions often respond to today’s revenue and growth pressures, which can trap designers in short-term firefighting instead of building long-term user value.
He leans into how design earns influence when it connects current business goals with future user needs, using UX metrics to show the signals that bridge both. → Business decisions shape design around today’s problems. |
