Mapscaping podcast: an interview with Felt's CEO

The text discusses the background and achievements of Felt's CEO, who began as a product designer working with government agencies before founding Remix, a company that revolutionized city planning software by allowing cities to digitally plan infrastructure like bike lanes and bus routes, transforming a traditionally paper-based process into an interactive experience embraced by cities worldwide. Remix gained significant traction, becoming the default planning tool for major cities such as New York and London. The narrative also highlights a broader trend in the software industry, where tools are evolving to become more engaging and enjoyable to use, similar to how Google Sheets, Airtable, Notion, and Figma have transformed their respective fields by prioritizing user experience and delight. This shift emphasizes the importance of creating software that keeps users engaged and focused on their tasks rather than the software itself.
