Comparison engine

Compare implies a technical analysis from the attributes of at least two things.

The main goal of this action is to define how we can help people choose the better choice after running a deep and logical analysis of all the attributes sorted. It also implies a sense of fairness and objectivity when we show the data.

Research insights

  • ‘I make decisions based on the cleaner UI.’
  • ‘I Invest to avoid the perfect storm.’
  • ‘I would say to the newcomers, jump in. Invest while you learn.’
  • ‘Trustworthy but not boring.’

Anything that can help form a creative decision for any aspect of the project, such as; colour, texture, composition, lighting, typography, style, era, video samples, shapes, any images that inspire an idea, and more.

A brand can only provide guidance if the people trust them

Aesthetics is not just about the artistic merit of web buttons or other visual effects but about how people respond to these elements.

The elements of a brand must have an attribute that reflects the company's values and lets them identify from the rest of the competitors.​

Brands that represent the core values of their users will be resilient to errors and miscommunications. We tend to show greater benevolence to those we like the most.​

Design system

We delivered a working product, design, and research system that set a foundation to build upon.

Research system

We took the «seeing is believing» philosophy, where insights from User Research were presented as bite-sized, tangible, and accessible nuggets of information that the stakeholders could understand. These nuggets served as research vignettes — evocative accounts of user pain points and desires.

UX Writing

New products come with a learning curve, and even long-term users sometimes need guidance. UX writing acts as a helping hand in these situations, making the experience straightforward and intuitive.
