Project Goals

  • Business Goal: To improve user adoption and retention by delivering an intuitive MVP that simplifies organization, reduces information overload, and competes effectively with leading productivity tools.

The Challenges

  • Narrowing down features for the MVP without recreating everything tools like Evernote, Confluence, Miro, and Apple Notes already do.

  • Designing organization tools that actually reduced overwhelm instead of adding more complexity.


The Solutions

  • We prioritized key features like easy-to-use to-do lists, a customizable calendar, and a Kanban board for task management and tracking.

  • Our design aims to provide a comprehensive, flexible, and user-friendly solution that meets the diverse needs of our users.
