Tackle real-world UX and product design challenges to build your skills and portfolio and create impactful solutions.
Small business owners and freelancers struggle with tracking business expenses, often mixing personal and professional spending. Poor expense management can lead to tax issues, inefficient budgeting, and financial stress. A well-designed expense management tool can simplify financial tracking and decision-making.
Freelancers and gig workers face challenges in managing taxes due to fluctuating income, lack of employer-provided documentation, and confusing tax requirements. Many rely on expensive accountants or spend hours manually organizing transactions. A more intuitive and automated tax filing solution can help self-employed individuals track income, maximize deductions, and file taxes seamlessly.
As small businesses grow, owners need to delegate financial tasks like issuing refunds, reviewing payments, or exporting reports. But current multi-user access systems are often buried in settings or overly complex. A clear, role-based access experience can empower teams without compromising security or control.
As SaaS products scale, aligning roadmap decisions with customer needs becomes critical—but feedback is often scattered across emails, chats, and surveys. Product managers like Alex need a centralized way to gather, categorize, and prioritize customer input, so they can focus on building what matters most to users.
Managing shared expenses with friends, roommates, or colleagues is often frustrating, leading to delayed payments and misunderstandings. While some apps offer bill-splitting features, they lack automation and integration with various payment platforms. A seamless expense-sharing tool can simplify payments and ensure fairness among users.
As teams grow, managing user permissions within a SaaS platform becomes increasingly complex. Different users need access to different data, features, and tools based on their roles. A flexible, scalable user permissions system ensures that sensitive information is protected while allowing teams to collaborate effectively.
Paying bills on time sounds simple, but many users juggle multiple due dates, varying amounts, and inconsistent payment channels. Missed payments lead to fees, stress, and broken trust. Most financial apps treat bills as just another transaction—rather than helping users anticipate, organize, and manage them proactively.
E-commerce teams rely heavily on historical data, but reacting to the past isn’t enough. They need forward-looking insights—who will buy, what’s trending, and when demand will spike. A predictive analytics system could help businesses anticipate customer needs and align their inventory, marketing, and operations before it’s too late.
Customers use different support channels—chat, email, phone—depending on urgency, device, or time. But most e-commerce platforms treat each channel as disconnected. Users repeat themselves, lose context, or get inconsistent answers. A smarter support system could unify these interactions into a consistent, personalized experience across every touchpoint.
Users frequently subscribe to multiple digital services, such as streaming platforms, SaaS tools, and memberships, often forgetting about recurring payments that accumulate over time. Many struggle with tracking, modifying, or canceling these subscriptions due to unclear billing cycles, hidden auto-renewals, and difficult cancellation flows. As a result, they face unexpected charges and feel a lack of control over their finances
Automated savings features help users build better money habits by transferring small amounts into savings based on rules or behaviors. But most systems feel static—“save $10 every week”—with no adaptation to income, spending, or goals. A smarter, more flexible automation system could transform how users build financial security passively.
Students managing financial aid, scholarships, and loans often struggle to track balances, repayment plans, and deadlines. Existing tools lack clarity, forcing students to navigate multiple platforms to understand their financial obligations. A unified, student-friendly platform can help simplify financial aid management and loan repayment planning.
In B2B marketplaces, buyers often place large orders that strain cash flow. Offering financing at the point of purchase can help—but many solutions feel bolted-on, overly technical, or risky. A well-integrated financing option could unlock bigger orders while maintaining buyer confidence and seller protection.
Users signing up for fintech services often struggle with complex identity verification (KYC) processes. They either find them too intrusive, too time-consuming, or lacking real-time feedback. A better UX can ensure compliance while improving user confidence.
