AI-app builder for AI Platform
UX/UICompetitor analysisPrototypingUsability test
Task
- Design a constructor tool for AI product owners on the AI Platform
- Enable owners to assemble the client-facing interface users interact with after purchasing a solution
- Allow configuring block and action visibility based on purchase status
- Reduce the cost of building custom interfaces
- Keep users within the AI Platform instead of relying on external On-Premise or SaaS solutions
What was done
- Defined the solution format as a constructor with ready-made blocks, since building custom interfaces requires significant resources and letting users upload their own code to the platform raises security concerns
- Researched adjacent analogues, since no direct competitors existed at the time: business process and scenario builders, low-code platforms with visual flow assembly, Flutterflow, chatbot builders
- Ran a series of brainstorms with analysts and the product owner on usage scenarios, user journey, stages of building an AI application, and naming for constructor blocks
- Built a first prototype and tested it with product owners from neighboring teams
- Identified key issues: naming of application types and templates, insufficient accessibility of descriptions and instructions, unclear purpose of functions, and a request to see the full status chain at once rather than broken into separate views
- Built a second prototype incorporating the feedback and references, and ran another round of testing
- Refined copy based on the second round of feedback and prepared final mockups
Result
- Designed a flexible tool for building AI applications on top of the AI Platform
- The project remained a concept — development of the AI Platform was frozen and the team was moved to a different division
