Betafi is a start-up providing a one-stop solution for conducting UX research. • I worked with four other designers to enhance the UX of a web-based video call/ conferencing platform with actionable solutions and prototypes. • Had constant standups with the co-founders to prioritise features, and discuss user needs and the impact on business goals. • My key contribution was creating lo-fi wireframes that determined the visual direction of the product. • My designs increased the video call tool’s system usability score (SUS) by 38%.
