Understanding online communities
We pulled insights from competitive analysis, studying community platforms. Intuitive discovery tools stood out, shaping our approach to navigation and content hierarchy.

Finding key drivers for user connectivity
We organized each competitor using a 'how might we' exercise, which helped us create a list of main features for the MVP.
Redefining Priorities: From Discoverability to Engagement
We tested wireframes and found that focusing on content discoverability didn’t meet users' core needs. Prioritizing content creation and user connections aligned better with our goals, so we refined the wireframes to emphasize those areas.
Keeping people engaged
We added visuals, adjusted hierarchy, and refined call-to-actions to support content creation and engagement.
We created a "For you page" inspired by Tiktok, divided in interests, locations and subjects.
Grouping content
one of the main features of the platform was allowing content to be user generated and categorized by AI to generate subjects or groups for people to interact with eachother.

Searching and connecting with people
Connecting with people spread across the globe within organizations was key, we decided to allow people to search among different interests, including projects, location and skillset.
Content is king
last but not least, creating content was the core of the experience, this is how employees would share their knowledge, projects, learnings and insights
This project showed how LLMs can enhance knowledge-sharing and help employees collaborate. A 2025 version could address current gaps and unlock new features as AI and companion apps grow.
