A portfolio evidence management and case-study generation SaaS for product designers.

The problem
Senior product designers are expected to produce highly detailed, polished, metrics-driven case studies under tight deadlines. Their evidence is scattered across design files, documents, analytics tools, and past employers; much of it is confidential, unpublished, or inaccessible after leaving a company. Reconstructing iterations, decisions, outcomes, edge cases, and individual contributions for each application becomes a recurring, exhausting task on top of their normal job.
