The Outcome:
Alterscope's initial platform faced challenges with user experience and interface design. We stepped in to reimagine and revitalize their offering, transforming the alpha version into a live, fully-optimized product.
Our redesign delivered an intuitive and engaging user interface that has not only won over users but also garnered unanimous approval from investors. The new Alterscope now stands as a beacon of design excellence and functionality, reshaping the way risk is managed in real-time across the decentralized finance landscape.

Challenges: Racing Against Time:
Faced with the formidable task of designing a robust product in a mere three weeks, our team was propelled not just by the ticking clock but by the prospect of unveiling our work to hundreds of investors at a pivotal event.
How We Rose to the Challenge:
We orchestrated a lean, conveyor-like process that has since become a staple in our workflow, characterized by efficiency and collaborative synergy.
Here’s how we allocated tasks among our dedicated team members:
UX/UI Design Lead: Took the helm in analyzing in-depth interviews, extracting and synthesizing key insights.
Primary UX/UI Designer: Worked in tandem with the design lead, fueling the ideation process, prioritizing concepts, and initiating sketches and wireframes.
Secondary UX/UI Designers: Focused on fleshing out the UI design and concurrently developing the design system, ensuring each element aligned with the overarching vision.
This streamlined process functioned with precision—once a task was completed by one member, it seamlessly transitioned to the next, allowing the initial member to dive into the subsequent phase without delay.
