The Problem & Opportunity

After interviewing 50+ creators, we identified critical pain points: 30% platform fees eating into revenue, algorithmic changes destroying reach overnight, and zero content ownership. These insights shaped our decentralized approach.

User Research & Insights

Through 40 in-depth interviews and analysis of 1,000+ creator support tickets from competing platforms, we mapped the economic and technical barriers preventing Web3 adoption. Wallet complexity emerged as the #1 blocker.

User Flow & Information Architecture

Designed a hybrid custody model where users can start with email login and gradually transition to self-custody. This reduced onboarding friction by 75% while maintaining Web3 principles. Smart contract interactions happen invisibly in the background.

Brand Identity & Visual Design

Developed a visual language that demystifies blockchain - using familiar social media patterns while introducing Web3 concepts progressively. Color psychology research informed our palette choice to build trust in a nascent technology.

Design System & Components

Built a scalable design system with reusable components optimized for both creator and subscriber experiences.

User Interface Design

Built a feed algorithm that prioritizes creator earnings over engagement metrics. Implemented real-time blockchain transaction status with optimistic UI updates, making crypto payments feel instant despite network latency.
