Information Architecture Redesign

The browsing experience at Retool spans many surface areas where different personas (admins, developers, and end users) create, discover and use internal apps. As part of a small design team, I led the redesign process: from conducting and moderating research, defining personas and their needs, to prioritizing features in close collaboration with engineering and product.

The focus of this project was twofold: improving app discoverability and designing a new feature called Projects.

Builder experience: prompt composer, templates, starring, Data, Agents and search
End user experience: switching persona, task composer, recents and All apps
Projects deep dive: teams, a team’s projects, and a project’s overview, access and usage
Milestone switcher: the first committed milestone, then the second

Part of design process: low-fidelity flow charting
