ALLURE SYSTEMS

OPPORTUNITY

Allure Systems harnesses proprietary hardware, advanced virtualization and computer vision technologies to create stunning on-figure garment images for clothing retailers.

The technology enables users to shoot without the need to hire models or photographers.

ROLE

Working with the CEO, CTO and R&D Team, I was in charge of the conception and design of the SaaS experience.

We've created a comprehensive solution to answer fashion e-retailers needs:

• A studio technology to shoot pictures without model 
• An automated image processing solution
• A SaaS platform to manage the assets and the workflow

WORK

I introduced UX concepts and best practices to the team as we switched from a waterfall workflow to an Agile/SCRUM process.

I lead the overall design process and a team of 5 front and backend developers. The goal was to make sure developers have the opportunity to impact on design decisions as well as detecting technical issues and challenges early. Daily stand-ups, a SCRUM wall and a backlog were great tools to improve to communication and follow-up with the work.

We developed and shipped a MVP within 6 months to test in a real environment with our first prospect. The first results were beyond our expectations.

I produced sketches, wireframes and interactive prototypes, user and workflows and user stories.
