Component Architecture & Design Ecosystem

I established a comprehensive design system and component library to ensure a scalable, lightweight frontend and seamless handoff to engineering.

User Experience Beyond the "Happy Path"

Designing for constraints: I created specific error states to guide users when files exceed size limits or are protected.
Retention Design: I developed a strategic offboarding flow to capture user feedback and highlight core value propositions.

The native AI Summarizer chat panel allows users to extract key document insights directly within the Chrome PDF viewer.
