Chonkie, an always-on AI agent that monitors data and surfaces key insights automatically. Backed by Y Combinator.
They came to Arc with one objective in mind, make the product easy to use for both technical and non-technical people.
Empty state of Knowledge Base (Custom mascots created for each empty state)
Search functionality across the product (⌘ + K)
Analysis creation
Took the core product from zero to production, leading product design, system thinking, and implementation to ship a usable, scalable foundation.
Chonkie News
A news platform for Chonkie users to see what’s happening in the tech and AI world, powered by Chonkie’s always-on AI agent.
We designed and built the platform end-to-end, shaping the product experience, information flow, and real-time signal-to-story pipeline.
The system continuously monitors signals across the web, filters noise, and transforms raw information into clear, relevant stories. Built to help users quickly understand what matters, spot emerging trends, and stay ahead without information overload.
Website
The marketing site designed to communicate Chonkie’s vision, product, and value clearly from the first interaction.
We designed and built the website end-to-end, defining structure, visual language, and storytelling to translate a complex AI product into a simple, understandable experience.
Focused on clarity, hierarchy, and product narrative, the site introduces Deep Research, explains the always-on agent model, and guides users from discovery to product understanding and action.
