As part of Fintech Hackathon, I collaborated with a team to design a mobile app that aimed to simplify and streamline the process of tax returns. Our goal was to create an app that made tax filing easy, convenient, and hassle-free for users.
Say goodbye to tax return headaches with Plutus, the ultimate mobile app designed to make filing your taxes a piece of cake! We wanted to make the process easy, convenient, and even enjoyable, so we focused on creating a modern and engaging design that will have you saying, "Tax season? No problem!"
With a focus on engaging and modern design, the app offers a user-friendly interface that guides you through the process effortlessly.
Research
From the get-go, we dived deep into understanding the pain points and frustrations experienced by individuals during tax season. Armed with this knowledge, we embarked on a design odyssey to create an app that would melt away tax-related stress like a ray of sunshine.

We know that diving into tax jargon can be overwhelming, so we kickstart your Plutus journey with a fun and hassle-free onboarding experience. We'll show you just how Plutus simplifies tax returns, kisses paperwork goodbye, and saves you precious time.

In a bittersweet twist, our tax-filing adventure project unfortunately met an untimely demise. Years later, I find myself revisiting the concept and whispering to myself, "That was actually a good idea."
Though the project may have faded into the background, it left an indelible mark on my journey as a designer. It serves as a constant reminder of the boundless potential that exists within every idea, even if circumstances prevent their full realization.
