Project Description
Led the creation and strategy of Prova.ai, an AI-powered platform designed to help entrepreneurs and product teams create interactive prototypes in minutes, without design or coding skills. Conducted market research, developed the product prototype, created a detailed financial model, and designed the pitch deck, highlighting Prova.ai’s AI-driven capabilities for automating UX and gathering real-time feedback.
Challenges & Solutions
Entrepreneurs and product teams faced the challenge of building prototypes without technical or creative expertise, making the process time-consuming and costly.
I developed an AI-powered platform that automatically generated interactive prototypes by analyzing thousands of apps. This allowed users to build, share, and receive feedback on their prototypes in minutes. I also led the creation of the pitch deck, showcasing the business model and AI capabilities, and supported fundraising efforts.
Key Contributions
Led market research to validate the product concept, focusing on entrepreneurs and product teams in early-stage startups.
Developed the product prototype using AI and machine learning to automate UX decisions based on app data.
Created the financial model, projecting costs and revenue, and supported the potential freemium model with monthly subscriptions.
Designed and built the investor pitch deck to demonstrate the platform’s value and potential in the prototyping space.
Focused on the business strategy, highlighting user acquisition through SEO, social media, and targeted platforms like AngelList and Stack Overflow.
Impact
Though Prova.ai did not go to market, the platform’s AI-driven approach to prototyping addressed a significant pain point for non-technical users. The product prototype and financial model provided valuable insights for the product-market fit and demonstrated a scalable business model.
