Instant Ownership Check
A new bank contract was on the table, but our existing IOC product was scoring poorly on NPS and the prospective client wanted a serious UX upgrade before signing. I had four weeks. No PM.

Overview
Advarisk sells property verification to Indian banks; every loan needs an ownership check (who owns it, any encumbrances, clean title).
IOC promised to do this in minutes by pulling from state revenue databases. Good pitch, failing product.
Screens were walls of near-identical tables.
Match accuracy shown as percentages nobody understood, so ops re-verified everything from scratch.
Undecoded acronyms, no map (every banker opened Google Maps in a second tab).
NPS was low. A prospective bank: "We like your data. We don't like your interface. Fix it and we'll sign."
The approach
Four weeks, no PM.
Reused the design system I'd already built across three Advarisk products, so components and tokens were ready.
Worked off real evidence: six months of support tickets clustered by frequency (same three questions repeating).
Sales-feedback log captured every demo objection, including the new bank's UX critique.
Shadowed ops analysts and bankers to see what they did, not what they said.
Mapped problems, made the calls, prototyped, validated with users, shipped.
The Solution
A map on every case page, since bankers were already doing it manually.
Adjectives instead of percentages, turning a verdict into an action signal.
AI that shows its work: confidence taxonomy shaped with the data team, every machine-written element clearly labelled.
One product, two surfaces: work queue for ops, status dashboard for bankers, joined by a shared chat rail.
Accessibility as an adoption lever: colour, icon, and text each carry status independently.
The result
IOC became Advarisk's top revenue-generating product.
2 new bank contracts signed within a quarter, both citing the new UX.
"What does this score mean?" tickets effectively disappeared in the first month.
Bulk upload recovery climbed from ~23% to ~78%, saving tens of thousands of rows from manual re-keying.
The PDF report I built solo over a weekend (Figma MCP + Claude Code) still ships every report update.
