๐Ÿ”ฅ 3 Days That Rewired My Entire Design Mindset Just completed the UX ร— AI Trilogy with Rajat Patel, and Iโ€™m genuinely convinced learning this earlier wouldโ€™ve made me grow 10ร— faster as a designer. Hereโ€™s the short, real version of what changed for me: 1๏ธโƒฃ Day 1 โ†’ Product Thinking > Pretty UI We broke down Zeptoโ€™s approach to Search not as a feature, but as a system shaped by speed, intent, metrics, and constraints. This was the moment I realised: UI is easy. Understanding impact is the real challenge. 2๏ธโƒฃ Day 2 โ†’ AI Isnโ€™t a Shortcut Itโ€™s Pure Leverage AI went from being a tool to becoming a force multiplier for: โœ“ Research โœ“ Framing problems โœ“ Storytelling โœ“ Prototypes โœ“ Case studies The possibilities blew my mind. 3๏ธโƒฃ Day 3 โ†’ Communication = A Designerโ€™s Superpower Rajatโ€™s breakdown of clarity, influence, and storytelling hit hard. Good designers design. Great designers communicate. This is the skill Iโ€™m mastering in 2025. My biggest takeaway: โ†’ Think in systems โ†’ Communicate clearly โ†’ Use AI smartly โ†’ Design for impact โ†’ Keep enjoying the UX process Huge thanks to Rajat Patel , Designare, and Vannsh Agrawal for an eye-opening experience. Feeling energised and ready for the next leap ๐Ÿš€

Most of us buy the same items again and again, yet the search journey often slows us down. Typing, scrolling, navigating, and facing out of stock dead ends create friction that breaks momentum. For this concept case study, I explored how Zepto could simplify early steps and turn repeat purchasing into a smooth, habit-forming flow. ๐Ÿญ. ๐—š๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—•๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ฅ๐—ฒ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด A simple lift, drag, and drop interaction that lets users add or increase quantity without losing rhythm. This reduced time per item and improved repeat purchase velocity. ๐Ÿฎ. ๐— ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—”๐˜„๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—”๐˜‚๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฆ๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ด๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€ Search predicts what users may need based on time of day. Breakfast, lunch, snacks, dinner. This helped users reach their first item faster. ๐Ÿฏ. ๐—ฆ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜ ๐—ฆ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐—ฝ Unavailable items auto replace with relevant alternatives based on user habits. This kept users in the journey and lowered drop offs while improving trust in recommendations. The goal was clear. Reduce early effort, keep users moving, and create a faster, more intuitive way to reorder essentials.
