Podigee

I redesigned core publishing workflows, built a shared design system and introduced AI insights for an established podcast platform.

Collaboration
Product & engineering

I led product design from early concepts through implementation. My brief was to modernise a mature podcast platform while protecting the workflows customers already knew.

The problem and my response

Familiar tasks. Clearer decisions.

Years of features had made everyday tasks harder to navigate. I reorganised the hierarchy of content, status and actions. Compare four workflows; the note below each screen explains the decision.

Management interface

Original interface

I grouped settings and quick actions around the show. These are related management screens, not identical task states.

Discovery & priorities

Decide what to keep.

I mapped core workflows and component variants, using customer feedback and support tickets to prioritise friction. I consolidated repeated patterns before refining their visual language.

Repeated information and actions needed a shared hierarchy.

Design system

Make recurring behaviour predictable.

Over ten months, I replaced accumulated patterns with 80+ reusable components. I worked with engineering on states and dependencies: file selection, upload, processing and playback became one coherent component family.

One task, with each transition considered.

New capability

Explain the insight before asking for a decision.

I designed and launched AI SEO Insights. I grouped episode quality, topic coverage and recommendations so a creator could move from a summary to an explanation. The model’s suggestions support editorial judgement; they do not replace it.

SEO Insights: quality, topics and recommendations

Product adoption

Show people what changed.

I carried the design into launch and tutorial videos to help people understand and use the new capabilities. Original recordings are in English.

Delivered work

A shared foundation for a growing product.

The work connected a reusable component library, redesigned workflows and a new AI capability. My contribution spanned concepts, prototypes and implementation collaboration; these are delivered outputs, not measured retention or conversion results.

What I learned

Modernising a familiar product means deciding what to preserve as carefully as what to change.

What could be easier to use?

Tell me about the product and the part that needs fixing. A few sentences is enough.
