Work on real challenges from tech startups
Work on real challenges from tech startups

We collaborated with a stealth startup led by the Ex-CPO of Tinder to rethink the first-time user experience for an AI-powered real-estate platform. In just two weeks, 20+ Yummy Labs designers mapped user journeys, redefined trust touchpoints, and prototyped onboarding and discovery flows tested with early users.

Designers were also challenged to design the next wave of human–AI interactions, prototype with code, and bridge the gap between design and engineering.

Design Challenge

Create a Neighborhood Discovery experience that helps users: 

  • Get an authentic feel for a neighborhood’s vibe, culture, and lifestyle. 

  • Access useful local information, like schools, amenities, and walkability, in a visually inviting format. 

  • Explore neighborhoods in an interactive, social-first way rather than through static data.
