Beyond BAU
Productivity tools, knowledge management systems, research sprints, and team-building frameworks developed to automate workflows and optimize collaboration.
Comment Analyzer Plugin
The Problem
Figma comment threads lack organization and sentiment categorization, creating a manual triage bottleneck during team reviews.
What was built
An LLM-powered Figma plugin that automatically aggregates and tags comments by category (e.g. UX bug, copy suggestion) and priority.
Outcome
Reduced critique triage and action-item review times by 40%.
Design Decision Log
The Problem
The reasoning behind design pivots is frequently lost in Slack chats or old Figma versions, causing alignment issues months down the line.
What was built
A Figma canvas annotation plugin synced directly with centralized documentation workspaces (Notion/GitHub) via webhooks.
Outcome
Improved documentation standards and reduced onboarding overhead for new designers and developers.
Design System Research
The Problem
Low adoption rates of system components across platform teams resulted in visual drift and redundant custom components.
What was done
Researched with 12 designers across India and US with a different set of tasks on using complex components such as Tables and analyzed the time taken for building a customized component for their requirement.
Outcome
Increased design system adoption by 40% more from teams.
Team Personality Workshop
The Problem
Growing team sizes and mismatched communication preferences created friction and alignment gaps during co-design sessions.
What was done
Facilitated an interactive workshop based on the book Surrounded by Idiots. Administered surveys to map communication trait colors and strengths.
Outcome
Delivered trait reports to leadership; insights were shared with senior management to form tailored collaboration structures.
Design System Assistant Agent
The Problem
Designers and developers waste time cross-referencing design tokens, content rules, and accessibility docs, leading to handoff issues.
What was built
An AI copilot equipped with component, content, and accessibility specs. Supports screen uploads to detect design issues, handles general design doubts, and answers developer queries on pattern specs.
Outcome
Tested it with 10 designers, saving 30% of their time and allowing them to focus on user problems instead of findability issues.
