Hello, we are Lizco Studios —a product design studio that integrates with your team. Our process prioritizes doing over thinking, and usability over everything.
Below are some recent highlights, the case studies are a work in progress, if you have questions, definitely slide into our DMs
Headstarter is an early stage startup with a vision for an AI professor that helps CS students get jobs. We designed the entire platform focusing on a user experience that would engage, delight, and retain their audience of Gen Z’ers looking for their first software engineering gig. Beyond the MVP launch we have evolved the design to create a lovable product that has seen steady growth and continues to increase MoM retention.
Open edX is an open source Learning Management System that thousands of companies have built their businesses on. The team at Axim Collaborative, the nonprofit organization that runs OpenEdx, needed a way for their thousands of course authors to be able to reference content in a single place for use in their myriad online courses. The launch of libraries is expected to have a massive impact on the way course authors find content and use it within their courses, making it much easier and more efficient to build complex online courses.
PACE was designed for runners with a training goal - aimed to serve busy athletes, PACE utilized artificial intelligence that would adjust an athlete's training plan based on their performance. We paired the AI with real coaches to give the athlete a real sense of accountability to the programming. PACE allowed coaches to scale their reach and athletes to get a custom training plan at a fraction of the cost of hiring a coach. PACE launched in 2021 and saw great adoption at launch. Unfortunately, the app was sunset before we could really see it take off due to a change in strategy by the parent company.
We transformed the TrainingPeaks mobile navigation to engage and retain athletes. We helped solve TrainingPeaks’ declining adoption by designing a landing experience in their mobile app where users could get a glimpse into their training journey. The new landing experience significantly increased adoption in the TrainingPeaks mobile app.
Ongoing
We work together on an ongoing basis, at your pace, as semi-embedded members of your team. These engagements typically last more than 6 months. We often start with a shorter engagement to ensure we are a good fit before moving to a longer agreement.
