RESEARCH
We conducted an in-depth competitive analysis of AI research and academic writing platforms to understand industry standards and differentiation opportunities. User behavior studies involving researchers and institutional users helped identify expectations, usage patterns, and pain points. Based on these insights, key trust indicators such as transparency, clarity, and ethical AI communication were prioritized, while UX flows were optimized to reduce cognitive load and make complex research tools easier to understand and use.

USER FLOW
The user flow was designed to guide users seamlessly through the product while minimizing friction at every step. Each interaction is intentionally structured to ensure clarity, intuitive navigation, and a smooth progression toward the desired outcome.
Landing page with a clear AI value proposition
The journey begins with a high-impact landing page that clearly communicates what the product does, who it is for, and how AI enhances the user’s workflow. Key benefits are highlighted upfront to instantly capture attention and set expectations.
Feature discovery through structured sections
Product features are introduced in a logical, well-organized manner, allowing users to explore capabilities without feeling overwhelmed. Each section focuses on a specific use case or problem, helping users easily connect features to real-world value.
Optimized CTAs leading to onboarding
Strategically placed calls-to-action guide users toward the next logical step, whether it’s signing up, requesting a demo, or starting a free trial. The CTAs are designed to feel natural within the flow, not intrusive.
Guided first-time user experience
Once onboarded, users are supported with a guided experience that helps them quickly understand core features and achieve their first success. This reduces drop-offs and accelerates time-to-value, setting the foundation for long-term engagement.
KEY TAKEAWAY
The project successfully translated a complex AI research product into a credible, user-friendly, and scalable platform. The redesigned experience strengthened brand trust, improved engagement, and positioned Manuscripts.ai for long-term growth and institutional adoption.
