Capabilities

The System,
not the surface

◎

AI Systems

Gemini-powered menu digitization, AI OCR inventory auto-fill, and assistants that support decisions without replacing UI.

→ Gemini parses menu photos into structured data in seconds

⬡

Marketplace Design

Two-sided platforms with role-based onboarding, trust mechanisms, dual-sided analytics, and incentive alignment.

→ Gym marketplace: idle capacity matched to demand in 3 taps

◈

Accessibility

Cerebral Palsy, motor constraints, low-precision users. 96px+ targets, voice feedback, WCAG AA, shape-differentiated affordances.

→ Tap-anywhere zones eliminated precision requirement entirely

⬟

Behavioral UX

UX that solves emotional problems. Pre-event community building, friction-as-quality-filter, social safety systems.

→ Pre-event chat 72hrs before reduced no-shows by design

⬡

Offline-First Systems

IndexedDB ~50ms transactions, Web Bluetooth hardware bridging, conflict-resolution sync, zero data loss on reconnect.

→ PWA POS on any Android — no servers, no proprietary hardware

Case Studies

Four systems,
four problems

Each project tackles a different layer of complexity — from offline infrastructure to emotional barriers to inclusion.

Hi, I'm Vaani 👋

I'm a UI/UX & Product Designer who enjoys turning ideas into things people actually want to use.

Most of my projects start with a random thought like "why doesn't this exist?" or "there has to be a better way to do this" and somehow end up becoming wireframes, prototypes, and late-night design rabbit holes.

Over the last few years, I've worked on marketplaces, accessibility-focused products, AI-powered concepts, social experiences, and a bunch of ideas that probably shouldn't have made it past my notes app but did anyway.

When I'm not designing, I'm usually exploring new AI tools, creating content, watching anime (One Piece forever 🏴‍☠️), gaming, or getting distracted by some new product on the internet that made me think "that's actually clever."

I like building products, learning new things, and occasionally questioning every design decision at 2 AM.

Available for new projects

If you're building complex products, we should talk.
