Project summary
Approach:
We started the project with extensive research on the principles of communication. Our goal was to create a conversation experience that is engaging and fun for the user but at the same time fulfills the client’s business objectives.
After determining the main technical and design aspects of the conversational UI such as the answer format, displaying the conversation flow and messages arrangement, we focused on writing the script.
