I reimagined onboarding as a conversation rather than a regular sequence of monotonous forms. Instead of static fields, users interacted with a virtual assistant that guided them through profile setup in a way that felt personal and familiar. The chat-based UI reduced friction, making onboarding feel more like a dialogue than a sign-up process.
To ease cognitive load, I introduced pre-filled message bubbles that let users select answers quickly, eliminating unnecessary typing. A progress indicator reassured users by showing how far they’d come, reducing frustration and uncertainty. Social logins were placed upfront, making sign-ups faster and ensuring richer profile data. Each data request was framed with clear, friendly explanations, addressing privacy concerns early and increasing user trust.
