Imagins

Imagins allows users to create stories from a brief prompt, customize characters, edit illustrations and text, and design covers. The project combines AI technology with creative freedom, offering a blank canvas for users to co create narratives.

My work focused on product design, strategy, and ensuring a seamless, intuitive experience in a rapidly evolving AI landscape.

As CPO and product designer of Imagins, I led the product's vision and strategy, shaping intuitive user flows and designing interfaces for story creation, character customization, and illustration editing.

I collaborated closely with the founding team to refine the MVP, ensuring that AI generated content was coherent, engaging, and aligned with our user centric goals. My work blended product strategy with hands on design, focusing on delivering a seamless and delightful experience for co-creative storytelling.

The main challenge of Imagins was building a startup from scratch in a fast moving AI landscape, with no fixed capital and limited time.

I had to navigate the uncertainties of emerging technology while balancing creative vision with technical feasibility. Additionally, collaborating with friends and family added a personal layer of complexity, making it essential to align expectations, iterate rapidly, and maintain focus on creating a product that was both usable and meaningful for children, parents, and educators.

I designed a flexible and modular interface that allowed users to generate, customize, and refine both stories and illustrations seamlessly. Providing clear workflows that guided users from a simple prompt to fully personalized stories, ensuring an intuitive experience despite the complexity of AI generated content.

By iterating closely with the founding team, I refined the MVP to balance creativity, usability, and technical feasibility, turning a blank canvas into a scalable product that encourages collaboration and imaginative storytelling.
