AI & Product Design

Everyone wants AI in their product, but whether it actually works depends on how you design it. We help you build AI features that people understand and trust—by starting with what users truly need, not just what the technology can do.

Recognize these challenges?

Many companies hit the same blockages when implementing AI:

  • "Nobody uses our AI feature": The feature works perfectly from a technical standpoint, but users don't understand when to use it or why they should trust it.
  • "We don't know where to start": There are endless possibilities with AI, but which one actually solves the problem for your users?
  • "Users don't trust the AI": Rightly so. A black box making decisions without explanation doesn't feel safe.

AI as an accelerator, not a replacement

At Hike One, we approach AI from two angles:

AI in the design process: We use AI tools ourselves to reach better insights faster. Not to take over our work, but to free up more time for what’s truly important: understanding user needs. We use it for initial analysis of user research and creating prototypes to test big assumptions.

Designing AI features for people: We design AI features that focus on transparency, user control, and real-world testing. We collaborate with data scientists and LLM modelers to ensure generated data is presented in a usable and user-friendly way.

Characteristics
User research is incidental and ad hoc.
Fragmented and outdated user journey maps.

Insights are not findable or accessible for every team.

No set of fixed methods.
Initiating fixed working methods.

Systematic.

The user journey becomes the starting point for the workflow.

Central storage of insights. Rights and access are managed.

Continuous user research, testing and implementation of improvements.
The same, interchangeable methods for collecting user data throughout the organization.

It is clear who can (and must) make the decisions.

Every product team - in all relevant chapters and departments - has the same way of working.
What we do
We start with a short audit.

We help you realize your first successes.

We give you the tools to work based on user data. We collect input from your target group.

Depending on where you are, Hike One can take responsibility while we take care of the implementation together.
We help with creating structure, defining roles and selecting the right tools.

We help to coach your (new) experts in-house.

We ensure that you can deliver consistently high quality with less effort.

Together we continuously map and manage the user journey, with responsibility increasingly shifting to your own team members.
We help you get the entire organization working based on user journeys.

We spread the gospel across all silos and we help coach the coaches.

If necessary, we help develop the business case and present it at C-level.
