Swiftsign
Pre-Seed
2020 - 2024 • CEO & Founder

Founded and launched a B2B contract management platform in just 5 months

B2B contracting is painful. Companies are using more than five tools to create, negotiate, and sign just one contract. This costs companies valuable time and is highly inefficient, leading to long sales cycles, lost revenue, increased costs, and no scalability.

Using Swiftsign, every team manages contracts faster, more simply, and all in one place.

  • Led the design and launch of a complex contract workflow product, achieving a successful launch with 12 beta companies within 5 months.
  • Managed a team of 7 developers and 1 product manager, increasing retention by 26% and leading to a 20% rise in user satisfaction.

fraud0
Series A
2022 - Today • Founding Product Designer

Building a fraud traffic analytics platform to reduce your ad spent

Nearly half of online traffic originates from bots, and since AI, these numbers have risen unpredictably. This is costing companies and marketers data accessibility, leading to highly ineffective decisions, lost revenue, and increased costs.

Using fraud0, fraudulent traffic can be identified and blocked from all channels to help marketers make clear decisions again.

  • Built and launched the product with the founders, scaling it to a three-digit number of SMB customers, resulting in a 2X YoY growth.
  • Relaunched the website, which increased the conversion rate by 20% and enhanced experience consistency.

fraud0 is rated as G2 high performer and trusted by leading companies.

Tucan Ai
Seed
2019-2020 • Founding Product Designer

Led the design of three product pivots based on intensive research in the audio transcription field

Professionals spend on average 6-8 hours in total preparing and correcting a transcript of a one hour interview. This manual process is highly inefficient, costing companies valuable time, leading to high costs and lost revenue.

The in-house developed AI from Tucan: 10x accelerates the transcription of every audio to create accurate transcripts.

  • Launched three product pivots: a C2C social media network based on a voice mobile app, a B2C podcasting platform and a B2B AI transcription platform, securing a large six-digit funding round.

STINT
Series A
2018 • Founding Product Designer

Built my first end-to-end MVP within 4 months for a current industry leader
