We Use AI to Accelerate Product Development by 5x. Here’s How You Can Too.
In today’s fast-paced digital world, speed can be the difference between a market leader and a follower.
For DigitSense, the mission has always been to stay ahead, and one of the ways we achieve this is by leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) to accelerate our product development process by up to 5x.
Imagine cutting your time-to-market dramatically while ensuring quality and innovation.
We’re not just talking about a vision of the future. This is happening now, and we’re sharing exactly how you can do it too.
Whether you’re a startup racing to validate an idea or an established company aiming to streamline workflows, here’s a look into the AI tools that we’ve integrated into our product lifecycle, from ideation and design to development and refinement.
Product Management: Streamlining the Planning Process
Every product needs a solid foundation, starting with strategic planning and roadmap alignment. Traditional product management involves a lot of guesswork and manual adjustments, but AI-driven tools like Zeda.io and ChatPRD have transformed how we manage this phase.
- Zeda.io helps us streamline project workflows with automated roadmap creation, prioritization, and real-time tracking. With insights generated from historical data and predictive analytics, we’re able to see potential obstacles before they happen and make data-driven decisions on features to focus on.
- ChatPRD accelerates the ideation process, providing us with a virtual assistant that intuitively understands project requirements, answers questions, and even drafts product requirement documents. With this, our team can jump directly into developing impactful features, cutting down planning time significantly.
These tools bring clarity, speed, and precision to product management, making it possible to hit the ground running faster than ever.
Product Design: Lightning-Fast UX Testing and Conversion Optimization
Tool: DesignPro.ai
Design is where ideas take shape, and traditionally, this can be a lengthy process of multiple iterations and feedback loops. Enter DesignPro., an AI-powered assistant for UX analysis and usability testing that enables designers, product managers, and marketers to improve user experience and drive conversions in minutes.
- Lightning AI Reviews & UX Tests: DesignPro provides rapid, AI-driven UX analysis and usability testing, identifying opportunities to improve websites and apps. By enhancing user experience, we see measurable boosts in user engagement and conversions almost instantly.
- Smart Copy Improvements: The AI suggests optimized copy for websites, apps, alerts, and modals, designed to enhance clarity around product benefits. This feature is key for creating seamless user journeys that highlight product value effectively.
- UI Audits with Best-Practice Checks: To ensure consistency and adherence to high standards, DesignPro’s AI flags UI issues in real-time, referencing industry guidelines from sources like Nielsen Norman and Refactoring UI. This tool gives us a streamlined quality check before designs are handed off to engineering or presented to clients.
- Trained on Leading Design Principles: DesignPro’s AI leverages insights from hundreds of design guidelines, including those from Nielsen Norman, Material Design, and IDEO. This allows us to quickly deliver designs that are polished and aligned with proven UX principles.
With DesignPro, DigitSense enhances designs efficiently, accelerating feedback cycles and optimizing outcomes to save time and costs.
Product Development: Faster Code with AI
Tool: Locofy.ai
After the design phase, the next hurdle is translating concepts into code a traditionally time-intensive task. With Locofy, we’ve automated a significant portion of our coding process, helping us turn design components directly into functional code.
Locofy.ai allows us to bridge the gap between design and development. By generating code snippets from design elements, it eliminates the need for manual coding of repetitive components, making development faster without compromising quality.
This isn’t about replacing developers; it’s about giving them a powerful tool to work smarter and focus on the more complex elements that require human creativity.
One of our development projects saw an impressive reduction in development time, enabling us to deliver an MVP in half the usual time, thanks to Locofy.ai’s integration.
Refinement: Enhancing Quality and Collaboration
Tool: Frame.ai
In the refinement stage, user feedback and team collaboration are crucial for a polished product. Frame.ai has become an essential part of this phase, improving communication and making feedback actionable.
Frame.ai uses AI to analyze feedback from various sources, support tickets, user reviews, or internal discussions, grouping similar points and highlighting key areas for improvement. This means we’re no longer sifting through endless feedback but instead focusing on meaningful, relevant insights that can truly enhance the product.
By refining our approach to feedback and collaboration, Frame.ai helps us deliver products that better meet user needs, without the time drain of traditional feedback processing.
Adopting AI tools has helped us reduce our product development timelines, improve quality, and remain agile in an increasingly competitive market.
With tools like Zeda.io, ChatPRD, DesignPro.ai, Locofy.ai, and Frame.ai, we’ve unlocked efficiency across every stage of the product lifecycle and you can too.
