Lyftdata

LyftData’s core product, aimed at developers and data analysts, had an outdated and cluttered interface with no design system in place. Usability was poor even for advanced users, and scalability was limited. As a startup with tight budget and time constraints, the redesign needed to be lean, efficient, and impactful.
