Qualitative Research
Contextual inquiries
We conducted contextual interviews and ride-alongs to better understand how rideshare users travel around and why they choose the modes they use. We probed deep into their pain points, motivations, and preferences.
Ideation Tools
Personas & journeys
Key personas were developed from the research data, uncovering unique qualities of differing target groups. We designed journeys for each persona to expose opportunities the design and product teams could address.
