03

Documentation for engineering teams

04

Stakeholder Needs

Re-transcription Feature

👤 User Needs

15+ Users expressed interest in a shortcut to quickly re-process files.

Users don’t what settings to choose until after they view the file.

👔 Business Needs

The team needs a way to track people’s reason for re-transcription  to improve the transcription process.

User Flow

01

The re-transcription feature helps users save time and minimizes clicks

The re-transcription feature allows users to quickly and easily re-process their uploaded files without ever having to having to leave the transcript editor screen. Saving time and effort is critical for attorneys who spend hundreds of hours combing through evidence for their cases.

02

The feedback modal allows JT to collect data

Transcription is a primary function of the JusticeText platform.

By asking users to assign a reason for re-transcription, this will give the team further insight into why people are not satisfied with the initial transcription. Once enough data is collected, this will make it possible to validate our hypotheses.

User feedback allows JT to improve the transcription process overall.

🚀 Shipped!

So exciting to have a project built out. This feature is now available on staging for internal use and validation. Thanks to the engineering team for making this happen!

Once this feature is available in production the feedback modal will help us gain more insights and improve the transcription process.

Additional Contributions

Extras

Over the course of 10 weeks I led efforts for many new features and re-designs of components of the platform. The majority of these projects were based on internal requests from my mentor Sharon Tung and JusticeText CEO Devshi Mehrotra as well as specific feature requests from users. Here are a few additional projects I worked on!

Billing System

🧠 Problem

Contracted professionals need a way to track and report their usage hours to partner organizations.

💡 Solution

• Designed a UI flow for users to categorize their hours by case
• Data organized in a table for export

Placeholder Content

JusticeText brings moments of delight to users is through the playful illustrations that invite users to engage with key functionalities.

I created these graphics to occupy the negative space when users have not yet created clips or upload a file with no audio.

Reflection

My Experience at JusticeText

I was initially interested in JusticeText because of their commitment to the mission of creating technology to promote equitable treatment for marginalized communities within the justice system.

Working in the context of a startup team, I had the chance to work closely in a cross-functional product team and take part in lots of team meetings, sprint planning sessions, etc. One of the things I appreciated most about the company culture and the internship here was having a balance of structure within the existing design system as well as the flexibility to explore under the mentorship of Sharon Tung.

Moving forward I can say I’m much more confident as a product designer, especially in a corporate/startup context. My time here has given me a lot of clarity about what I want to do in the future and also helped me develop skills that I have no doubt will be transferrable in my next role. Incredibly grateful for this opportunity and a huge thanks to the team!
