Production Technology
The UX design of Grafa was developed using Adobe’s XD product and the front-end of the app was originally built in React Native, but later re-built in HTML.

The app has been built on the AWS cloud infrastructure, which allows for rapid and global scale.

The app is now available on the App Store and Google Play.
Design Challenge
The biggest challenge has been the balance between design and speed. We found an almost direct trade off between the detail of the design and the load times of the app.

We needed to rebuild the front end in a simpler format to be able to achieve the level and sophistication of design that we wanted, without sacrificing speed.

While we had a beautiful product at our soft launch, the beauty gives way to frustration if the app takes too long to load.

It took time and patience, but we have now managed to achieve both and are ready for rapid, global scale.
Research
Grafa researched its direct competitors, such as Bloomberg, Yahoo Finance, Reuters and TradingView as well as other software-as-a-service companies including Canva, Redditt and Netflix.

It also drew inspiration from Apple, which was able to distinguish itself for good design across its entire product suite.

The design considered psychology, published interviews by the CEOs of competitors and extensive user testing.

Given the main premise was to be entertaining, the darker background colours of the app were to give the appearance the user was watching television.
Inspiration
The inspiration for Grafa’s design was from the single premise that finance needed to entertain to achieve mass adoption.

We used dark navy as the main app background, with light blue highlights which helps boost alertness, heighten reaction times and elevate moods.

The app design needed to be clean, seamless and give the impression that no expense had been spared.

In a genre in which good design is an afterthought, we wanted Grafa to be known for making finance beautiful.
Project Duration
Grafa started in Australia in 2019, and the first release of the app was in November 2020. The app gained a small user base, the feedback was that the app needed to improve its load speed.

This feedback prompted a redesign and rebuild of the front-end of the app and this was launched in April 2021.

User feedback is that the current product exceeds expectations and has the potential for global scale.
Operation Flow
Grafa allows users to chart multi-asset data sets, and uses advanced search functionality and AI-curation to search/curate/organise enormous volumes of data, news, video and analysis within milliseconds.

The infinite scrolling functionality of social media platforms like Facebook have been incorporated into the Grafa app. This technology has proven to be habit forming.

This keeps users looking at their phones for far longer than necessary - it was originally based on the mechanics of slot machines.
Patents
Grafa has an Innovation Patent pending.
