This project won the Best User Design and the Grand Prize at the Technovation competition. As a result, we were invited for a Google interview and featured on the University of Waterloo Faculty of Mathematics YouTube channel which is the video shown above.

The journey involved market research, iterative development, and pitching to a judging panel. Working on DiRect helped strengthen our skills in UX design, agile teamwork, and impactful storytelling.
