Challenge
Compensei is a platform that enables companies to measure, manage, reduce, and offset carbon emissions as part of their sustainability and ESG strategies.
The existing application was functionally robust but difficult to navigate. Users faced friction when trying to understand complex sustainability data, move between core features, and complete key actions. The interface did not clearly reflect users’ mental models, increasing cognitive load and slowing down decision-making.
Approach
Redesign the application to create a clear, intuitive, and task-oriented user experience, making complex environmental data easier to understand and act upon.
I followed a user-centered product design process, focused on clarity, usability, and scalability.
Design Process
Design decisions prioritized reducing cognitive load while maintaining the accuracy and credibility required for ESG and sustainability tools.
Mapped core user flows to understand how users interact with emissions data, reports, and compensation actions.
Reorganized information architecture to better align with users’ goals and expectations.
Simplified key workflows, reducing friction in high-frequency and high-impact tasks.
Introduced clearer visual hierarchy and interaction patterns to improve readability and comprehension.
Ensured consistency across screens and components to create a cohesive product experience.
Outcome
The redesigned application delivered a more efficient and confident user experience:
Improved usability: users can navigate the platform more easily and complete tasks with less effort.
Clearer data presentation: complex sustainability metrics are easier to interpret and compare.
Streamlined workflows: key actions — measuring, reducing, and compensating emissions — are more intuitive and connected.
Stronger product coherence: a consistent design system improved scalability and future feature development.
The redesign strengthened Compensei’s product by turning complex sustainability processes into an accessible, user-friendly experience, reinforcing the platform’s value for companies committed to decarbonization.
