UX Strategist & AI App Developer (AI-assisted App Strategy) at Own Projects (Nutrycoach.ai, LuxuryBandit)

Conceptualizing and developing AI-powered app MVPs from the first idea to a working product. I combine UX strategy with modern AI and no-code tools — especially Claude and Claude Code, where I work directly in the terminal on real code (React, Vite), complemented by Figma, Bolt.new, and Base44 — to quickly validate and build product ideas. Personal platforms: Nutrycoach.ai (AI nutrition coaching with role-based dashboards for clients, coaches, and admins, AI meal analysis, and a scalable design system) and LuxuryBandit (content/creator app). This led to my own practice 'AI-assisted App Strategy', which combines human creativity, UX logic, and intelligent automation.

About the technology

Purpose and outcomes

Usability Testing evaluates how easily people can complete tasks in a website, mobile app, SaaS product or service. Participants attempt realistic journeys while a specialist observes behavior, confusion and expectations. The result is evidence-based guidance for improving navigation, content, interaction design and conversion paths.

Research formats

Testing can be moderated, with a specialist guiding a live session, or unmoderated, with participants completing tasks independently. Remote sessions support broader access, while in-person research can reveal physical context and environmental factors. Qualitative findings explain why problems occur; structured task results help teams prioritize them.

Methods and tools

Strong specialists select methods that fit the product stage, audience and research question. Their toolkit may include interview scripts, screening questionnaires, clickable prototypes, production interfaces, session recordings and accessibility checks. They often work with product analytics, heatmaps, survey tools, Figma prototypes and research repositories to connect observed behavior with other evidence.

Typical project work

  • Define research goals, user profiles and realistic task scenarios
  • Recruit suitable participants and prepare consent and screening flows
  • Moderate sessions or configure unmoderated studies
  • Analyse recordings, notes, task paths and recurring usability issues
  • Present prioritized findings with practical design recommendations

Usability Testing specialists may assess onboarding, checkout, search, account creation, dashboards, support journeys and new product concepts. In Berlin, they may support local research sessions while coordinating remotely with distributed product, design and engineering teams.

When expertise helps

Companies bring in freelance expertise when a launch is approaching, a redesign creates uncertainty or internal teams lack neutral user evidence. Specialist support is also valuable when accessibility, localization or complex workflows create risks that standard analytics cannot explain.

  • Users abandon key journeys without an obvious technical error
  • Teams disagree about which interface problem matters most
  • A prototype needs validation before implementation
  • Product decisions rely on assumptions instead of observed behavior

What quality looks like

A strong professional separates participant preference from a genuine usability problem and avoids leading questions. They define success criteria before sessions begin, protect participant privacy and make findings traceable to observed evidence. Their deliverables are concise, prioritized and connected to decisions that product teams can act on.

Look for experience with the relevant audience, device context and product domain, plus clear examples of research plans and recommendations. The best collaboration combines careful facilitation with enough product, UX research and accessibility knowledge to explain both the problem and a credible path forward.

Frequently asked questions

Key details about Usability Testing, drawn from the questions we get asked most.

Usability Testing is used to see whether people can complete important tasks in a product or service without unnecessary confusion. It helps teams find problems in navigation, content, interaction patterns and accessibility before or after release.

Usability Testing observes people attempting realistic tasks, while interviews explore opinions and surveys collect structured responses from a wider group. Combining these methods can show both what users say and what they actually struggle to do.

A strong Usability Testing specialist usually understands UX research, interaction design, accessibility, information architecture and qualitative analysis. Skills in prototyping, product analytics and clear stakeholder communication are also valuable.

The right level of experience depends on the research scope, audience and product risk. A focused prototype review may need a specialist comfortable with session planning and synthesis, while regulated, multilingual or technically complex products call for deeper domain experience.

Yes. Usability Testing works well through video sessions, screen sharing and remote research tools, with findings shared in collaborative workspaces. A Berlin team can also combine remote work with local in-person sessions when physical context or language nuance matters.

Moderated Usability Testing is useful when a team needs to probe unexpected behavior, clarify reasoning or explore complex workflows. Unmoderated studies suit clearly defined tasks and allow participants to work in their own environment with less scheduling effort.

Review whether the specialist defines clear research questions, recruits relevant participants and distinguishes observations from assumptions. High-quality Usability Testing produces prioritized findings, supporting evidence and recommendations that map to specific product decisions.

A Usability Testing professional should clarify the product stage, target audience, research goals, participant access, devices, languages and delivery expectations. Agreeing on how findings will influence design or product decisions prevents a useful study from becoming a report with no clear owner.
