The Opportunity

Align is a desktop collaboration tool inspired during a pandemic-era capstone project, designed to address core pain points of remote, cross-functional teams. The platform focuses on common remote collaboration challenges such as time-zone fragmentation, limited progress visibility, and reduced team alignment and morale.

Shaped through close collaboration among 5 product designers, Align brings together real-time project progress tracking, task ownership, and meeting coordination in a single experience, while introducing human-centred features such as contextual project support and lightweight team 'pulse' check-ins to maintain momentum and promote engagement across distributed team environments.
