1. Current Situation Analysis

• Late-stage UX involvement in AI tool development
• Reactive rather than proactive UX consulting
• Limited influence on core feature requirements
• Increased risk of misaligned solutions

2. Problems with Current Approach

• Higher development costs due to late-stage changes
• Increased time to market
• Reduced user adoption rates
• Risk of developing features that don't meet user needs

3. Proposed Solution: Early UX Integration

• UX team involvement from project inception
• Requirements gathering through user research
• Early prototype and concept validation
• Continuous feedback loop during development

4. Benefits and ROI

Cost Reduction
