Details

The primary objective of this project is to explore and develop key product use cases for the Moose mobile app, focusing on product design, market feasibility, and user experience. By analyzing real-world customer needs and leveraging AI-driven solutions, the project aims to define and prototype three core functionalities: 1) Hydro One Project Management Tool, 2) Operations & Maintenance with inverter error diagnostics, and 3) AI-powered Bill Analysis for electricity usage insights. One student will take on a product management role, conducting market research and defining requirements, while four students will focus on UI/UX design and technical development, ensuring the app is intuitive, functional, and scalable.

To achieve this goal, participants will engage in a series of structured tasks, including user research, competitive analysis, product requirement definition, UI/UX prototyping, and AI feasibility assessment. Deliverables will include a Market Analysis Report, Customer Research Report, Product Requirements Document (PRD), UX/UI Mockups & Prototypes, an AI Feasibility Report, and a Final Presentation summarizing research insights and product design recommendations. These outputs will provide valuable insights into the market potential, user experience, and technical feasibility of each use case, ensuring that the Moose app evolves into a more robust and user-centric product.

Deliverables

Participants are expected to complete a Market Analysis Report to assess industry trends and competitive solutions, a Customer Research Report summarizing user interviews and pain points, and a Product Requirements Document (PRD) outlining functional and non-functional specifications for each use case. They will also develop high-fidelity UI/UX mockups and interactive prototypes for the three product features: Hydro One Project Management Tool, Operations & Maintenance diagnostics, and AI-powered Bill Analysis. Additionally, an AI Feasibility & Integration Report will explore automation opportunities within the app. The final deliverable will be a comprehensive presentation summarizing the research, designs, and strategic recommendations, ensuring the Moose app is well-positioned for future development and market adoption.
