Context: A product that scaled faster than it could simplify.

Stripe Atlas helps founders incorporate companies remotely. After six years of growth, the dashboard had become a patchwork of features — powerful, but overwhelming for first-time founders navigating tax filings, equity, and compliance.

The Before. — LEGACY DASHBOARD AUDIT 1 Unclear hierarchy 2 No progressive disclosure 3 Repetitive form patterns 4 No clear status of action 5 Mobile completely broken
— Chapter 02

The problem in numbers.

Internal data revealed that 47% of founders dropped off during the activation flow. Support tickets were dominated by confusion over next steps.

— DROP-OFF FUNNEL Sign up · 100% Profile · 73% Filing · 54% Payment · 35% Done · 19% 81% NEVER COMPLETE
— TOP SUPPORT TICKETS "I'm lost." — 2,341 tickets "What's next?" — 1,889 tickets "It crashed." — 1,204 tickets
— Chapter 03 04 slides

The process: from chaos to clarity.

We ran 23 user interviews, mapped 4 jobs-to-be-done, prototyped 11 flows, and ran 3 rounds of usability testing before committing to a direction.

SLIDE 01 — RESEARCH 23 founders. 11 countries. 1 insight. "I don't need more features. I need a path." — EMILY, FOUNDER · BERLIN
SLIDE 02 — JOURNEY MAP Mapping the founder journey. 01 Discover 02 Configure 03 File 04 Activate ★ Grow 5 STAGES · 23 TOUCHPOINTS · 4 JOBS-TO-BE-DONE
SLIDE 03 — WIREFRAMES Eleven flows. Three rounds.
SLIDE 04 — DESIGN PRINCIPLES One step, one decision. — Progressive disclosure over feature parity — Status before action — Plain English over jargon — Always show what's next — Mobile is a first-class citizen
01 / 04
— Chapter 04

The solution: a dashboard that guides, not overwhelms.

A new status-led architecture, a unified component system, and a "next best action" engine that surfaces what matters now.
