Maphood
Product design, UI/UX and visual communication in an existing live product ecosystem, alongside its founder and engineering team.
PRODUCT DESIGNER · AI PRODUCT BUILDER
I’m Ram, a Product Designer and AI Product Builder. I design practical digital products and AI-assisted experiences, combining product thinking, UI/UX, interaction and visual craft.
Currently working across product/UI/UX and visual communication at Maphood, alongside independent AI-product work.
01 / SELECTED WORK
Real company product work, an independently built AI-product project and a visual-design foundation. Unfinished evidence is labelled clearly.
Product design, UI/UX and visual communication in an existing live product ecosystem, alongside its founder and engineering team.

An AI-assisted sales workflow exploring uncertainty, human escalation and controlled automation through a working portfolio demo.
01 / COMPANY PRODUCT · ONGOING
Designing within a live product ecosystem.
Maphood is a location-aware social product built around communities called Hoods, visual posts, reactions and place exploration. My work takes place within an existing company product alongside its founder and engineering team.
My contributions span social and campaign graphics, print and promotional collateral, icons and visual assets, selected app and web interface work, and product-design discussions.
The structured UI/UX work is ongoing. This case study will document specific contributions and distinguish existing product behavior from proposed changes and verified implementation.
VISUAL COMMUNICATION
Social, campaign, print and icon work supporting Maphood’s visual identity. A curated selection will show the brief, my contribution and the final artwork.
Published platform covers and a printed 2 × 2 inch handout, presented as separate visual-communication projects.
View the visual workThe fuller case study will follow one focused journey. These sections will be added as their content and evidence are reviewed.
Annotated current-product screens and flows, with existing company design clearly credited.
One user task, its starting experience, design questions and constraints.
Traceable findings, alternatives and rationale, with open questions kept visible.
Current and proposed comparisons, components and a reviewed interactive prototype.
Team feedback, approvals, handoff and implementation evidence where available.
Runtime checks and supported outcomes. No impact metrics are claimed at this stage.
The live company product and a proposed design are different stages. Released changes will be shown only after their implementation is verified.
02 / INDEPENDENT AI PRODUCT · WORKING PORTFOLIO DEMO
A sensitive request should pause for a human decision.
THE PRODUCT DECISION
I conceived Riya as a specialized assistant for small businesses, beginning with jewellery sales. The current portfolio demo demonstrates one narrow workflow: a sample discount request is paused, a team member reviews its context, saves a sample reply and then resolves it.
Identify a request that needs a person.
Put the request and reason together.
Require a saved reply before resolution.
The portfolio demo stores its sample state in the browser. It does not send a message to a customer or run a connected production AI service. Independent user validation and commercial outcomes remain pending.

My contribution: sole human creator and product lead for the concept, research, scope and UX direction, with AI and software tools assisting planning and implementation. An expanded interaction case study covering states, failure handling and escalation behaviour is in development.
03 / SELECTED VISUAL WORK
The foundation underneath my interface work.
MAPHOOD / VISUAL COMMUNICATION
A social-cover system for Maphood, using bold typography, orange and black, and map-inspired routes and pins to communicate its real-life discovery theme across platform formats.
MAPHOOD / PRINT COLLATERAL
A compact, two-sided handout for offline promotion. The front introduces Maphood’s “social map of real life” message; the reverse presents the app-download prompt, store badges and QR code.
Final artwork shown. Printed at 2 × 2 inches; images are enlarged here for viewing.
Further branding, campaign, presentation and icon selections will be added as final artifacts and project context are reviewed.
02 / ABOUT
I’m Ram Mishra, a Product Designer and AI Product Builder based in Jaipur. My background began in graphic and visual design and expanded into UI/UX, interaction design, product thinking and AI-assisted product building.
That progression gives me a combination of visual craft and product reasoning: I care about how an interface looks, how it behaves, why it exists and whether it solves the intended problem.
I’m particularly interested in practical digital products and teams where design works closely with product and engineering.

Visual communication plus an increasing product/UI/UX contribution around the live product: interface analysis and design, interaction thinking, product discussion, social collateral, icons and collaboration with the founder and engineering team.
Concept, research, product scope and UX direction for an AI-assisted human-review workflow. A working portfolio demo exists; independent user validation and commercial outcomes remain open.
Graphic design, branding, campaign collateral, presentations and selected digital work. A focused portfolio selection is currently being curated.
