Decidi for ux/ui designers
Survive the design crit before it’s in front of real users.
Put the flow in front of a senior critic, an accessibility advocate and a confused first-time user — so the work you present is the work that already held up.
- Have a senior design critic shred the flow the way the toughest crit would — before the real review.
- Get an accessibility advocate to flag the contrast, focus order and screen-reader trap you can’t see.
- Stress-test the empty, loading and error states a portfolio shot always skips.
- Pressure-test the flow against a confused first-time user, not the one who already knows where to tap.
- Check brand and pattern consistency so the design system doesn’t quietly fork.
- Surface the usability cliff between "looks great in Figma" and "works on a phone in sunlight".
- The end-to-end flow — where a real user gets lost
- Accessibility — contrast, focus order, screen-reader behaviour
- Empty, loading, error and edge states
- Brand and design-system consistency
- The first-run experience vs. the expert path
- What a senior design critic would tear apart
Say your checkout redesign ships to all users Monday. Usability sessions went well — five participants, all recruited from your existing user base — and the one flow nobody tested is what happens when a saved card fails mid-purchase.
The UX Researcher opens by interrogating the research itself: five existing users cannot represent the first-time buyer the redesign most affects, and the council reads the flows cold, the way a stranger does. The Accessibility Advocate sweeps the states the sessions never reached — error, offline, screen-reader order through the new form — and the End-User Advocate walks the failed-payment path step by step, because that is where trust dies and support tickets are born. The Devil’s Advocate argues for what should not ship Monday, and the Brand Strategist checks that the new flow still feels like your product rather than the framework it was built with. You get a P0–P3 list with the three fixes that gate the launch, and the explicit list of what is already right and should be left alone.
