Nexa

Nexa is an AI-powered marketplace designed to connect three key groups within the emerging AIGC ecosystem: users, developers, and investors. While the number of AI products continues to grow rapidly, users struggle to identify trustworthy tools, developers lack effective channels for exposure and feedback, and investors face fragmented data when evaluating early-stage opportunities.
To address these challenges, I designed a three-sided platform that transforms a traditional AI tool directory into an interconnected product discovery, validation, and investment ecosystem. Users can search for tools through natural-language queries, receive personalized recommendations, compare products based on their specific goals, and access transparent pricing, reviews, and onboarding guidance. Developers can upload product information through an AI-assisted workflow, automatically generate standardized descriptions and tags, collect user feedback, monitor performance, and present investor-specific business data. Investors can discover and evaluate emerging AI products through standardized metrics, team information, market signals, risk indicators, and AI-generated project analysis.
The design process included stakeholder mapping, competitive analysis, surveys across all three user groups, information architecture, user flows, low- and high-fidelity prototyping, and iterative interface refinement. Research findings revealed recurring issues around information overload, inconsistent product data, limited differentiation, and inefficient decision-making.
Nexa demonstrates how AI agents can support—not replace—critical user decisions by organizing fragmented information, reducing repetitive work, and delivering role-specific insights. The resulting platform creates a continuous value loop: users generate behavioral and feedback data, developers use those insights to improve their products, and investors use verified market signals to identify stronger opportunities.
