Intro

fwdDeploy sells post-sale revenue engineering — a service most buyers have never heard named. I designed and built the website end-to-end, and used AI to move from research to a live Framer build faster than the brief expected.

UX & Design Approach

fwdDeploy turns post-sale chaos into systems. I designed and built its website end-to-end to do the same thing — take an unfamiliar category and make it feel structured, credible and inevitable. Research and IA first, AI to compress the slow parts, then a hand-built Framer site.

Brand System Into One

Indigo, Total Restraint.

The first drafts looked like every other SaaS startup — and a wary buyer reads "startup" as "risk." I rebuilt around a single indigo, a near-mono palette and Geist Mono on every label, so the brand reads as engineered, not marketed.

Faster To Production

Using AI to compress research synthesis, IA drafting, copy and prototype variations cut my design-decision time by roughly 60% — so the effort went into judgement, not busywork.

AI In The Workflow

Faster Decisions


AI didn't design the site — I did. It removed the friction around the decisions, so I could explore more options and still ship.

The Tool Directory brain

The Tool Directory isn't a list — it's a relational system. Each tool is one CMS entry whose fields drive the page, the filters and what shows up next, automatically.

Advanced CMS, with logic

If category = "Success"

The tool inherits CS Ops styling and surfaces inside the Customer Success solution page.

If user filters by pricing + ops

Linked references resolve matching tools and rank related entries on each detail page.

On new tool added

Detail page, breadcrumb and "related tools" generate from one template — zero manual layout.
