Signable | B2B SaaS

Scaling a SaaS product for growth and enterprise trust.

As Signable continued to scale, the platform needed to evolve into a more cohesive and trustworthy SaaS experience capable of supporting long-term growth.

Working across product, marketing and engineering, I helped improve usability, reduce friction and introduce greater consistency across the customer journey.

The Challenge

As the business grew, the platform was beginning to show signs of fragmentation across both product and customer experience.

Key challenges included:

  • inconsistent workflows and interface patterns

  • increasing UX debt as new functionality was introduced

  • balancing usability improvements with legacy constraints

  • improving trust and perceived product maturity

  • creating a more scalable and cohesive experience across the customer journey

The challenge was not simply modernising the interface, but evolving the product into a more operationally effective and enterprise-ready platform without disrupting existing users.

My role

Head of Brand & Design, responsible for:

  • product experience direction

  • UX/UI evolution

  • onboarding and usability improvements

  • platform consistency

  • product and marketing alignment

  • design systems thinking

  • collaborating with engineering and stakeholders

Key Product Decisions

Simplifying onboarding

The onboarding journey was streamlined to reduce cognitive load and help users reach value more quickly.

Designing for trust

Consistency across product and marketing touchpoints was prioritised to create a more cohesive and trustworthy experience throughout the customer journey.

Incremental evolution over redesign

Rather than redesigning the platform entirely, improvements were introduced progressively to minimise disruption, preserve familiarity and reduce technical risk.

Improving scalability through consistency

Reusable patterns and more consistent interaction models helped reduce friction as the platform continued to evolve.

Scaling Support Through Self-Service

Customer service was a defining strength, but increasing demand risked limiting scalability.

I introduced improvements to self-service support, including:

  • Embedded help within key product journeys

  • Improved guidance around common user tasks

  • Better surfacing of support content

Improving Trial Adoption and Conversion

While sign-ups were strong, deeper engagement and conversion were not being effectively measured or optimised.

I shifted the focus toward meaningful activation:

  • Defined key activation metrics beyond sign-up

  • Identified drop-offs in onboarding and early usage

  • Iterated onboarding flows to accelerate time-to-value

Designing For Scale

As Signable matured, consistency and scalability became increasingly important across the platform experience.

The focus shifted beyond isolated interfaces toward creating a more cohesive product ecosystem — improving usability, reducing friction and introducing reusable patterns that could support future growth more effectively.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Worked closely with engineering, marketing and internal stakeholders to evolve the platform incrementally while balancing customer needs, technical constraints and commercial priorities.

 
 
 
 

Optimising the Core Product Experience

The core product experience was simple but contained inefficiencies that became more apparent at scale.

I refined key journeys to:

  • Reduce friction in document upload and sending

  • Improve clarity and usability across interactions

  • Streamline repeat actions for returning users


Outcome

Through a series of iterative improvements across brand, product, and experience, Signable was better positioned to scale:

  • A more aligned and effective brand presence

  • Reduced pressure on customer support

  • Increased visibility and performance across the conversion funnel

  • A faster, more intuitive core product experience

Reflection

This work reinforced the importance of taking a holistic view of product design, where brand, experience, and performance are deeply interconnected. By balancing user needs with business goals, I was able to help evolve the product meaningfully while preserving the simplicity and personality that made it successful.
