About Tale of Tails

Tale of Tails is an Indian pet-tech company that acts as a comprehensive platform to simplify pet care. It connects pet owners with verified service providers like walkers, vets, groomers, and trainers, while also offering features to digitally store and manage important pet records, walking and health information through its app. The company's goal is to make pet parenting easier by providing tools and services to help manage pet health and well-being in one central location. 

THE BRANDING

One stop for all your pet needs

FROM PET PARENTS, FOR PET PARENTS

Agile like a cat, intuitive like a dog!

Over the last one year, I collaborated closely with developers in a highly agile environment, ensuring design and functionality worked seamlessly together. My focus was on crafting user-centered solutions that balanced creativity with technical feasibility. Through iterative feedback and rapid prototyping, we delivered impactful features efficiently. These solutions were designed to enrich the experiences of the animal lover community, making meaningful connections possible.

THE DESIGN PROCESS

From the field to the frames

The design process of the Tale of Tails app started with identifying real-world problems faced by pet parents, especially concerned with pet health and fitness, to ideating solutions that tackle them best. With multiple features that range from simple forms to store crucial health information in "TailsLocker", to highly engaging, intuitive and colorful screens packed with microflows in features like "Walk Tracker" and "PawSocial", Tale of Tails implements a large styleguide to maintain consistency and a seamless experience across iOS and Android, as users transition from one flow to another.

Micro-animations to add to the fun

The key is making sure the users really feel like they are in the pet space, while maintaining the fun factor. That's where mascots and micro-animations come in! Toto and Theo are inspired from Indie dogs and cats, and show up in a variety of poses and animations to add to the fun!

A quirky take on the writing

At Tale of Tails, I crafted a fun and quirky tone that keeps pet parents engaged, while ensuring they remain mindful of their pets’ health and well-being. I gained experience in curating a wide range of notifications, in-app messages, and written UX content in a mix of languages- English and Hindi.

LEARNINGS

When passion creates impact

What started out a passion project with tremendous research, got me into the amazing team at Tale of Tails. Here's what I learned over the past year:

  1. Importance to time and adaptability with deliverables.

  2. Finding the right balance between user needs and business goals.

  3. Design should compliment, not overpower. Animations and aesthetics should contribute to a good experience, but should be technically feasible too.

  4. Domain knowledge and on-field research makes greater impact.
