Problem Statement


The Business Challenge: As one of Brazil's largest insurers (USD $2B Annual Profit), the existing digital experience was causing a massive service failure due to outdated tools and a highly confusing, sensitive claims process. This friction resulted in a direct financial drain (high support tickets) and reputational risk in a highly regulated B2C environment.

The Service Design Thesis: Driving Trust and Efficiency


As a key contributor on the UX/UI Design team, I helped define and execute the service strategy to overhaul the entire experience across three key service pillars: Customer Acquisition (Quote Simulator), Internal Management (Dashboards), and Retention/Risk (Claims Flow). The core strategic thesis was that simplifying highly complex financial and legal processes for users would immediately drive customer trust and significantly reduce operational overhead across the service chain.

Service Discovery: Navigating Regulatory and Operational Constraints


1 - Cross-Functional Alignment: I initiated discovery by conducting in-depth workshops with high-risk departments (Legal, Claims, Sales) to deeply understand business rules, regulatory constraints, and operational friction points. This was crucial for validating the feasibility of digital solutions.

2 - Dual User Focus: My research cadence focused on two user groups: real end-customers (for the B2C acquisition funnel) and insurance brokers/internal teams (for the B2B dashboard and claims support).

3 - Mapping for Influence: Using Service Blueprinting and Customer Journey Mapping, I identified critical friction points across the omnichannel experience, which became the central reference point for design and business prioritization.

Outcome & Learning


Measurable Business Impact: The strategic overhaul delivered tangible ROI across the entire service experience:


  • Acquisition: The B2C Quote Simulator drove a 31% increase in qualified lead generation by making life insurance manageable and accessible for 3M+ users.


  • Risk/Retention: The redesign of the claims communication flow led to a 27% reduction in customer support tickets related to claims, significantly lowering operational costs.


  • Internal Efficiency: Management dashboards improved internal visibility and operational response time.


Learnings & Fintech Insight

Key Learning: Working in a regulated environment taught me that Design Strategy must start with Legal and Compliance constraints. My role became one of translating regulatory complexity into clear, empathetic user experiences. The biggest challenge was aligning highly segmented internal operations to deliver a truly unified, seamless omnichannel experience. This required strong Stakeholder Management and continuous collaboration to ensure the design vision was implemented consistently across different business units.
