The magical moment
The best products have a magical moment, where it just feels right when you use it. It's not about having a fancy UI or a user friendly UX, it's about having that one core interaction that feels magical. I believe this feeling is what makes a product stick and self-market. The impression it gives should be the kind where you tell your friends about it without anyone asking you to.
With Relora, I constantly think about how I can get this magical moment just right for our users. The user taps one button and records a quick voice note about a person, and the app does the rest: structures the notes, gives reminders to reach back out, and suggests conversation starters. Ultimately, I want these notes to surface when they need them: when they receive a call, when they hop on a virtual meeting, and even when they run into someone on the street.
The standard a product should strive for is when the people who use it become the people who spread it, because they want to share the magical moment they experienced with others.
