Cluzy Homepage Case Study

Student @ Northeastern | Human-Centered Informatics

A case study for an event check-in app that prioritizes user data privacy and rewards users fairly for the data they choose to share.

Goal

  • Determine the best way to attract users to continue logging into Cluzy​

  • Determine how to present rewards in Cluzy for attending events and recurring engagement​

  • Investigate young adult eventgoers' interests and engagement with the following topics: ​

    • Rewards for providing psychographic data​

    • Maintaining online accounts/social networks​

    • Searching for events​



Research Methodology​

  • User Interviews via Zoom

  • Approximately 1-hour sessions:

  • Series of Questions

    • Two card-sorting activities

    • Cluzy demo and AgileBrain test

  • Participants frequented social events such as concerts, sportingevents or other social outings found through social media orevent-finding platforms


Card Sorting

  • ​​Each participant was asked to sort items into different categories

    • Tasks (most to least):

      • Time-Consuming

      • Difficult/Challenging

      • Annoying/Tedious

      • Boring

      • Forgettable

    • Rewards (highest to lowest):

      • Value

      • Interest

Main Focus in designs​

  • Provide visual progress indicators for point totals ​

  • Display the value of points ​

  • Inform users about the value of Cluzy+ through a free trial ​

  • Positively reinforce daily check-ins by offering valuable (and possibly hidden) rewards ​

  • Connect users with similar profiles and allow them to interact with user-generated content​

  • Consolidate event-finding and check-in history in-app​

  • User Privacy Settings

Other Considerations but not used:​

  • Prompt user engagement through texts and push notifications ​

  • Limit survey length (<5 questions) to reduce user drop-off rate ​

  • Make tasks enjoyable (like mini games)
