Overview

We turned one flat dataset into five role-specific perspectives for Ceo, Cfo, Cto, Coo, and Cmo, giving every leader a clearer view of
what matters to them.

The challenge

ForgeLens started as a basic interface: data attachment and a chat window. It could hold a conversation and reference uploaded files, but it had no structure around who was asking. A CFO and a CTO got the same generic chat and answers, with no sense of which decisions mattered to their role. The redesign needed to turn that flat interface into a role-aware product without losing the conversational core that already worked.

Result

A role-aware product now turns one trusted company dataset into focused guidance for five executive perspectives.

Before → after

ForgeLens began as a flat chat interface with data attachment but no sense of role or priority. The redesign kept its conversational core, including file citations, inline tables and charts, and suggested next moves, then wrapped it in a role-based structure so the same data means something different depending on who is asking.

Information architecture

The product was reorganised around the decisions each role makes, with a clear path from overview to evidence to action. A sidebar switch reprioritizes the entire dashboard: a CFO sees runway and burn, a CTO sees deployment velocity and incident debt, and a CEO sees narrative and people, all from the same data.

Design system

Reusable cards, filters, tables, status patterns, and data-visualisation rules keep dense screens consistent across all five roles.

Key screens

Core dashboards surface priorities first and keep supporting data one level deeper. The advisor remembers company history, cites the exact source behind a claim, embeds tables and charts inline, and suggests the next three useful moves.
