🚀 In delivery

  • We heard that it's hard to understand what the search feature on Sciety can be used for. As such, we've improved the UX to communicate the ordering of items on Sciety; lists have a consistent order and we  have added messaging to the search page to communicate the order of results and what is being returned.
Search results show the preprint servers, ordering and links below to how to use advanced search
  • We also spent some time fixing user journeys for login/signup, to help orient people on Sciety.

🕵️ In discovery

  • As the majority of the Sciety team were at the eLife office this week, we spend some time carrying out  'hallway testing', getting people to try out the signup/login journeys in Sciety.
  • We also asked people to try out  Sciety Labs were we are experimenting with out AI generated images, using GPT-3 to provide a visual indication of lists and articles.
