Interaction design and product management

A current-state review of Segredos da Floresta, separated into the experience decision and the product decision.

Interaction Design

Current assessment

The directory-to-detail pattern gives films, plants, photographs, uses, preparation guidance, and precautions a repeatable structure. Discovery is limited when users arrive with scientific, Portuguese, or local names.

Next interaction-design decision

Add synonym-aware search and filters for use, habitat, and safety, while making health precautions visually persistent.

Product Management

Product job

Preserve and disseminate São Toméan environmental and medicinal-plant knowledge through structured educational content.

North-star metric

Verified knowledge records meaningfully used in education, conservation, or community programmes.

Next product-management decision

Establish governance for source, reviewer, community permission, language variants, confidence, and safety before expanding the knowledge base.
