Learn product judgment, not theory

Learn UX from the apps millions actually use.

FOLIO turns recorded user-testing sessions of real fintech apps into hands-on practice. You diagnose real flows, defend your thinking, and build the judgment that gets you hired, on the products people use every day in emerging markets.

Built for aspiring PMs, designers, and founders. No experience required to start.

FOLIO · Coaching Mode
The AdvisorHere's a real OPay sign-up session. 20 users, recorded. Before I show you the data, where do you think they slowed down, and why?
YouThe OTP screen, people wait on the SMS code.
The AdvisorGood instinct, but that's one guess. What's the evidence in the recording that points there, and what would you check before committing to it?
Why it matters

In an AI era, building is cheap. Judgment is the scarce skill.

Anyone can ship a screen now. What separates a great product person is knowing what good looks like and why, the judgment to read real user behavior and make the right call. That's the thing FOLIO trains.

Theory doesn't transfer

Reading about Hick's Law or Fitts's Law won't teach you to spot them in a live flow. You learn judgment by practicing on real products, not memorizing principles.

Screenshots aren't enough

Inspiration galleries show you what an app looks like. They never show you whether the flow works, where users stall, or why one design beats another.

Your portfolio looks like everyone's

"I redesigned a fictional app" is what every applicant submits. Evidence-based teardowns of real apps are what make a hiring manager stop.

So you practice on the real thing

FOLIO gives you recorded sessions of real users on real apps, and an AI coach that makes you diagnose, defend, and refine, until the judgment is yours.

How Coaching Mode works

It coaches you. It doesn't do the work for you.

Most AI tools hand you an answer. Coaching Mode makes you think first, then sharpens you, the way a great mentor would.

1

See real evidence

You get a real recorded session of users moving through an actual app flow: the timings, the taps, where they hesitated.

2

Diagnose first

You identify the problem and propose a fix in your own words, before any answer is revealed.

3

Get critiqued

The Advisor pushes back: grounding your claims in the evidence and turning vague ideas into buildable ones.

4

Build judgment

Only after you commit do you see how thousands of real users actually scored it, a check on your thinking, not a shortcut.

What you practice

Hands-on reps on flows that actually shipped.

Visual exercises

Rebuild and critique real flows

Work directly on the screens real users struggled with.

  • Rebuild an onboarding flow as a wireframe, then defend your choices
  • Place the missing actions on a dashboard by hierarchy
  • Match unbranded flows to their real friction data, predict, then reveal
Principles, applied

Learn the laws by spotting them live

Not flashcards, real apps honoring or breaking each principle.

  • Find where an app respects or violates a core UX law, with the evidence
  • Judge whether a pattern actually helped users or just looked clean
  • Back every call with behavior from the recorded sessions
