About a Project

This project focused on building a separate internal application for the Imaginarium platform—the Admin Dashboard. This tool was created for internal stakeholders (e.g., operations, marketing, product leadership, and support teams) to manage user accounts, analyze platform activity, and monitor high-level business metrics.

While Imaginarium’s main app serves creative users, this dashboard was designed as a back-office control center for user segmentation, organizational oversight, subscription insights, and performance reporting.

Product Scope

  • Core Features:

    • Admin dashboard login and role-based access

    • Real-time user growth and engagement analytics

    • Download and activity time tracking

    • Gender and language segmentation

    • Organization-based user grouping

    • Filtering and exportable data views

Project Goal

Research & Discovery

  • Create an intuitive admin experience with role-based access

  • Enable team members to quickly locate and understand user behavior

  • Provide visibility into platform growth and performance

  • Surface real-time engagement trends to support decisions

  • Support investor-readiness with visual, shareable reports

  • Conducted internal stakeholder interviews (Ops, BizDev, PMs)

  • Reviewed admin flows in tools like Mixpanel, Segment, and Notion analytics

  • Audited metrics needed for board reporting and marketing segmentation

  • Identified gaps in data accessibility and navigation flow

UX Process

  1. Information Architecture:
    Designed the dashboard for modular expansion and logical hierarchy

  2. Wireframing:
    Low-fidelity mockups in Figma to test dashboard structure

  3. Design System Alignment:
    Used custom-built web design system with reusable chart, card, and data modules

  4. Data Visualization:
    Color-coded line graphs, bar charts, and donut charts for user clarity

  5. Filtering and Toggles:
    Built intuitive controls to segment views by timeframe, user type, and activit

📊 Outcome

  • 100% adoption by all internal teams

  • Used weekly for user behavior insight and executive updates

  • Informed decisions for subscription segmentation, support tickets, and product metrics

  • Reduced manual reporting efforts by 70%

Key Learnings

  • Internal tools must be just as elegant as user-facing ones to ensure adoption

  • Clarity, contrast, and data hierarchy are crucial in admin environments

  • Real-time dashboards reduce communication gaps across departments

This Admin Dashboard was not just a tool—it became the central nervous system for the entire Imaginarium organization.
