Target User Personas
Through our customer research, we collected both qualitative and quantitative data from surveys, interviews, and usability tests, which helped us identify patterns in user behavior and preferences. This analysis allowed us to segment our audience into four main personas, with the "Paralegal" being our primary focus. Each persona has clear traits that reflect their specific needs, goals, and challenges in their daily work. Insights into their focus on efficiency, interest in professional development, and preferred tools have guided us in adjusting our strategies and offerings to better meet the needs of this important segment of our user base.

Customer Journey Map & JTBD
Leveraging the insights gained from our extensive research, we developed a comprehensive customer journey map and articulated the Jobs To Be Done (JTBD) framework to better understand user interactions and motivations throughout their experience with our product. By mapping out each stage of the customer journey—awareness, consideration, purchase, and post-purchase—we identified key touchpoints and pain points, revealing how paralegals engage with our services at various moments.

Deeper Customer Insights
Through our research efforts, we gathered important insights and data that answered essential questions about law firms’ practices. By using surveys and interviews, we were able to learn about the tools and processes firms use to create medical record summaries, the number of attorneys in each firm, and who is primarily responsible for managing these summaries. This information helped us better understand the workflows of attorneys and their support staff, allowing us to identify opportunities for improvement in handling medical record documentation.

Pricing Strategy Options & Recommendations
Based on our research, we developed and tested three pricing strategies for consideration: a Tiered Monthly Page Limit, which allows customers to choose plans based on their expected usage for added flexibility; a Pay-As-You-Go Plan with Re-Ups, enabling users to pay only for the services they use and refill credits easily; and a Single Monthly Plan with Add-Ons, providing a straightforward subscription model that can be tailored with extra features. These strategies are informed by our analysis of competitors, ensuring we offer options that cater to diverse user preferences and budgets.
