User Research

Problem

Babies cry to express everything hunger, pain, tiredness, or discomfort.

But parents often struggle to understand what the cry means.

This communication gap leads to anxiety, confusion, and, worse delays in care.

Solution

Starting with a cry analyzer and smart health screening, our vision is to evolve into a full-stack, AI-powered platform that learns from every pattern to predict risks, enable early action, and support parents with confidence every day, every night.

04

Qualitative Research

We're not guessing what mothers want. We're learning directly from them.
Each message is a window into what real care looks like.

400+Community Parents
50+Queries every day
12+Active users daily
154+Waitlist
70+User Interviews

It's three in the morning and I don't know if this is normal. I don't want to wake a doctor. I just want someone to tell me.

Goals

  • Know whether this crying is normal, right now
  • See feeding, sleep and growth in one place
  • Reach a paediatrician without leaving the house

Frustrations

  • Every source contradicts the last one
  • Appointments take days; the panic takes minutes
  • Cannot tell hunger from pain from discomfort

Behaviours

  • Asks the WhatsApp community before she asks a doctor
  • Searches at night, one-handed, screen dimmed
  • Logs nothing unless logging takes seconds

What she needs from Pukaar.ai

  • A plain sentence first, the medical label second
  • Reasoning she can check, not a verdict
  • A visible way out: soothe, log, or consult

Composite persona, built from 70+ user interviews, a 400-parent community channel and the 50+ questions it receives every day.

Key User Flow

The 2 a.m. path cry to answer in under 90 seconds

This is the flow the whole product is judged on. Every other journey can afford a second attempt; this one cannot.

01

Sequencing decision

In grey, it was obvious that asking four questions before a parent can even start recording is homework while the baby screams. The questionnaire moved behind the capture.

Escalation is never hidden

Chat with QARA and the under-15-minute consult live on the report itself, not behind a menu, not one screen away.

12

Wireframe to UI

Structure before style the Cry Report

The most important screen in the product, at two fidelities. Same structure. Everything that changed, changed for a reason.

WireframeFinal UI
Final Cry Report screen: Needs Soothing, a reassuring sentence, AI based insights and Chat with QARA. Wireframe of the same Cry Report screen in grey. Drag to compare
What changed, and why
  • Reassurance moved above the actions

    A frightened parent cannot execute a list. The sentence that calms her has to land before the instructions do.

  • The category lost its prominence

    Needs Soothing is a label, not an answer. It was demoted so the plain-language explanation carries the screen.

  • Reasoning became its own block

    Why I think that earns a component. Explanation is what separates guidance from a confident guess.

  • Escalation is always visible

    Chat with QARA and the under-15-minute consult sit on the screen, not behind a menu.

Design Decisions

Four calls that shaped the product

Each one came out of the research, not out of taste. Each one is visible in the final screens.

One glance answers is this normal and who to call. QARA sits above the fold as the first action, and logged sleep and feeds turn into a read against age norms.

Thank you.

Pukaar.ai isn't just about decoding a cry it's about ending the not-knowing, at the hour when nobody else is awake.
