The Petmi Case Study
A Strategic Re-design for Digital Product Resilience and Market Leadership
The Challenge: A Platform Under Strain
Despite a strong start with over 7,000 users, Petmi faced critical performance deficiencies. The application's infrastructure could not support its growing community, leading to a cascade of issues that threatened its viability.
"Slow and Clunky" Performance
Fundamental inefficiencies in the app's architecture led to prolonged loading times and a frustrating, unintuitive user experience, undermining its core purpose.
User Dissatisfaction Index
The poor performance had a direct and severe impact on user retention and public perception, creating a damaging feedback loop.
Eroding Brand Reputation
Users were actively uninstalling the app and leaving negative reviews in public forums, severely damaging brand credibility and deterring new user acquisition.
The Solution: A Strategic Re-design
To address these systemic issues, Petmi partnered with Intellectual Apps Ltd. for a comprehensive re-design. The initiative moved beyond superficial patches to implement a robust, scalable, and user-centric platform built for long-term success.

Review Sentiment Analysis: Before vs. After
The re-design led to a dramatic reversal in public feedback, turning a stream of negative reviews into positive endorsements.
An App "Loved By Users"
