Peoplelogic – UX Redesign for an AI Performance Platform Used by 1,200+ Organizations
3 min readingApr 2, 2026
Overview
In short: In about three months, Spaceberry audited and redesigned Peoplelogic — an AI-powered performance and feedback platform trusted by 1,200+ organizations — with drill-down dashboards, AI explanations and a unified design system; the product holds a 4.8 average rating across G2 and Capterra, and a featured customer reports 67% of managers running regular 1:1s.
Peoplelogic is an AI-powered platform designed for managers and HR teams to run performance reviews, collect continuous feedback, and analyze team engagement. The product helps companies better understand employee dynamics, improve retention, and build healthier, more productive teams. As the platform evolved functionally, its interface became overloaded and outdated. Despite strong AI capabilities, users struggled to understand metrics, navigate dashboards, and clearly see the value behind the data. The client approached us to rethink the user experience, modernize the interface, and turn complex analytics into a clear, intuitive, and scalable product.

Challenge
Peoplelogic faced several UX and UI challenges that directly affected product adoption and daily usage:
- The interface was visually overloaded and hard to scan, especially for first-time users
- Key metrics lacked context and explanations, making analytics feel abstract and hard to interpret
- Weak visual hierarchy made it difficult to identify priorities and next actions
- The absence of a unified design system caused inconsistencies across modules and slowed down product scaling
The main challenge was not only to refresh the UI visually, but to translate AI insights into clear, actionable understanding for managers and HR professionals.
Our Approach
We structured the redesign into clear, product-focused phases.
1. Research & Analysis
- UX audit of existing dashboards and flows
- Analysis of user pain points in analytics interpretation
- Identification of friction in onboarding and daily workflows
- Defining UX principles focused on clarity, hierarchy, and guidance
2. UX Strategy & Information Architecture
- Reworked information hierarchy for dashboards and metrics
- Defined clearer user paths for managers and HR roles
- Introduced contextual guidance instead of static data blocks
3. Analytics & AI Visualization
One of the core redesign goals was to make AI insights understandable.
- Redesigned key metrics (e.g. StayFactor) from static widgets into modular, multi-level views. Key Improvements:
- Clearer engagement state (Engaged / Neutral / Disengaged)
- Contextual weekly trend visualization
- Reduced cognitive load for faster decisions
- Introduced drill-down analytics:
- Overview
- Team level
- Expanded insights
- Individual member view
- Added AI-powered explanations that clarify why changes happen (e.g. reduced interactions, engagement drops)
4. UI Redesign & Design System
- Modernized visual language with cleaner layouts and spacing
- Built a unified component-based UI kit
- Defined typography, color system, and iconography
- Created reusable patterns for dashboards, tables, charts, and AI hints
The new design system ensured consistency across all modules and made future product scaling faster and more predictable.
5. Onboarding & Contextual Navigation
- Introduced contextual onboarding for new users
- Added AI-driven hints and guidance within key screens
- Implemented clearer navigation logic to reduce cognitive load
- Helped users understand “what to do next” at every stage
