Overview

Chegg, a leading higher-education study tool with millions of subscribers, provides resources like homework help, exam preparation, and writing tools. With the rise of generative AI in 2023, Chegg revamped its core Q&A product to leverage AI for enhanced solution generation and personalized study help.

One key challenge in the AI-powered conversational learning experience was the low engagement in asking follow-up questions. As the sole UX designer for this project, I introduced a new feature that successfully encouraged students to ask follow-ups, resulting in measurable improvements in engagement.

My Contributions

  • Designed the Dynamic Follow-Up Suggestion feature, resulting in a 4.67% increase in number of subscribers who ask follow-up questions.
  • Significantly improved the information hierarchy of the AI-powered chat experience to accommodate new functionalities seamlessly. Orchestrated user interviews and usability testing to inform design decisions.
  • Developed interactive prototypes to effectively showcase the experience and communicate its value to cross-functional stakeholders.
