Problem

Client Background

AmpleReads needed a productized reading platform with stronger engagement loops and improved subscription stickiness.

Critical Risk Area

The platform lacked high-frequency habit loops, reducing long-term learner retention.

  • Weak repeat usage patterns among new users
  • Limited progression signals in the reader experience
  • High cancellation in first subscription cycle

Solution

Delivery Outcome
