Sharing a Case Study Where Data-Driven Design Succeeded

How do you turn user insights into real results? In this episode of xploreUX Cast, host Obru-ke shares a hands-on case study from Airbnb—showing how smart, data-driven design can transform a business.

• How Airbnb identified their biggest friction point using real user data

• The simple design change that led to a surge in bookings

• How continuous optimisation (not one-off fixes) keeps a product relevant

• Why listening to user feedback is key to building trust and long-term growth

Whether you run a startup, lead a product team, or simply want to make better design decisions, this episode breaks down what “data-driven design” looks like in practice.
