Detailed Plan
Based on our extended experience of running IT services in the cloud in a secure and certified approach, we have delivered services onto the Cardano users for more than 4 months already and have learnt a lot on what are the needs of the NFT creators, consumers and collectors.
As Founders of NFTdot.io we have focused to deliver backend functionality most of the time and recently have started to improve customer journey by bringing onboard a professional UI/UX designer and a senior Frontend Developer.
NFTdot.io was the first to bring volume minting into the Cardano NFT space to the entire community in a proper self-service approach as we believe users need to have a smooth experience without intermediaries.
We also believe flexibility is important and tailoring user experience is also a key winning factor, hence us being the first to deliver onto the market different user experience paths in our platform:
-
beginner
-
advanced
-
professional
-
managed services
In terms of utility our platform will allow you to tokenize assets and digitize artwork, as well as giving our users the means to monetize those assets, all under an easy to use, powerful and globally affordable platform.

Now it is time to put all the learnt lessons to the test and deliver an even smoother experience to the non-crypto users and non-technical users.
We can achieve this by better understanding the customer journey for both artists, consumers and collectors and eliminating any complexity in order to unleash value co-creation in this ecosystem.
How do we achieve this? Simple. We transform NFT journey into a journey similar to all the other journey people are carried when browsing web or buy a pair of shoes online, all within the safety of the Cardano blockchain.
3 areas we discovered to be important for our less tech-savvy users:
- easy and familiar user interface - we have invested already in professional UI/UX and Frontend capabilities;
- direct access to fiat payment options - on the roadmap as an addition to the customer journey;
- integrations & partnerships for certain features that won't be developed internally.
