LiveOpen product

The Flex flexible space discovery platform

Problem

Flexible space inventory is only useful if people can find a place that matches how they actually want to stay - not just a filter state.

What I owned

  • Discovery and filtering
  • LLM-powered search and recommendations

Engineering challenge

Use language models for recommendation without making search feel opaque or slow on a mobile-first surface.

Context

The Flex is a flexible-space discovery product. I built the mobile-first interface and the LLM-powered search that produces personalised recommendations.

Outcome

A mobile-first discovery product where search can be asked in language, not only in filters.
