A fintech SaaS MVP translating a broad accounting specification into understandable workflows for SMBs.
Aurus Books was designed as an accounting and bookkeeping product for small and medium-sized businesses. Mahad rebuilt the information architecture after receiving the complete 50-page requirements document, then designed connected workflows for invoicing, expenses, clients, vendors, time tracking, CRM, reporting and a client dashboard. Competitive analysis informed familiar interaction patterns, but the product remained an MVP design and did not enter production.
Translating ambiguous multi-stakeholder requirements into deterministic, verifiable software under strict latency, cost, and usability boundaries.
Rebuild the product structure after discovering the initial requirements were outdated.
Use familiar accounting patterns where they reduced learning effort.
Organize features into task-oriented modules rather than mirroring the requirements document.
State clearly that the product did not progress beyond MVP design.
