🧩 The Challenge

The problem isn't a lack of tools—it’s a lack of integration. High-growth businesses are currently forced to choose between rigid enterprise platforms that kill creativity or lightweight apps that break under the pressure of scale. This "complexity tax" stops local legends from becoming regional icons.

How do we design a CRM that feels as intuitive as a social feed but carries the weight of an institutional database?

🔧 The Approach

We moved away from the "one-size-fits-all" model. Naybr was architected on a modular framework that adapts in real-time. Whether it's a single flagship store managing high-value relationships or a commercial district managing 200+ vendors, the system scales horizontally—adding layers of analytics and automation only when the business is ready.

Core Design Principles

  • Simplicity first — zero learning curve, clean UX.
  • Scalability by design — modules unlock with growth.
  • Community-driven — built to connect local businesses under shared insights.
  • Accessibility — inclusive typography, high-contrast-friendly, responsive layouts.

🖥 Product Design & UX System

The UI is built on a Modular Block System, ensuring the dashboard remains clean even as data density increases.

  • Dashboard Overview — daily snapshot of sales, new customers, retention rate, and current campaigns.
  • Customer Management — clean card-based system for profiles, loyalty data, and visit history.
  • Outreach Module — built-in email + SMS templates for promotions and feedback loops.
  • Analytics Layer — simple charts and exportable reports, ready for Google Sheets or internal tools.

Visual Language: A muted off-white base UI provides a sophisticated, minimal canvas. Orange accents are used strategically to signal innovation and energy. The interface is anchored by Inter and Space Grotesk typography, supported by thin-line geometric icons to maintain a professional, high-end feel.

Vision Preview — Future Expansion Concepts

A forward-looking perspective of how Naybr scales into community, borough, and institutional infrastructure.

🌍 Extended Vision: Scaling Beyond Small Business

Naybr’s true power lies in its Institutional Lane. While it begins at the storefront level, its architecture is built for district-wide and city-level deployment.

By maintaining a unified data language, the same system tracking a café’s regulars can scale to power the economic-health dashboard of a local council or a commercial franchise network. It transforms a simple CRM into a vital piece of urban infrastructure.

Potential partners: local councils, government innovation teams, chambers of commerce, and business improvement districts.

Naybr CRM — Local to Borough-Wide Scalability

Built for small business, ready for borough-scale impact. Naybr CRM starts lightweight for local traders, cafés, and independents — but its modular architecture seamlessly scales to power engagement strategies for entire boroughs and districts.

Growth Pathway

Organic expansion without fragmentation or complexity.

Local

Individual businesses, local traders, micro-operators.

Regional

District networks, BIIDs, chambers, local clusters.

🚀 Outcome / What It Shows

Naybr CRM demonstrates Heno’s Digital Product capability — merging creative design with technical reasoning to produce usable, scalable software.

It’s more than a UI — it’s an ecosystem built around people, not processes. Clean, modular, and empathetic, Naybr reframes what business software can feel like when designed with community at its core.

Why it fits the Digital Product pillar:

  • UX / UI thinking — clear, accessible, modular design system.
  • Scalability — from café-level operations to council-wide infrastructure.
  • Storytelling — growth framed through community and local impact.
  • Technical narrative — product logic, modular architecture, and future vision.
  • Professional appeal — reads well for SaaS clients, institutional tenders, and product teams.
