“ Applying this course to my onboarding resulted in a 225% lift in conversion.”
One of the best decisions I made last year was to spend my learning budget on this course.
In short, this course is simply amazing (just like all the case studies they made). And I believe that in today’s world, where AI is advancing rapidly, understanding human psychology and how people use products has become even more critical.
What I loved most about the course was how it took complicated psychological patterns and broke them down into real-life scenarios with easy-to-understand language. The course also provided lots of practical exercises and homework where you can practice those psychological patterns in your own design/product.
Thanks to the course, I was able to apply one of the theories to the onboarding process of an app I created, resulting in an increase in the conversion rate from 11% to 24.7%.
If you’re looking to deepen your understanding of human psychology and product design, I highly recommend this course.

Instructors
We show you our best product psychology frameworks.
👋 Hey. Dan and Louis-Xavier here. In short, we:
- 👥 spent 12 years each at the intersection of tech & psychology
- 📈 cofounded and scaled startups from 0 to 10M$+/year
- 🌎 created a movement that helps 3,000+ companies in 147 countries create meaningful (and ethical) experiences
We created this course to help people like you use psychology (ethically!) to build better products, sharpen your skills, delight your customers and help companies scale faster.
You’ve seen what we do in our case studies. Now it’s time for you to have the exact knowledge to do the same for your product.
This program is NOT for you if…
- You want to use psychology to create dark patterns & unethical products. If that’s your case, you can close this tab and unsubscribe from our list right now. We have no interest in helping that kind of product reach more people.
- You want to rely on your gut feeling & opinion more than actual scientific principles. We focus on the human brain, not our ego.
- You care more about ‘hitting your KPIs’ than about understanding your customers. This framework focuses on genuinely helping your users to become successful. That’s the only sustainable way to improve your metrics.
- You care more about the latest design trends than you care about solving the right problems for your users. We focus on user empathy, not just shiny pixels.
- You’re looking for “overnight” success. This course will definitely help you build products people love only if you put in the work.
This program is FOR YOU if…
- You’re a designer, product manager, marketer, growth practitioner, user researcher or consultant who cares about providing value to your users, or you’re a team manager who wants to level up their team.
- You create digital experiences. While this program could help any company, our lessons are designed for digital products and online experiences:
- SaaS, mobile, B2B, B2C, Gaming, e‑commerce, banking, insurance, etc.
- You have a strong bias toward action and want real results. You like to implement what you learn instead of just reading theory. With practice, you’ll become faster at finding gaps and more confident in the solutions you create.
- You’re looking for a practical & applicable system to create better experiences using the same psychological frameworks we use in our case studies.
- You want timeless learnings & assets that’ll help you solve complex problems in your daily work long after you finish the course.
- You want to add “psychology” to your toolbox, to become the go-to “psychology person” in your company, or just stand out as a potential candidate for your next job.
- You like our case studies. You want to learn in the same engaging format we use but more in-depth and with a structured approach.
