Redwood UX Platform

This week we were able to share the first major fruits of the labor of the thousands of people we're both lucky to work with every day - Oracle's new Redwood user experience platform.

Years in the making, Redwood is ready for prime time.

Our Redwood Design System and Applications Platform is a total belief in using the power of design to make the world a better place and to create healthy, positive, and sustainable relationships between people and the organizations with which they interact. Four-and-a-half years ago Oracle gave Jenny Lam and Hillel Cooperman the chance to do exactly that.

This week we were able to share the first major fruits of the labor of the thousands of people I’m lucky to work with every day — Oracle's new Redwood user experience platform. There’s much more work to do, but i'm very proud to show off how far we've already come.

Building Trust in AI

In a highly-automated world of finance, with AI recommending all sorts of strategic moves, how might a CFO’s org be able to trust this new way of working with AI and ML? My team designed several parts of the UI to aid users in having confidence in the numbers. As one of our business strategists hilariously said early on in our project: “you can be creative with finance tools, but if you’re creative with numbers you go to jail.”
