Case Study: Improving the order flow for NYC based courier service Airpals

Airpals is a B2B courier service based in New York City. Airpals is a relatively young company, operating with a small team with few resources to spare for research, thus our usability testing was especially valuable to the company. Our usability evaluation focused on their order form for scheduling a courier pickup and delivery, which is at the heart of the business.
