As a Product Manager, I had the opportunity to lead the development and launch of the Yara application.
Description:
Yara is a voice assistant application developed for the Persian language, which uses artificial intelligence to help users with their daily tasks. With Yara, users can easily stay connected to the outside world and manage their schedules, alarms, and messages through voice commands. The application also includes an avatar feature that enhances the user experience.
Features:
Voice commands: Yara can perform various tasks, including setting alarms, checking the weather, and managing your calendar, by simply using voice commands.
Persian language support: Yara is designed specifically for the Persian language, ensuring accurate and reliable responses to user queries.
Avatar feature: Yara includes an avatar that interacts with users, making the experience more engaging and user-friendly.
Easy updates: Yara can be easily updated, ensuring that users have access to the latest features and functionalities.
Challenges:
As a product manager for Yara, there are several challenges that need to be addressed to ensure the success of the application. These challenges include:
User adoption: One of the biggest challenges for Yara is to convince users to switch to a voice assistant app, especially if they are already using other popular voice assistants like Siri or Google Assistant.
Language accuracy: As Yara is designed specifically for the Persian language, ensuring language accuracy and natural language processing is a critical challenge for the product team.
Technical support: As Yara uses artificial intelligence, technical support and maintenance are critical to ensure that the application functions properly.
Feature enhancements: Yara needs to continuously improve and add new features to keep up with changing user needs and expectations. The product team needs to prioritize and plan feature enhancements while ensuring that the app remains user-friendly and accessible.
