Career journal for
UX Designers
UX research that prevents bad decisions is the most valuable thing you do and the easiest to forget because the bad decision did not happen.
Bloom is the career journal built for the moments the work actually happens, not the night before the review.

You don't write the ux designer review. Bloom does.
Ran 12 usability sessions on the onboarding flow. Caught the password-rule confusion at step 3. PM scrapped the wizard the same week. Thirty seconds in the moment. The full review writes itself from a year of those.
