The Challenge

Worked with an agency that built most designs from around ten fixed templates, so the output looked repetitive.

Why Doodl Space

Multiple designers working across formats, with every brief documented on the platform instead of said out loud and forgotten.

The challenge Khan Academy needed to solve

Khan Academy is a nonprofit education organization that provides free courses and learning resources to students and teachers worldwide, covering subjects from math to the humanities.

Before Doodl Space, Khan Academy’s marketing team worked with an agency that built most designs from around ten standardized templates, so output looked repetitive. Briefs were often given verbally over calls, and without anything documented, details tended to fade or get missed before the design stage.

Before Doodl Space

Templates, agencies, and briefs that faded.

  • A small set of templates most designs were built from, making output repetitive.
  • A small agency team spread across multiple clients, which affected timelines.
  • Briefs given verbally over calls, so details could fade or get missed before reaching the design stage.
With Doodl Space

Documented, distinct, and improving.

  • Multiple designers working across formats, bringing new perspective inside brand guidelines.
  • Briefs documented on the platform instead of explained verbally.
  • Designers who took time to learn the brand, with feedback improving each round

“With Doodl Space, we've been able to experiment a lot with designing.”

"The reservations I started with have kind of gone away, and I now just like putting the brief onto the chat. It's been a good, positive turnaround."

What Khan Academy got out of it

Distinct
Designs

Working with multiple designers across formats moved Khan Academy away from the repetitive templates the previous agency relied on.

Documented
Briefs

Writing briefs on the platform means instructions are recorded and don't fade the way a spoken request can.

Faster
Timelines

Timelines with the previous agency were often a mess. Turnaround with Doodl Space has been strong, and it pushed Ayushi to write sharper, clearer briefs along the way.

A. Briefs are documented on the platform, so nothing relies on memory the way a verbal request can. Clearer briefs over time help too, and the team also gives feedback on how to make a brief easier to work from.
