Bespoke SaaS Infrastructure for Product Visualization
Case Study: Xenbuild
Xenbuild partnered with Melt Studio to accelerate the development of a software visualization platform that turns complex system architectures into intuitive, interactive maps. The collaboration focused on delivering a robust front-end experience that supports real-time insight into APIs, user flows, and data interactions—empowering product teams to understand their systems holistically.
THE CHALLENGE
Visualizing Systems Without Writing Code
Xenbuild needed to simplify how product teams and engineers understand their application architecture—without diving into raw code or fragmented documentation. The challenge: deliver a frontend UI capable of mapping relationships across APIs, interfaces, and user flows while remaining responsive, modular, and easy to maintain.
INITIAL STATE
OUR SOLUTION
Interactive Frontend for Mapping APIs and User Flows
Requirements
Simplification
Our priority was to reduce friction for end users by designing a UI layer that maps technical components—screens, APIs, and flows—into a clear, visual canvas without requiring code or database queries.
Application
Building
Using a React-based framework, our team implemented interactive components that render dynamic relationships between elements. The architecture supports scalable updates and integrates with Xenbuild’s proprietary logic.
Prototype
Release
We delivered a responsive prototype with complete UI coverage and embedded demo data. This allowed the Xenbuild team to test product flows, validate user scenarios, and define future feature sets with clarity.
DELIVER STATE
CUSTOMER FEEDBACK
Foundational UI Delivered, Ready for Product Expansion
With the prototype in place, Xenbuild gained momentum in investor conversations and internal roadmap planning. Melt’s modular UI approach now enables fast iteration and confident scale-up as the platform evolves from prototype to live product.
