Context
The Ten Percent app was born from a vision to foster inclusivity and empower individuals living with disabilities or health conditions to connect, share, and thrive within a supportive community.
Designed as a one-stop digital ecosystem, the app seeks to bridge gaps in accessibility and connection by blending user-centered design with state-of-the-art features.
The client approached Zelio with an ambitious goal: to build an app that doesn’t just serve as a platform but redefines how people living with disabilities interact with technology. They wanted to create a tool that enables users to navigate their lives with dignity and independence while amplifying their voices in a space built just for them.
Zelio partnered closely with the client to transform this vision into reality. Together, we reimagined the user experience, leveraged inclusive design practices, and introduced features that not only enhance usability but also celebrate individuality and diversity.
