A Vision for the Future of Tractors

Dialexa identified research goals and targeted users for a connected CUT. We conducted empathy mapping to understand the emotional connection of the users with their work.  From this, we created a journey map to highlight the opportunities that arise when purchasing, connecting, maintaining, and repairing the tractor. 

Dialexa highlighted the value of the electric and connected CUT tractors to the client stakeholders. We identified use cases and created envisioned applications to improve satisfaction and brand stickiness.
