Opportunity Response Action
Point in Time Intuitive Texting is universally intuitive, unlike virtual
assistants and apps.
Sense of
Place
Adaptable Product or service must react to user’s location
and nutritional priorities.
Sustained
Engagement
Responsive
Interfaces such as virtual assistants and
applications cannot be responsive in a personal
or “human” way.
“Why would anyone want to
interact with their bank through text?
For one reason: Texting is easy. It’s
familiar. According to a recent study
by Pew Research Center, text
messaging is the most widely used
smartphone feature, accessed by
roughly 97 percent of users.”
