As businesses increasingly recognize the significance of customizable digital products, the application of meta-design becomes pivotal in empowering end-users to actively participate in the creation and refinement of their desired solutions. The project addressed three main problems: granting users the ability to customize competitions, creating an autonomous purchasing artifact, and ensuring price transparency throughout the purchase process based on user choices. The project followed the Design Science Research Methodology and underwent three iterative development phases: a solution design iteration, an MVP iteration, and a final iteration culminating in the project’s first release. The produced artifact not only achieved Acro Companion’s strategic goals but also delivered tangible value, exemplifying the effective incorporation of meta-design principles in the automation of the company’s sales process. This accomplishment holds significance from an academic standpoint, serving as a practical application of meta-design within a comprehensive case study. Additionally, the project spurred thought-provoking academic inquiries, particularly concerning transparency and its correlation with meta-design principles.engMeta-designTransparenciaAplicação WebExperiência de UtilizadorInterface do UtilizadorTrabalhos de projeto de mestrado - 2024master thesis203683242
