Our Story

Our Story

AGNI was founded in 2025 to help fintech companies create user experiences that drive real business results.

Our approach is different: we work alongside your team to co-create solutions using The AGNI Method, ensuring you get outcomes that work for your users, your business goals, and your regulatory requirements.

Founded by Tanisha Wijesinghe, AGNI combines strategic consulting expertise with hands-on fintech experience, from building open banking systems to leading design at enterprise scale.

Our Services

1

New Product Strategy & Design

For businesses launching new financial products, we guide you from strategic concept to fully designed solutions. Combining market analysis, user research, and hands-on design to create products that resonate with users and achieve business goals.

2

Existing Product Optimization

Transform your current fintech platform's performance through strategic UX consulting and comprehensive redesign. We analyze user behaviors, identify friction points, and redesign experiences that drive measurable improvements in engagement and conversion.

3

Organizational Design Transformation

Lead enterprise-wide design transformation initiatives that go beyond individual products. We introduce design thinking methodologies into traditional workflows while redesigning multiple touchpoints across your organization's digital ecosystem.

Why Choose AGNI?

Three Critical Tensions Every Fintech Must Balance:

  1. Business Viability ↔ Human Desirability - Revenue goals vs user needs. Most companies optimize for one at the expense of the other. The AGNI Method finds solutions that serve both through co-created validation.


  2. Global Innovation ↔ Cultural Adaptation - Best practices vs local market intelligence. What works in Silicon Valley may fail in Singapore or Sri Lanka. We help you adapt proven innovations for your specific market context.


  3. Technical Feasibility ↔ Experience Design - What's possible vs what's usable. Having built financial systems myself, I understand the constraints. We design solutions that work within technical and regulatory reality while delivering exceptional user experiences.

The Framework: Rather than ignoring these tensions or choosing sides, The AGNI Method creates solutions that balance competing priorities through collaborative validation with your team and users.

How We Work

Our process is collaborative and transparent. Most consultants present solutions. We build them together.

  1. Discover & Understand

    We begin by understanding your business goals, user challenges, and existing constraints through collaborative workshops. This includes stakeholder alignment, regulatory requirements assessment, and identifying opportunities for meaningful impact.


  2. Design & Validate

    Working alongside your team, we create solutions that balance user needs with business objectives. Our approach prioritizes high-impact implementations while ensuring designs are ready for development and meet compliance standards.


  3. Execute & Transition

    We provide ongoing support during implementation, ensuring design integrity throughout development. Projects conclude with comprehensive handoff and documentation, positioning your team for continued success.

Our process is collaborative and transparent, ensuring that you’re involved every step of the way. Here’s how we work:

  1. Discovery

    We begin by understanding your business goals, target audience, and existing challenges through workshops and interviews. This phase aligns our design strategy with your objectives, setting the foundation for a successful project.


  2. Research

    We conduct thorough user research to understand user needs and behaviors. Additionally, we perform competitor analysis to identify market gaps and opportunities. These data-driven insights inform our design decisions and strategy, ensuring that our solutions are both innovative and practical.


  3. Design

    Our design phase involves a combination of the following steps:

    Low-Fidelity Wireframes: We start by visualizing the product’s structure and functionality.

    Information Architecture: We use tools like sitemaps, journey maps, or entity relationship diagrams to define the information architecture and navigational patterns—addressing common pain points in UX.

    High-Fidelity Designs: We evolve to high-fidelity designs that align with your brand identity and user needs.

    Atomic Design Principles: We implement atomic design principles to create a scalable Design System, ensuring easy development implementation and maintenance as your product grows.

    Prototyping: If required, we create prototypes to test and refine the design and interactions.

Strategic Fintech Expertise

Access strategic consulting combined with hands-on design expertise. My background spans the full fintech ecosystem - from building open banking infrastructure at WSO2 to leading design teams at enterprise scale (Tabcorp), with formal Harvard FinTech certification.
