NABC
A nonprofit legal platform combining institutional credibility, membership systems, and event infrastructure.
The Problem
Mission-driven institutions often need modern membership and event systems without sacrificing credibility or control.
About
NABC is an institution-facing platform built for a nonprofit legal organization operating out of Ann Arbor.
The product combines membership management, research workflows, accreditation functions, and summit registration inside a single administrative system.
It demonstrates how the studio handles trust-heavy software: where clarity, permissions, and institutional UX are non-negotiable requirements.
