Integration Proposal – Circle Panel
1. Product Overview
Circle Panel is an end-to-end user research platform designed for product teams across the Middle East and North Africa. It combines AI-powered discussion guide generation, automatic interview transcription in Arabic and English, insight extraction, analysis, and professional report generation into a single platform. The platform simplifies the entire user research lifecycle and eliminates the need for multiple separate tools.
2. Integration with Ghaymah Cloud
Circle Panel can benefit from Ghaymah's cloud infrastructure by adopting a containerized architecture.
Proposed Architecture
- Frontend deployed as a Ghaymah Container.
- Backend API deployed as a separate container.
- AI Processing Service deployed independently for transcription and analysis.
- PostgreSQL database using Ghaymah Block Storage for persistent data.
- User-uploaded audio and video recordings stored on Block Storage.
- GitHub Actions integrated with Ghaymah CLI for automated deployments.
This architecture allows each component to scale independently depending on workload.
3. Integration with mithal.space
Circle Panel can integrate with mithal.space by making its public documentation, blog articles, and learning resources searchable through the platform.
Benefits include:
- Better visibility among Arabic-speaking product teams.
- Increased organic discovery through technical content.
- Easier access to UX research resources and documentation.
4. Value for End Users
The proposed integration provides several advantages:
- Faster application performance through scalable containers.
- Reliable storage for interview recordings and research data.
- Independent scaling of AI services during peak workloads.
- Reduced downtime during deployments using CI/CD.
- Easier discovery through mithal.space search.
