A lot of care went into @mercury Books. Grateful to have led the design direction of this product alongside an incredible team. More to come.

The motion tells the same story as the software. Mercury Books feels like a spreadsheet but thinks like accounting software — it knows transactions, categories, relationships. The whole design thesis by Staff Product Designer @verlichen, Product Designer @andyhsuco and Product Manager Anthony Marquez ↓ nitter.net/mercury/status/2100993…

We designed Mercury Books around a simple idea: accounting as a form of organizational self-awareness

This is more exciting to me than the last five Apple events.

Here’s what changes after you flip the Books toggle in your Mercury dashboard: You never make decisions based on outdated numbers from months ago. With automatic categorization and reconciliation running in the background, your books reflect today’s reality.

Mercury = particle physics

and we're just getting started with Books

Our secret: build the obvious

don’t ask how many times we’ve replayed this...

one of the craziest animations in @mercury @verlichen cooked so hard on this 🔥 been such a pleasure watching it evolve 🥹

Software should be expressive. It’s a belief we share across @mercury, and this is one of the most authentic expressions of it i’ve worked on in a while

.

Mercury is launching something huge tomorrow. I wanted to start work on this 2.5 years ago. But it took a while to start then a long time to build it to the level and depth to launch it. Any guesses on what it is?

what a crazy week
