An independent, hands-on audit of the Qoruz signup experience. Every path tested, every failure reproduced and verified through browser DevTools.
A complete walkthrough of every signup path: Google OAuth, manual form, and the work-email qualification gate. Maps friction points to drop-off risk and proposes two design approaches based on business intent.
The Google OAuth signup path silently fails for all users. Root cause: the OAuth callback never generates a reCAPTCHA token, causing the registration API to return a 422. No error is shown to the user.
An interactive estimation model mapping both signup bugs to their potential revenue impact. Three scenario tiers (conservative, moderate, aggressive), every assumption sourced and documented, adjustable bug duration slider.
Hi, I'm Ankur Kulkarni, a product manager with 13+ years of experience across co-founding, freelance consulting and solo builds. I built KnewsIQ, an AI-powered, map-based geopolitical intelligence briefing for India, solo and end to end. Before that, I worked from 2018 to 2024 as a freelance product management consultant to early-stage startups in wellness-tech, ed-tech and agri-tech, and co-founded RoughSheet, a campus-recruitment preparation platform that reached ~73,000 registered users with no paid marketing.
I conducted this audit independently after trying to sign up for Qoruz.
