System Design Exercise​

Business Plan

  • “We Love Grandma’s Cookies” will be a recipe repository (not just for cookies or Grandmas!) for creators to share their recipes with a global audience.
  • Monetization will be subscription-based, allowing users to subscribe to a creator and have access to their recipe content.
  • Creator will also be able to share pilot recipes for free to all users to attract new subscriptions.

Initial Product Specifications

  • Creators need a portal to create a profile, add financial remittance for the subscription, and upload their recipes.
  • Users will need access to a payment portal to make and manage their subscription.
  • There will be a search feature that, given a discrete search, users will be able to find Creators and recipes that match their search criteria.
  • The user portal should provide a minimal interface to save their favorite recipes and be updated on content from their creator subscriptions.
