the asks for the answers

The multi-file upload idea first came about in Q2 2023, fell off the priority list, resurfaced briefly in early Q2 2024, then dropped back down the list again before finally being completed as a mock in Q4 2025. User research for this project involved talking to the users who would be uploading files — the Within3 Customer Support team — to learn how they currently used the single file upload, and what would make their jobs easier when uploading clients' files.
