Delate is the first app that provides a platform in which every minute of delay is turned into a point that can be accumulated and used to access deals on several product and services. The app monitors the commuter journey and calculates the minutes of delay caused by the train. An intuitive and clear design that offers profits without requiring any active action from the user and that offers a reward system that encourages its daily use by transforming discomfort into an advantage.
Designed by Roberto Maurizio Paura
Recognized by A' Design Award.
During my first year of specialization in System Design, I started working in Smart-I Srl, a company involved in the increase of efficiency of public lighting and data collection, through a special sensor: SmartEye. In 2014, I graduated with honors at my specialization course. In the same period I strengthened the collaboration with Smart-I, becoming System Designer and Art Director for the company. My tasks at Smart-I consist in improving the design of the camera and the optimization of its internal components. I'm also the person in charge of the creation and the implementation of the interfaces system (UI/UX) and for corporate communication. Today, I'm the CPO of the company. In 2015, I became professor in Parametric 3D Modeling at ISIA ROMA. In 2017, I co-founded Priyatech, a company engaged in the realization of a multi-sensing camera for the reduction of domestic injuries. From the end of 2017 to March 2019, I have been consulent in UI/UX and communication for Donapp Srl, a startup incubated at Luiss Enlabs in Rome.

The Design Business Index (DBI) is a merit-based rating system and professional directory founded to address one of the design industry’s biggest challenges: the difficulty of reliably assessing a designer’s true capabilities before a project begins. Through its partnership with the internationally recognized A’ Design Award, DBI combines a rigorous blind review process with transparent evaluation criteria to transform subjective design quality into objective credentials. By featuring only those who have demonstrated excellence under these stringent standards, DBI ensures a carefully curated pool of top talent, where clients can make confident, data-driven decisions about creative partnerships.
Beyond its directory, DBI offers a comprehensive DBI Credibility Suite™ designed to help designers and studios stand out in an overcrowded market. Each DBI-rated professional receives authoritative certificates, digital assets, and rating logos that validate their skills and attest to their proven creative excellence. These tools seamlessly integrate into websites, social media, and marketing materials—reinforcing trust, credibility, and, ultimately, market value. Notably, DBI ratings remain valid for a two-year period, encouraging ongoing professional development and highlighting those who continuously push the boundaries of innovation.
By systematically reducing guesswork and eliminating reliance on subjective portfolio reviews alone, the Design Business Index creates a more efficient, trustworthy, and merit-based environment for both clients and designers. With DBI, top talent rises above the noise, clients gain peace of mind, and the entire global design community benefits from higher standards of creativity, innovation, and professional excellence.
Design Business Index champions design excellence, valuing official recognition from respected international juries over mere popularity.
