Our approach

Celia Collins and Marie Ferreira

Explore

Great products solve big problems. So, the first step is for us to define, qualify and articulate the problems we are trying to solve.

Together, we identify your end users, how we can benefit their lives, and what the business case for your product looks like.

Ideate

Big ideas can change the world. But turning a big idea into reality means breaking it up into manageable steps.

We’ll guide you and your team through the ideation phase, transforming your big idea into something tangible.

We create technical proof of concepts and iterative prototypes, ready for testing.

Develop

Now it’s time to turn your vision into reality. Through our iterative, collaborative process, we’ll work closely with you to develop your product.

Along the way, we’ll refine and optimise, looking out for new opportunities and features. We will work with you to deliver a skeleton product that can be tested in real life scenarios by actual users. From this we will bring together a wealth of incredible ideas, refining the product until it is viable, feasible and desirable.

User testing

Sustain

A new service or product launch is a huge moment. But even once your product is ready, there’s still much work to do.

Sustaining the life cycle of your product is just as important as building it. But don’t worry, we’ll be right there with you, making sure your business has what it needs to nurture and evolve your product for continuous growth.
