1. FIRST IMPRESSION EVALUATION [FREE]
We make a good first impression
You have a great idea for an industry changing app. Or you need to build a business tool that will improve your organization.
We’d like to meet you and see if we can help. You’ll get an initial, no strings attached, free estimate (time & costs). Our advice is based on 12 years of building complex cloud software. That’s why you’ll have everything you need to make an informed decision.
PEOPLE INVOLVED
Business
Analyst
Understands your business goals and puts forward solutions to help achieve them.
Technical
Lead
Offers ballpark, free estimate and potential technical solution for building your app.
DELIVERABLES
Based on initial meeting & questions. Refined during Product Discovery and through planning poker by devs.
2. PRODUCT DISCOVERY [PAID]
This is how unicorns are conceived
Product Discovery validates and improves your app idea without having to write a single line of code.
You will get a clearer sense of the look & feel of your app and the basic flow through a clickable, no-code prototype and user stories.
PEOPLE INVOLVED
UI/UX
Designer
Makes sure your future app is intuitive to use and information is structured accordingly. Takes care of wireframes & user flows.
Business
Analyst
Ensures features are relevant to target users & stakeholders and app addresses core business needs.
Graphic
Designer
Takes low-fidelity wireframes and turns them into actual designs, meaning a realistic representation of how your app will look.
DELIVERABLES
We treat wireframes as design, so they look as close as posible to the actual app.
Breakdown of functional specs and how users interact with the app.
3. TECHNICAL SOLUTION & MVP ESTIMATES [PAID]
Time, money and technology
In the Product Discovery stage we answered the “What app are we going to build?” question. In this stage, we answer the three How’s:
How are we
going to build it?
We decide what’s the best dev stack and the best architecture for your app. We think long term: scalability, maintainability, robustness and ease of development.
How long will it take?
We estimate the time for building the must have features. And what it takes to have them launched ASAP.
How much will it cost?
You pay for a team of profesionals per month. How many people are in this team and how long it takes to build the MVP will determine the cost.
PEOPLE INVOLVED
Technical
Lead
In charge of finding the best technical solution together with the dev team. And then providing estimates based on specs.
Project
Manager
Mediates between development team/tech lead and client. Translates technical estimates into MVP feature estimates.
DELIVERABLES
Logical view of the entire database. Formulates relations between tables. Plus constraints.
Includes overall architecture, backend and frontend technology, server requirements, third-party implementations, API design.
4. MVP PROJECT PLANNING [PAID]
Plan for the worst, you`ll get the best
Once we have the what and the how down, we can start prioritizing. This means breaking down features into manageable tasks and organizing those tasks for easy tracking.
We will decide on the adequate number of sprints (we are agile), so there is a deliverable to test and improve on after each sprint.
PEOPLE INVOLVED
Technical
Lead
Works closely with dev team to break down the user stories into testable features.
Project
Manager
Assigns tasks in project tracking software. Plans dailies, sprints and scrum meetings.
DELIVERABLES
Illustrates the project`s schedule and current status using Gantt charts.
Prioritize the features and the delivery of each requirement using MoSCoW method.
5. SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT [PAID]
Development that delivers. And keeps delivering
Finally, we can start coding. And you can see milestone by milestone how your app is shaping up.
PEOPLE INVOLVED
The Developers
They are the rockstars. They do the heavy lifting one line of code at a time.
This means following coding standards and git flows, reviewing pull requests and deploying on live servers.
The Testers
Then the testers come and nit-pick everything. Manually or through automated tests.
So in the end everything works as intended.
The Project Managers
Nobody thanks them after the launch. But really, they are the ones who keep everything together.
From daily meetings, monitoring deadlines to updating specs and fending off threats.
DELIVERABLES
We work in iterations, so you can constantly test the app and improve it together.
When the final product is ready for delivery, we handle deployment on live servers and continuous support.
Let's just do this. Together
