01Customer validation

Give promising ideas a fair test.

Good ideas keep getting postponed because nobody has time to test them.

We recruit participants, run research, and turn findings into a clearer decision: build, rethink, or stop.

Bring
An idea and audience assumptions.
Get
Evidence, a sharper hypothesis, and next steps.
Scope and examples
  • Recruit participants, including people outside your customer base.
  • Interview customers and study competing solutions.
  • Prototype where it helps test the idea.
  • Share findings, uncertainties, and recommendations.

Agree the scope, recruitment, and timing upfront. You decide what to invest in.

02Product direction prototypes

Explore what’s next.

You need to show what’s next. Your designers are busy shipping what’s already planned.

We turn an idea into realistic prototype options that fit your product, so leadership can compare directions before committing.

Bring
An idea, draft, or target metric.
Get
Prototype options, competitor research, and tradeoffs.
Scope and examples
  • Clarify the outcome and metrics.
  • Study competitors and patterns from other domains.
  • Prototype options that fit your product and design system.
  • Explain the reasoning and tradeoffs.

No complete brief needed. Customer demand and metric improvements still need testing.

03UX improvements in code

Make the first version feel right.

The feature works, but something feels off. Fixing it means pulling people off the roadmap.

We improve the flow, interactions, and visual design, then deliver pull requests for your engineers to review.

Bring
A feature and product context.
Get
Pull requests for your engineers to review.
Scope and examples
  • Identify the UX problems that matter most.
  • Improve flows, interactions, and visual consistency.
  • Implement changes independently, using AI.
  • Submit changes for engineering review.

Provide limited GitHub access, or receive a separate implementation in your stack with a preview and integration guidance. We agree scope and timing after reviewing the feature.
