Product Strategy & Discovery
Navigate the intricate landscape of product development with our systematic framework, driving alignment, insights, and a clear plan to meet your business goals.
Benefits
Whether you're a startup or a big corporation, starting off on the right foot is crucial for product development. This requires thorough research and design to drive alignment amongst all stakeholders and team members about the desirability, viability and feasibility of the planned product. Our Product Discovery Framework is your tool to create this joint understanding through uncovering, assessing, and planning all relevant aspects in a cost-effective way.
In-Depth Understanding
Our Product Discovery process provides you with a comprehensive understanding of the user, business, technical and product-related aspects of your business idea. We leave no detail unexplored, helping you to grasp all important details and dependencies that may have an outsized impact on your success.
Tailored Solutions
We excel at delivering the best-fit solutions customized to your customers' needs, leveraging our extensive business and technology expertise, covering everything from infrastructure to cloud and application development.
Establishing Foundational deliverables
We assist in establishing essential project deliverables, including a clear roadmap, robust architecture, accurate cost projections, a well-structured schedule, and a balanced team composition. These foundational elements set your project on a solid footing, ensuring clarity, confidence, and successful execution from the outset.
AWS Funding Advantage
We continuously assess, apply for and secure early-stage and ongoing AWS funding on your behalf, reducing AWS costs even further.

3. Product discovery workshops
This is where we roll up our sleeves and dive deep. We conduct workshops to understand your business challenges, create user personas and journeys, and establish the initial list of features. We prioritize these features on a roadmap and propose a system architecture for the product. Additionally, we outline the user journey and stories for your Minimum Viable Product (MVP), explore the best technology options, and evaluate features to ensure they deliver maximum benefit to your business and users.
- Goal: Define and build the key artefacts for your MVP
- Effort: These workshops involve 6-9 sessions, each lasting 4 hours, and preferably conducted in person.
The result of this phase is to create a system architecture, product roadmap, and provide pricing and team proposals.
