Validate your vision, build the business case, identify the high level product and technical architecture and get clarity over budgets and timelines—with zero commitment to continue.
Discovery will take you from a vague understanding of a challenge to a clear set of requirements and solutions at the ‘epic’ level.
Discovery gives you clarity. Our proven process and frameworks will help you identify your requirements, prioritise them and develop a roadmap to take you from your current position to a high ROI system.
You know the problem, but not the best way to solve it. Should you build from scratch or adapt an existing system? What features are truly essential? What’s technologies should you use? Discovery will help you distil complexity into a clear, prioritised solution that delivers real business impact.
Based on the requirements you have we will provide clear budget guidance with options that help you balance functionality, security and budget. We will also give clear guidance around opex costs so you know exactly what’s needed.
Custom solutions almost aways provide a better ROI—but only if they’re properly scoped. Discovery eliminates the guesswork by defining a lean, high-impact solution built around your real business needs.

Take advantage of a set of proven templates, workshops, exercises, checklists, documents and expertise to identify your current, future and aspirational requirements.
We will then apply a robust prioritisation framework to develop the right roadmap for your project.
From first workshop to output presentation typically takes two weeks.
We always allocate a senior project team to Discovery projects. Typically this includes a Product Director, a Senior Product Manager, a Technical Lead, a Lead Developer, a Senior UI/UX Designer, a Commercial Solutions lead and oversight from our CPO and CTO.

Our process is designed to be light on your team. Typically, we will require just one, perhaps two, single-hour workshops with you and the team. These can be done in person or over Teams.
As part of this workshop, we might have a demo of existing systems, be provided with information to review or simply uncover the required info in a Q&A format. We will review your system and apply our proven Discovery blueprints.
✓A Discovery presentation: A summary of all key areas
✓ Discovery documentation: Typically 30-40 pages of project documentation
✓ Visiontype (e.g. example screens and flows)
✓ Cost estimates & budget guidance
✓ Initial project roadmap
