Our process - How we work

Over the past decade we've refined a simple but powerful rhythm —Discover → Build → Deliver. By pairing deep research with a reusable component library, working in tight, feedback-rich sprints, and shipping in small validated increments, we eliminate waste and keep you in the loop from day one. The result is a product that fits your users, your timeline, and your budget.

Discover

Working shoulder-to-shoulder with your team, we dive deep into your business context. Focused workshops, interviews, and rapid research make goals, constraints, and user pains crystal clear.

From these insights we craft a lean product strategy: prioritized features, clean user flows, and an MVP that solves the right problem instead of chasing every idea.

The phase closes with a transparent roadmap plus effort- and budget estimates. You know exactly what you'll get—no guessing, no "black-box" development.

Real example – Fair-QR: Analysis revealed that 100% client-side processing was possible. Result: zero server costs, 2-week development instead of 8 weeks, and a tool that generates thousands of QR codes daily without any infrastructure. Read the full story →

  • Feasibility study
  • Effort & budget forecast

Build

Armed with the validated roadmap, a cross-functional squad spins up the project and ships the first demo within the very first sprint. Our goal: get a show-and-tell MVP in your hands fast, so real feedback—not hunches—guides every next step.

We work in short, feedback-rich iterations. Each week you click through working screens rather than staring at slide decks, letting us confirm priorities, uncover edge cases early, and pivot inexpensively when needed.

Slack channels, lightweight stand-ups, and an always-up-to-date kanban board keep decisions moving in hours, not weeks. The result: predictable scope, budget, and timeline—plus a product that actually hits the mark.

Real example – Yammmi: From idea to beta in 8 weeks. Weekly user testing with real meals led to 96% food recognition accuracy and 85% day-7 retention. Early iteration beats perfect planning. See the case study →

Deliver

Launch day isn’t the finish line—it’s the next starting block. We orchestrate every detail of the rollout: staging sign-off, production deploy, and last-minute smoke tests, so go-live feels boring (in the best way).

Once live, we stay at your side. Hands-on training, concise documentation, and shadow sessions ensure your team can run, tweak, and extend the solution with confidence.

Real-world usage quickly surfaces new insights. We monitor key metrics, gather user feedback, and turn that data into an iterative roadmap — growing the product and your business in lockstep.

Included in this phase

  • Quality assurance. Automated tests, UAT support, and final smoke tests to guarantee a stable release.
  • Infrastructure & CI/CD. Cloud-native pipelines and scalable hosting for smooth, repeatable deployments.
  • Training & handover. Live walkthroughs, quick-start guides, and recorded sessions for your team.
  • Post-launch analytics. Usage dashboards and KPI tracking to spot opportunities for iteration.
  • Ongoing support. Flexible maintenance plans—from bug fixes to feature sprints—so the product evolves with you.
Real example – Montana Black Game: Launched with a 0.03% crash rate across 1M+ sessions. Our extensive beta testing and monitoring ensured a smooth launch for Germany's biggest gaming influencer. Read the case study →

Our values - Balancing reliability and innovation

Bold ideas deserve rock-solid execution. We combine proven engineering discipline with a curious, forward-looking mindset—delivering clear communication, predictable costs, and solutions that grow with your business.

  • Reliable. Deadlines, uptime, and budgets matter. We commit to them—and hit them—so you can plan with confidence.
  • Transparent. Roadmaps, sprint boards, and cost breakdowns are open to you 24/7. No black boxes, no surprises.
  • Proactive. We surface risks and opportunities early, steering the project before issues turn into delays.
  • Solution-oriented. Every feature ties back to a measurable user or business goal—never development for its own sake.
  • Collaborative. Workshops, weekly demos, and shared channels keep our teams aligned and ideas flowing both ways.
  • Long-term mindset. Clean code, automated tests, and sensible architecture mean the product can evolve without hidden technical debt—or hidden costs.
