One-week prototype sprint
Clarify the core idea, map the user journeys and build a working, clickable prototype in five days, ready for testing.
Lean, AI-accelerated design and build
Idea to working prototype in one week.
We help firms test new products, portals and internal tools quickly. Lean Startup principles, service design and AI-accelerated build combine to give you a working prototype you can put in front of real users before you commit budget.

Where we help
Typically, firms call us when…
If one of these sounds familiar, a short conversation is usually the quickest way forward.
- There is a strong product idea, but the business case needs something people can see and use.
- A client portal or internal tool is needed, and a full build feels too slow and too costly.
- Stakeholders disagree on what to build, and a prototype would settle the debate.
- An existing product needs a better experience, and the team wants to test changes first.
Ways to work with us
Engagements sized to the decision in front of you.
User testing and iteration
Structured sessions with real users, with findings turned into the next version quickly and the evidence written up for decision makers.
Service and product design
Service design, UX and visual design for platforms, client portals and internal tools, so people want to use what you build.
MVP build
Taking a validated prototype through to a production-ready minimum viable product on a modern, maintainable stack.

Founder track record, regulatory technology
A disclosure platform shaped with six global banks
Took a new automated platform for shareholder disclosure across 100+ jurisdictions from concept to client-ready. Led discovery with six tier-one banks, turned conflicting interpretations into one agreed product definition, and delivered a rules engine linking every output to its source regulation.
Questions
Good to know.
Is a one-week prototype production-ready?
No, and that is the point. It is real enough for users to try and for decision makers to judge, so you only invest in a full build once the idea has earned it.
Who owns what you build?
You do. Designs, code and documentation are handed over in full at the end of the engagement.
Can you build the full product too?
Yes. Once a prototype has proved the idea, we can scope and deliver the MVP or work alongside your own development team.
