Product Description

The Strategy & Discovery phase focuses on validating the app idea before any design or development work begins. This phase ensures that the app solves a real problem, targets the right audience, and has a clear value proposition in the market.

During this stage, we analyze business goals, user needs, and competitors to reduce the risk of building an app based on assumptions. The outcome is a strategic foundation that defines what the app is, who it is for, and why it should exist.

This phase helps clients avoid costly pivots later and ensures that further investment is data-driven and purposeful.
