Rapid User Research And Validation That De-Risks Your Product Before You Build.

No. We can conduct research with just a concept description, sketches, or simple wireframes. The sprint can test a raw idea, validate an existing concept, or evaluate an early prototype. The research method adapts to what you have. If you have a clickable prototype, we test it. If you have sketches on paper, we test those. The goal is learning, not polish.

We typically conduct research with 8 to 15 users depending on the number of distinct user segments your product serves. For a single user type, 8 to 10 sessions usually reveal the major patterns. For multi-sided products like marketplaces, we engage users from each side. We continue sessions until we reach saturation which is the point where new interviews stop revealing new insights.

We work with you to identify and recruit appropriate participants. This can include your existing customers, target users from your market, or participants sourced through research recruitment channels. We specify the exact user profile needed and handle screening. You approve participants before sessions begin. If you have access to your target users, we can involve them directly.

Typically 3 to 4 weeks from kickoff to final presentation. Week 1 is research planning and recruitment. Week 2 is research execution with users. Week 3 is synthesis, journey mapping, and strategy formulation. Week 4 is deliverable compilation and stakeholder presentation. The timeline can compress to 2 weeks for focused engagements or extend to 5 weeks for complex multi-sided products.

Yes. If you have an existing product with low adoption, high churn, or usability complaints, a discovery sprint can identify the root causes. We research how users actually experience your product, where they struggle, and what would make them stay or convert. Existing products benefit from discovery as much as new concepts. The same research methodology applies.

Fixed project fee based on the number of user segments, research complexity, and deliverables required. A single user type product is one scope. Multi-sided platforms or products with distinct user segments are scoped individually. Payment is 50 percent deposit and 50 percent at sprint completion.
