From sketch to product: our four stages of work

Discovery, design, development, then launch. What happens at each stage, and what we need from you.

Every project is different, but the flow is almost always the same. Knowing the stages up front tells you when to get involved and when you can simply wait for updates.

1. Discovery

We read the brief, ask questions, then rewrite the requirements in our own words. The result is a scope, schedule, and proposal you approve before any work starts.

2. Design

We start with rough sketches so the direction can be corrected cheaply, then move to detailed design. Your feedback is most valuable here; changing a design costs far less than changing code.

3. Development

The approved design becomes a product you can try. You get a preview link to check yourself, not just screenshots.

4. Launch & support

We set up the domain, basic security, and analytics, then stay with you through the first weeks. All access and files are handed over to you.

Each stage ends with one clear decision: continue, change direction, or stop. No stage runs silently.
