Product Discovery & Planning
Turn a rough idea into a costed, prioritised delivery plan — with the risky assumptions tested before you commit budget.
Learn more about Product Discovery & PlanningUI/UX Design
Research-led interface design and a component library your developers can build from without guesswork.
Good design is not decoration applied at the end — it is how you find out whether the product works before it is expensive to change. We prototype early, put those prototypes in front of the people who will use them, and iterate until the core journeys are genuinely easy. The output is a design system, not a set of flat images: documented components, states, spacing and colour tokens that your engineers can implement directly and that meet WCAG 2.2 AA contrast and keyboard requirements.
What this includes
- User research and journey mapping
- Clickable prototypes tested with real users
- Design systems and accessible component libraries
Other services
Custom Software Development
Web platforms, internal tools and customer portals built by small senior teams, shipped in two-week increments you can review.

Infrastructure as code, CI/CD pipelines and monitoring — so deploying to production stops being an event.

How we deliver
From first workshop to live service
Seven stages, one accountable team. Each stage ends with something you can review and a decision that is yours to make — nothing moves forward without your sign-off.
Discover
Typically 2–4 weeksWorkshops with your stakeholders, interviews with the people who will use the product, and a hard look at the systems it has to live alongside.
What you get
- Problem statement and success measures
- User journeys and current-process map
- Risky assumptions, tested
Your decision point
You decide whether to proceed — with no obligation to use us for the build.
Plan
Typically 1–2 weeksDiscovery becomes a delivery plan you can budget against: what gets built first, what waits, and what it is likely to cost.
What you get
- Prioritised backlog and release roadmap
- Architecture recommendation
- Costed estimate as a range, assumptions written down
Your decision point
Scope, budget range and change process agreed in writing.
Design
Runs a sprint ahead of buildClickable prototypes tested with real users, then a design system your engineers can build from without guesswork.
What you get
- Tested prototypes of the core journeys
- Design system and component library
- Accessibility checked against WCAG 2.2 AA
Your decision point
You approve each journey before it goes into a sprint.
Build
Two-week sprintsSmall senior teams shipping working software every fortnight, in your repositories, against a backlog you control.
What you get
- A demonstrable increment every sprint
- Peer review and automated tests on every change
- Documentation written as we go
Your decision point
Sprint review with you; reprioritise freely between sprints.
Assure
Continuous, plus pre-releaseQuality built into the pipeline rather than discovered by a customer — regression, performance and security checks before anything ships.
What you get
- End-to-end regression suite on key journeys
- Load and performance testing
- Dependency and security scanning
Your decision point
Release readiness review against agreed acceptance criteria.
Deploy
Release-ready from the first sprintInfrastructure as code, automated pipelines and monitoring, in your own cloud accounts — so going live is routine and reversible.
What you get
- Infrastructure as code in your cloud account
- CI/CD with automated rollback
- Monitoring, alerting and runbooks
Your decision point
Go-live sign-off and a rehearsed rollback plan.
Support & evolve
Ongoing, or a clean handoverA support agreement with response times in writing and time each month for improvements — or a structured handover to your own team.
What you get
- Support agreement with defined response times
- Monthly improvement allocation
- Handover sessions and pairing, if you take it in-house
Your decision point
You own everything — code, infrastructure and documentation.
