The pilot.
Six weeks.
A fixed-scope sprint to test one risky assumption with a working artifact. Comes out with a small piece of real software and a written read-out of what we learned.
Most engagements settle into one of these shapes. We name them up front so you know what we're committing to, and what we're not.
A fixed-scope sprint to test one risky assumption with a working artifact. Comes out with a small piece of real software and a written read-out of what we learned.
A full engagement to design, prototype and ship a product surface end-to-end. You get a small senior team operating like a lab inside your company.
For unusual problems that need long sit-time. We embed, write, and ship gradually — often co-authoring research alongside the build. Limited to one per year.
A short list of things we believe enough to organise the studio around.
Every project has one accountable lead from kickoff through shipping. The deck stays the same as the team. Less hand-off, fewer agendas, more time spent inside the actual problem.
We're suspicious of novelty for its own sake. The interfaces we like are the ones that fade into the workflow — keyboard-friendly, fast on a five-year-old laptop, and legible to whoever inherits the codebase in 2031.
