01 / A USEFUL FIRST RELEASEMake the question smaller.
Make the question smaller.
Make the product real.
The first version should serve a specific user and a clear workflow. We work with founders to separate what the product needs now from what can wait.
A useful scope includes the full path the user needs to take, the data and integrations behind it, and a clear definition of what the release should help you learn.

A path to the first release.
Experience and interface.
Design the journey through the product: the main task, the states around it, and the points where clarity matters most.
INTERACTION / CONTENT / RESPONSIVE DESIGNApplication engineering.
Build the front end, application logic, data model, and integrations required for the agreed scope.
WEB / MOBILE / APIS / DATARelease and learning.
Agree on the deployment and handoff needs, then use real feedback to decide what the next iteration deserves.
RELEASE / HANDOFF / FEEDBACKSmall enough to ship.
