Product Discovery Workshop

Product discovery workshop

After the user research, the next step is to hold a proper discussion session with the client before the solution goes into the development phase. This is commonly known as a product discovery workshop. As the name suggests, the primary objective of this session is to assess the scope of the project as it helps in understanding the project requirement in a profound manner and assist in building a sustainable solution that perfectly lives up to the client's expectation.

The discovery workshop was conducted in the presence of the product manager along with our app developers and designers. As the client demanded of developing a bass fishing tournament app minted with essential features, we educated them with the critical aspects of a solution that goes well with their business requirements. In the end, we mapped the idea and explained the system behaviours and tasks to obtain the flow of actions to leave no loopholes.
