Rapid Prototype & Validation Package

Prefect for: Teams preparing to pitch, fundraise, or hand off to development.
Price:
$12.5K–$20K

Turn your concept into a clickable, high-fidelity prototype that wins buy-in and guides build. We design key screens, align flows to real user needs and business goals, and validate with stakeholders or test users. You leave with a polished prototype, a starter design system, and dev-ready handoff files, ready for the boardroom or the backlog.

How It Works

Define
(Day 1–2)
Clarify goals, audience, success metrics; confirm the flows and screen list.
Step 1
Design
(Days 3–7)
Create high-fidelity screens and states; establish baseline components and tokens.
Step 2
Prototype
(Days 8–9)
Link screens into a realistic, testable experience (Figma by default).
Step 3
Validate
(Days 10–12)
Run 5–10 stakeholder/user sessions; capture findings and decisions.
Step 4
Refine & Handoff (Days 13–14)
Apply updates; package specs, assets, and a concise build brief for engineering.
Step 5
Timeline:
Typically 2 weeks end-to-end. Can be extended for larger scope or multiple audiences.

Pricing is customized based on project scope, team composition, and timeline.
We’ll validate the right tier at kickoff so you only pay for the depth you need.

What do we need from you?

  • A product owner for quick decisions
  • Any brand guidelines, prior research, or analytics
  • Access to 5–12 representative users or internal stakeholders (we can help recruit)
  • An engineering contact for feasibility checks and handoff alignment

Outcomes you can expect?

  • A polished, tested prototype that communicates value instantly
  • Clear guidance for engineering, reduced ambiguity and rework
  • Early validation of risk areas before code is written
  • A baseline design system that scales beyond the prototype
  • A confident story for investors, buyers, or internal stakeholders

Who is this for?

  • Teams pitching investors or enterprise buyers
  • Product leaders aligning cross-functional teams before build
  • Orgs handing off to internal or external development partners

Who is this not for?

  • Full branding/identity overhauls (handled separately)
  • Research-only projects without near-term build or pitch needs

FAQs

Who is this for and when should I use it?

For teams that need to prove a concept fast — ideal before raising capital, pitching stakeholders, or committing to a full build.

What are the expected outcomes?

A functional prototype or clickable MVP to validate core assumptions, test usability, and align internal teams around the concept.

What inputs do we need from your team?

We’ll need clarity on goals, success criteria, and any branding or existing assets you’d like to include. One kickoff workshop is usually enough.

How is this service priced? and what’s excluded?

Priced between $10K–$20K depending on complexity and level of interactivity. Excludes backend integration or full production-ready architecture.

How do we measure success?

Validated user feedback, stakeholder buy-in, and a clear decision on whether to invest in a full build or pivot.

What happens after this engagement (handoff/next step)?

Clients often transition into Delivery & Development or a Go-to-Market Strategy Sprint to refine positioning and prepare for launch.

How do you work with my in-house team?

We move fast and lightweight — your team provides context, we handle the build, and everyone reviews progress in shared environments.

What risks or blockers typically derail this—and how we mitigate them?

Over-scoping or unclear validation goals. We start with a one-page success criteria doc to ensure everyone’s aligned on what “validated” means.
