At Tanooki Labs we consider ourselves more than product design and development help for entrepreneurs. With over 160 products built since 2013 the Tanooki Labs team brings you learnings from all of those startup lives. We know the hurdles of the design process. We know the quickest way to develop not only your MVP, but your V1 and V1.1. Our PM team knows how to manage the process, and get your app built, so you can focus on what you do best, building your business.
We believe in partnering with entrepreneurs that have deep sector knowledge to provide the design, development and process management that transforms an idea to a product. Beginning with our Sprint Zero process we work with you to identify users and their roles, create wireframes, and clearly define the user’s path through your application. We then bring that knowledge through the design and development process to deliver the application your business and your customers needs.
Through a series of in-depth product meetin gs we help you to fully define of what your product is, how a user moves through it and (most importantly) what it looks like. We follow a modified version of our process with a Product meeting followed by a Demo/Feedback meeting. These meetings happen twice a week for anywhere from 2–5 weeks with the Tanooki Design and Product teams.
At the end of Sprint Zero we all gather around a clickable Prototype of your product (generally produced in InVision or Sketch) that is used to define development and inform investors/stakeholders. Many of the product decisions that would otherwise get discovered in the course of development have been made already. Designs are not finalized, but they’re mostly complete and in almost all cases enough of the underlying design decisions have been made so that development can make highly educated assumptions about how a feature should look and behave. This helps development move quicker, and in the end more cost effectively.
All of this means that development runs more efficiently, products get done quicker, and there’s generally less change in scope from the product estimate and the final MVP/V1. That means your product is set up to succeed.
