Working Together

How we deliver user value and learn through rapid iterative development

Hypothesis-Driven Development

Every idea is a hypothesis, and while software helps us test our assumptions about what people need, nothing beats talking to humans. We evolve products through cycles of design, build, test, and reflect — delivering value to users iteratively with each step.

Living Documentation

We will outline: Business Goals, Product Goals, Team/Personal Goals while we work together. We refine these over time to literally stay on the same page. Our approach balances technical systems with social implications — designing for both people and processes.

How We Approach Systems Design

Living Documentation

Sociotechnical Balance

Every technical system has social implications — we design for both

User-Centered Iterations

Small, testable increments that deliver immediate value while considering community impact

We prefer to work in the open (public repos, open docs) to maximize learning and transparency.

Note: Private repositories may carry additional costs. We'll have a chance to discuss

Milestones

Each milestone is designed to deliver user value and validate our hypotheses:

1

Initial Build

The first working version that users can interact with — testing our core hypothesis

2

User Feedback Session

We review together with stakeholders, gathering insights to refine our approach

3

Test User Validation

External users interact with the prototype, validating usability and core value

4

Real User Deployment

First real-world use with actual users — where we learn the most about true value delivery

Weekly Rhythm

Consistent touchpoints that keep user value at the center:

Working URLs

Live prototypes accessible for immediate user testing and feedback

Asynchronous Communication

Progress reports via GitHub + your preferred channel with user impact metrics

Weekly Status

60-minute demos focused on user value delivered and lessons learned

Project Lifecycles

We meet you where you are and support every phase of your project journey:

Discovery & First Draft

We start by understanding your vision and users' needs through research, stakeholder interviews, and rapid prototyping. This phase produces a working first version that validates core assumptions and provides a foundation for iteration.

Operationalize & Establish Ownership

We build robust systems, establish workflows, and transfer knowledge to your team. This includes documentation, training, deployment processes, and ensuring you have the tools and understanding to take full ownership.

Long-term Maintenance & Adaptation

As your project evolves, we provide ongoing support for updates, integrations, and adaptations to changing needs. This includes monitoring, performance optimization, feature additions, and strategic guidance for growth.

Flexible Engagement

You can engage us for any single phase or the complete lifecycle. We adapt our approach based on your team's capacity, timeline, and long-term goals.

Terms

Time & Materials: We bill for time spent and any agreed-upon materials

Material Costs: External costs will be agreed upon before purchase

Payment: Preferred in BitcoinSV (BSV)

Our North Star

We practice technical expertise to make better systems for people — creating strong, testable prototypes that deliver immediate user value and inform confident next steps.
