GrowthMentor's founding team came up with the idea for this app 12 months before we talked for the first time. They had very well-defined project requirements, as well as high-end mock-ups, but still needed someone to help with expanding the idea, specifying their vision, and conducting the development of an MVP. This partner had to be experienced enough to quickly bring it on the market and then continue working on it.
Assistance from the earliest stages of designing the workflow, which shortens time to market.
We held workshops and three-day-long interviews about the app idea, which turned into a lot of brainstorming sessions, leading us to discover the main challenges.
We used the Vue.js framework to build a responsive frontend application, connected as an API to the Rails backend.
We set up data analytics to gather insights about user behaviour and implement those findings in the next sprints.
First stage of the project may be completed, but the project itself is not over yet. We’re still adding new features, making tweaks, and supporting the app.
We started with MVP development and then focused on different monetization models, among other features.
Our goals were to have a fully functioning MVP to go to market within 6 months. Since we launched, over 5,000 calls have been booked on the platform and we've had widespread positive critical acclaim. What started as an MVP build, developed into a full production product which is now profitable.
