Still Wondering If You Need Discovery?
Here are the top concerns founders usually raise, and how Discovery solves them.
Why can’t I just start development without Discovery?
Jumping straight into dev means 30–50% of features will be unclear at kickoff.
This can lead to wasted budget, wrong tech choices, and painful rework later. Discovery prevents this by clarifying scope, priorities, and architecture before you invest heavily.
Can’t my dev team handle this on their own?
Most dev teams wait on missing documentation or misinterpret abstract ideas.
Discovery gives them dev-ready docs, wireframes, and prototypes so they can start building immediately without delays.
What if my idea is still raw or not fully defined?
That’s exactly where Discovery helps.
We turn abstract ideas into structured features, user flows, and a prioritized roadmap, making your vision tangible and ready for development.

Success Stories: Discovery Cases
Italian energy startup: discovery that secured funding for an energy MVP
Energy
Italy
A renewable energy startup approached us with an unclear scope, outdated monolithic architecture, and a limited budget. They needed a way to clarify features, reduce risk, and prepare for funding applications.
We conducted a full architecture audit, redesigned the infrastructure and security layers for scalability, and introduced a structured feature prioritization roadmap with dependencies.
The result: our Discovery deliverables became the foundation for a successful government funding application that required detailed technical documentation.
Rebuilt architecture diagrams and scalable infra design
Detailed roadmap with priorities and dependencies
Clear estimates for cost, timeline, and team setup
Clarified ~50% of previously undefined features
US logistics company: 33% scope cut with dev-ready discovery
Logistics & Transportation
United States
A US logistics company needed to build a secure gate pass system to prevent fraud. Their product vision was unclear, and they risked overscoping the MVP.
Through Discovery, we refined the product vision and reduced the MVP scope by 33%. We eliminated three non-value features, designed a driver verification SDK, and delivered complete technical documentation.
The result: Discovery cut budget risk, accelerated time-to-market, and gave the client complete documentation for immediate onboarding of any development team.
Reduced MVP scope by 33%
3 non-value features eliminated
Full SDK design and wireframes
Technical artifacts: API requirements, ERD, git-flow, sequence diagrams
PM artifacts: Roadmap, WBS, and user stories for the first 2 sprints
