Project Summary

A recruitment tool provider hired Artkai to create a working prototype to show investors and raise funds. The engagement included an extended Research & Discovery phase and development of a functioning prototype and landing page using React.js and Node.js. Although discovery took longer than expected, the client praised the team's constant communication and agile, business-oriented approach which improved the product roadmap and enabled early user testing.

Key Challenges

Create a working prototype quickly on a tight budget
Deliver the prototype within a short timeline to attract investors and acceleration programs

Project Deliverables

Research and discovery artifacts (market research, user stories, customer journey map, features backlog, roadmap)
Functioning prototype of the TestHub platform
Landing page for the platform
Ongoing fixes, updates and technical support

Project Solution

Artkai conducted a Research & Discovery phase to produce market research, user stories, a customer journey map, a features backlog and a roadmap. They then developed a working prototype of the TestHub platform within a ~1.5 month timeframe using Ant.Design, React.js and Node.js. Artkai also built a landing page and continues to provide fixes, updates and technical support while planning the next MVP phase. The engagement involved design and development roles across discovery and production (design leads, business analyst, PM, front- and back-end developers, QA).

Project Outcome

Prototype enabled entry into acceleration programs and fundraising
Research & Discovery over-delivered and improved the product roadmap and backlog
Functioning prototype enabled user testing with initial users ASAP
