The process
PRODUCT DISCOVERY & RESEARCH
We carry out activities like user interviews, user personas, empathy maps, benchmarking, and more to understand who your users are and build a strategy that puts them at the center of each decision we make while designing and developing your healthcare product.
user flows
We create detailed user flows that map out the optimal paths users will take within your healthcare product, ensuring a solid foundation to build a seamless and intuitive experience for users, patients and healthcare providers and clinicians.
Product Design
We have an iterative process to bring ideas to life through state-of-the-art- UX/UI and web design.
Wireframes set the blueprint, mockups showcase the look and feel, and prototypes let you experience the user journey while interacting with your healthcare digital solution.
The prototypes are handed to the software development team to turn them into fully functional products.
Design System and key visuals
A design system is a magic toolkit of consistent visual elements—colors, fonts, buttons, and more—that make the identity of your healthcare product look amazing, feel cohesive, and evolve consistently while preserving its quality and graphic design aesthetics.
TESTING, QA and User Feedback
We conduct user testing with interactive prototypes to ensure the new digital health product hits the mark and successfully converts. This is done through various methodologies such as surveys, interviews, usability tests, affinity diagrams, and heuristics evaluations to identify design problems.
Through this process our team of designers access insights into the UX/UI, allowing us to make changes before the coding stage to make the software development process more efficient.
