  1. Principle We Define Research Goals

    • Identify the problem

      Help you understand what problem you're trying to solve. This could range from improving an existing feature to designing a new product from scratch.

    • Set clear objectives

      We determine what you need to learn through the research. This can involve user needs, preferences, pain points, behaviors, or expectations.

    • Align with business goals

      We ensure that your research objectives align with the overall goals of the product or company, such as increasing user engagement, enhancing usability, or driving revenue

  2. Principle Identify Target Users

    • User Segmentation

      Define the user groups you’re targeting based on demographics (age, location, job role) and psychographics (attitudes, motivations, behaviors).

    • Create Personas

      We build detailed user personas that represent the target audience to guide your research and design process.

    • Stakeholder interviews

      Help you engage with business stakeholders to understand their perspective on who the primary users are.

  3. Principle Applying User Research Methods

    • Qualitative Research Methods

      Focuses on understanding the reasons behind user behavior (User Interviews, Contextual Inquiry, Focus groups, Diary studies).

    • Quantitative Research Methods

      Provides numerical data that can be analyzed statistically (Surveys and Questionaires, Analytics review, A/B Testing).

    • Mixed Research Methods

      Combining both qualitative and quantitative methods can provide a comprehensive understanding of the problem.

  4. Principle Plan The Research Study

    • Design the Study

      Helps you choose and apply the research method(s), develop research questions, and design tasks or activities for the participants

    • Create Research Plan

      We outline the scope, objectives, timeline, participant recruitment strategy, and tools/resources needed.

    • Prepare questions

      Develop open-ended and clear questions for interviews, surveys, or usability testing. Avoid leading questions that could bias responses.

    • Recruit Participants

      Identify and recruit participants who represent your target users. Ensure diversity in the sample to get varied perspectives.

  5. Principle Conduct the Research

    • Moderate Sessions

      There are certain standards and recommendations when it comes to conducting user research sessions. It’s important not to prompt users and let them perform the tasks on their own.

    • Observe and take notes

      Document key observations, quotes, and behaviors during the sessions. Consider recording sessions (with consent) for later analysis.

    • Gather data systematically

      We make sure to collect data in a structured, consistent way.

  6. Principle We analyze the data

    • Identify patterns

      We analyze the qualitative data to identify recurring themes, issues, and user needs. For quantitative data, we look for trends and correlations.

    • Synthesize insights

      Organize your findings into actionable insights that can inform design decisions. Consider using tools like affinity diagrams or journey maps to organize and visualize data.

    • Prioritize Findings

      Not all insights are equal. Prioritize the most critical findings based on the impact on users and the business.

  7. Principle Get real data from deliverables

    • User Personas

      We identify and summarize the key characteristics of your target users, including their goals, behaviors, motivations, and pain points.

    • User journey maps

      We visualize the steps users take to accomplish tasks, highlighting touchpoints, emotions, and pain points along the way.

    • Experience maps

      We depict how users experience the product or service across different stages or channels.

    • Research report

      Get a formal report that presents our findings, insights, and recommendations in a clear, digestible format for stakeholders.

  8. Principle Present findings to stakeholders

    • Tailored presentation

      We focus on the most relevant findings for the audience (designers, product managers, developers, etc.). Use visuals and concrete examples to make the findings more relatable.

    • Get actionable recommendations

      We suggest concrete design improvements or changes to enhance the user experience.

    • User stotytelling

      You get polished user stories or direct quotes to make the findings more human and impactful.

  9. Principle Implement findings

    • Wireframes, prototypes, UI

      The design team works on visual design of the interface based on the data that was collected during the research.

    • Usability feedback

      We work with your users to validate implemented design.

    • Iterate

      UX research is an ongoing process. We continuously gather user feedback and iterate on designs to improve the product over time.

  10. Principle Measure Impact

    • Tracking performance

      We help you measure the effectiveness of design changes using metrics like conversion rates, task success rates, user satisfaction scores, etc.

    • Product refinement

      Based on the metrics, continue refining the product to ensure it aligns with user needs and expectations.
