Key Projects We Work On

We partner with startups to unlock traction by fixing what slows them down, amplifying what already works, and turning guesswork into focused execution Here are some of the core projects we take on

Activation Flow Rebuilds

Redesign onboarding, key funnels, and early user journeys to help more users reach value—faster and with less drop-off

Retention Deep-Dives

Identify what keeps users coming back (or doesn’t), then design habit loops, value reinforcements, and feature prompts that drive stickiness

Growth Loops & Experiments

Design and ship experiments tied to referral, content, or product-led loops—with a clear view on what’s repeatable and worth scaling

Conversion Optimization

Run pricing, packaging, or funnel experiments to move users from free to paid, trial to active, or lead to close

Feature Prioritisation & Product Shaping

Help teams say no more confidently—by framing the roadmap around user value, business goals, and speed to learn

North Star & Metric Definition

Clarify what actually matters, define leading indicators, and set up simple dashboards that inform—not overwhelm—your team
