I approached Techne in regards to building a website for us. This started with doing a discovery meeting to work out our goals and how to proceed. From there Techne got to work on early designs keeping us in the loop and checking in to make sure that we're happy with the direction that it was heading. Once we were happy our content started to get added in, also including any changes that we may want to implement on the way. This was all completed very fast and to a very high standard, allowing us to start marketing before we opened up.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
Techne supported us across the full MVP discovery and design phase, helping turn a broad product vision into a clear, build-ready blueprint.
The scope included:
Running structured discovery and FigJam workshops to define user journeys, core use cases, and MVP priorities.
Developing a comprehensive sitemap covering 50+ screens across organiser, guest, and admin flows.
Producing detailed low-fidelity wireframes to map functionality, logic, and edge cases.
Designing high-fidelity UI concepts and a complete Figma prototype to support handover to development.
Validating technical assumptions, including early API feasibility and integration considerations.
Delivering an itemised scope of work outlining architecture, feature breakdowns, estimated effort, costs, and timelines to enable a confident development start. The key deliverables were a full end-to-end MVP design pack, a clickable Figma prototype, and a clear technical scope, giving us alignment, confidence, and a strong foundation to move straight into build.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The project delivered clear, tangible outcomes that significantly reduced delivery risk and moved our platform from concept to build-ready.
Key measurable outcomes included:
A complete MVP definition, progressing from ~10–20% clarity to a fully documented product scope covering 50+ screens and end-to-end user flows.
A clickable Figma prototype that enabled confident handover to development and alignment across founders, designers, and engineers.
Finalised technical assumptions and architecture inputs, removing unknowns ahead of development and allowing a firm build start date to be locked in.
An itemised scope with feature breakdowns, timelines, and cost estimates, enabling accurate budgeting and investor conversations.
Faster internal decision-making, with clear MVP priorities agreed and non-essential features consciously deferred.
Overall, the work materially de-risked the build phase, shortened the path to development, and gave the business confidence to proceed with execution.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Project management was strong and well structured. Gordon was organised, responsive, and clear in how work was scoped, prioritised, and delivered.
Key milestones were met on time, communication was proactive, and feedback was taken on board quickly. When the requirements evolved, they adapted without friction and kept the momentum high throughout the project.
What was your primary form of communication with Techne.?
Virtual Meeting
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
What stood out most was their honesty and clarity. Gordon was upfront about gaps, risks, and unknowns early, which built trust and avoided wasted time or false confidence.
They were pragmatic rather than salesy, focused on setting the project up properly instead of overpromising, and genuinely cared about getting the foundations right so the build could succeed.
Are there any areas for improvement or something Techne. could have done differently?
There aren’t any meaningful areas for improvement. The experience was smooth, collaborative, and well run from start to finish.
If anything, the process reinforced the value of doing proper discovery and scoping upfront, which Techne handled well and made the rest of the journey easier.

Our Story
In 2017, my app collapsed on launch. I’d been scammed by devs who over-promised.
To save my vision, I built my own elite team from scratch. We earned our name through "App Rescue," fixing failing projects others couldn't.
Today, Techne is a global studio of 70+ experts in 4 locations.
I founded Techne so you don’t have to feel my pain. We use those hard-earned lessons to de-risk your build and ensure your success.
