Our Expertise
Research + Design
Most projects begin with a research + design phase where we start by conducting customer interviews and end up with clickable prototypes.
Development
We follow an agile development process where you'll see continuous preview builds every time we push code so that we can immediately start testing the product in front of users.
Post-Launch Support
As the company grows, the person leading the project at Thoughtful either joins the startup full-time as a technical co-founder/CTO or we'll help hire the right person.
