PHASE 03: SCOPING

you have 20 features in your head. figure out which one to build first.

we find the feature everything depends on and build your roadmap around it.

This is where most projects die. You have a huge list of features, you don't know where to start, so you either build the flashy stuff first (and realize the foundation is missing) or you freeze up completely. We fix this. You dump every feature idea you have. We map the dependencies, find the one feature everything else depends on, and hand you a build sequence that ships in layers.

How It Works

A simple, straightforward process

STEP 01

Brain dump your features

List everything you want to build. Don't filter, don't prioritize. Just get it all out.

STEP 02

We map the dependencies

We figure out which features need other features to exist first. Search needs a database. Payments need user accounts.

STEP 03

You get a build sequence

A clear "build this first, then this, then this" roadmap. Your MVP stays small, and nothing gets built out of order.
