Product Discovery & User Experience
Make complex software easier to understand, adopt, and operate through research, workflow design, prototyping, usability testing, and accessible interface design.
When this is the right conversation
A technically correct system can still fail its users
Complex software often reflects databases and organisational structures rather than the decisions people need to make. UX work exposes ambiguity early, tests critical workflows, and gives engineering a clearer product definition.
- Users need training or workarounds for routine tasks.
- Requirements describe features but not the end-to-end workflow.
- Teams commit to build before testing the riskiest assumptions.
- Accessibility and content clarity are addressed too late.
Who this is for
Product owners, operations leaders, and technology teams defining a new system or repairing an unusable one.
Scope and next step
Product discovery and UX clarify user needs and critical journeys before implementation. Custom engineering builds the resulting software.
Delivery approach
How Algoza designs complex digital products
Research
Understand users, tasks, context, pain points, controls, and evidence.
Model
Map journeys, information, permissions, exceptions, and service interactions.
Prototype
Make critical workflows tangible before committing to full implementation.
Validate
Test comprehension and usability, then support engineering through delivery.
Technology considerations
Design outputs
- Research
- Interviews, observation, workflow analysis, requirements, and opportunity framing.
- Product definition
- Journeys, information architecture, service blueprints, and prioritised scope.
- Interaction design
- Wireframes, prototypes, content, states, permissions, and exception handling.
- Design systems
- Reusable components, tokens, accessibility rules, and engineering specifications.
Responsible outcomes
What good product design creates
Shared understanding
Business, users, and engineers can evaluate the same proposed workflow.
Earlier risk reduction
Important assumptions are tested before they become expensive code.
More usable software
Interfaces reflect real tasks, information needs, controls, and accessibility requirements.
Commercial engagement
What the engagement includes
- Engagement model
- A standalone discovery sprint or embedded design capability within an engineering engagement.
- Pricing approach
- Fixed fee for a defined discovery sprint; monthly design capacity for ongoing product work.
- Indicative timeline
- Typically 2–6 weeks for focused discovery and 6–12 weeks for complex product definition.
Typical deliverables
- User and workflow research
- Information architecture and requirements
- Prototypes and usability findings
- Accessible interface and design-system specifications
Success measures to baseline
- Task success and time on task
- User errors and accessibility findings
- Risky assumptions resolved before build
- Requirement volatility and feature adoption
Timelines and pricing methods are indicative. Algoza confirms scope, dependencies, procurement requirements, responsibilities, and commercial terms before delivery begins. Success targets are agreed against a client-specific baseline; they are not guaranteed outcomes.
