Story workshop

You have an idea. Here's how to turn it into a plan.

In a one-day story workshop, we work out exactly what it will take to build your idea, and you leave with a roadmap and our proposal.

What the story workshop covers

  • The who

    There may be several kinds of users in the system. What are their roles, how do they interact with each other, and what limits does the system put on them?

  • The what

    Users are trying to get something done. What are those tasks, which roles do them, and what happens when a task succeeds or fails?

  • The why

    Why each feature matters to your users and your business, which makes it much easier to decide what to build first.

“The best development studio I have ever used, hands down. The code is clean, scales well, is delivered on time and with style.”

Andrew Hyde

One day, $1,500, no obligation

The story workshop is $1,500 and usually takes a full day. You get everything we capture during the workshop, along with our proposal to turn it into working software.

There’s no obligation to hire us afterward. If we haven’t convinced you that we can build your project well, take the output of the workshop to another developer, with no hard feelings.

“Delivered quality software on time and within budget. I really like the agile software development structure with weekly meetings, etc. It really helped keep all of us on track.”

Questions about the story workshop

How much does a story workshop cost?

$1,500 for a full day.

What do we get at the end?

Everything captured during the workshop, plus our proposal to turn it into working software.

Do we have to hire you to build it?

No. If you’d rather work with another developer, take the output of the workshop with you, with no hard feelings.

Why not just start building?

Software changes as you learn about your users and your market. Mapping out the who, what, and why first gives you more accurate estimates and less frustration later, and it’s how we’ve started projects since 2007.
