How a project runs

Every AnjeerLabs project runs in five phases: discover, design, build, launch and care. AnjeerLabs agrees the architecture and the screens before production code starts, builds in two-week sprints with a working demo at the end of each one, and stays on after launch to host, monitor and improve the product.

Discovery on your goals, your users and the technical facts.
Design
Architecture and interface, agreed before a line of production code.
Build
Two-week sprints, with a working demo at the end of every one.
Launch

Care
We stay on to host, monitor and improve.
6–12

weeks for a typical project

4–6

weeks for an MVP

Each phase, in full.

  1. Discover

    What happens
    We learn your goals, your users and the technical facts, and agree what the first release must do.
    What you receive
    A written scope, a plan for the first release and a timeline.
    How long
    Agreed with you before discovery begins.
  2. Design

    What happens
    We design the architecture and the screens, and you approve both before production code starts.
    What you receive
    Approved screens for every role and a technical plan.
    How long
    Agreed in the plan after discovery.
  3. Build

    What happens
    We build in two-week sprints and show you a working demo at the end of every one.
    What you receive
    Working software after every sprint, shown to you in a demo.
    How long
    Two-week sprints until the agreed scope is done.
  4. Launch

    What happens
    We test as we go, release the product to its users and hand over everything your team needs.
    What you receive
    The live product, documentation and training for your team.
    How long
    The final step of the build plan.
  5. Care

    What happens
    We stay on to host, monitor and improve the product after launch.
    What you receive
    Hosting, monitoring, fixes and planned improvements.
    How long
    For as long as you need it.

Questions, answered.

How long does a typical AnjeerLabs project take?

A typical AnjeerLabs project takes six to twelve weeks from discovery to launch, and a simple minimum viable product can be ready in four to six weeks. AnjeerLabs shares a detailed timeline before the build starts and sends weekly progress updates.

What happens at each stage of an AnjeerLabs project?

An AnjeerLabs project starts with discovery on your goals, users and technical facts. Design and architecture are agreed next, then the build runs in two-week sprints with demos, and launch comes with documentation and training.

How will we communicate with AnjeerLabs during the project?

AnjeerLabs holds a weekly call to review progress and answer questions, and sends a written update every week. Day-to-day questions go through the channel your team already uses, and AnjeerLabs explains every technical decision in plain language.

Which technologies does AnjeerLabs use to build products?

AnjeerLabs builds with stable, widely supported technologies, chosen for your product, your team and long-term maintenance rather than for what is fashionable. AnjeerLabs explains each choice in plain language before the build starts, so you know what you are getting.

What happens after AnjeerLabs launches our product?

After launch, AnjeerLabs stays on for the care phase: hosting the product, monitoring errors and performance, applying security updates, fixing bugs and planning improvements with you. The scope of care is agreed before launch and reviewed as the product grows.

Can we start with a minimum viable product first?

Yes. AnjeerLabs can start with a minimum viable product that does one job well, and that usually takes four to six weeks. Real users try it sooner, and AnjeerLabs plans the next phases from what they actually need.
