We are a human-centered design agency that partners with pharmaceutical, medical, and healthcare companies to design user-friendly product interactions and experiences.
We believe design is the constant thread throughout any complex product development initiative, playing a central role in collaborating with stakeholders, and driving research through to finalized intent.
Our human-centered design process follows a best-in-class research-driven approach:
-
leveraging research and design to identify and prioritize user needs
-
developing concepts and prototypes answering your most critical questions first
-
reducing risk and project costs while delivering cumulative value to all stakeholders
By integrating design and user experience early, we help teams accelerate learnings with physical product development ranging from handheld devices to benchtop equipment, and everything in between.
IMPROVE PRODUCT DEFINITION
Innovation is a messy business, but early product definition doesn't have to be
SHORTEN DISCOVERY TIMELINES
Avoid setbacks by integrating design and customer experience early in the ideation process
SOLVE THE RIGHT PROBLEMS
Leverage the most impactful concepts to sneak up on the best solution for your customers
