POC
Proof of Concept
The solution
Some questions can't be answered by talking. Will the scheduling flow feel right? Can the data model handle the real cases? Is the hard part actually possible? At some point you have to build something and find out.
In a Proof of Concept session, we build the smallest thing that answers your riskiest question. A quick test of the hard part, or a focused prototype of the core experience. We don't build billing, accounts, or any of the supporting pieces a real app needs. Just enough to learn.
What to prepare
A question to answer
The one thing you need to know before committing to a build. Not sure yet? The first session becomes Product Therapy, focused on building instead of talking.
What you've learned so far
Product Therapy records, sketches, notes, or anything else that describes the idea and the problem it solves.
The process
Build
Loam builds. We tackle the hard part or push the prototype forward, and note what we learned along the way.
Review
We meet to review the work. We try it, talk through what we learned, and set direction for the next build.
What you get
Clarity
A clear sense of whether the idea holds up and what a full build would take.
A working proof of concept
A test of the hard part or a focused prototype you can run and show others.
Video of review
Full recording of each review session you can watch any time.
The code and artifacts
All source code, designs, and notes. Everything we create together is yours.
Pricing
Choose the approach that matches your confidence. Start with three sessions. Add more as the proof of concept takes shape.
We recommend 5–10 sessions to prove out a core experience.
