WHAT IS LEAN UX?

Making products that suck is easy. Making products customers love takes skill.

Lean User Experience is a principled approach to startup products that integrates design and development to make the most of your team, increase measurable outcomes, and delight your customers. Which means good things for you and your investors.

Think it’s just another buzzword?

 Here’s why it's different.

SUCCESS STORIES

PopVOX FTW!

Headshot of Marci Harris

PopVOX (SF1, Summer 2010) went from great idea to launched product in only 13 weeks! The team created interface ideas, met with potential users, launched a beta, refined how the product would work, and had their public launch shortly after ending the residency. PopVOX won the 2011 SXSW Accelerator Grand Price in the social category.

Marci Harris is the founder and CEO.
