Creed’s discovery process

Smarter Products. Happier Users. Better Business.

Every great digital project begins with clarity

In our Discovery process, we focus on three foundational pillars that guide what comes next:

 

    1. Business and market insights
    2. User research and testing
    3. Technical feasibility and planning

The pillars of discovery

Business & market insights

What are your goals?

We ground your strategy in data—so you move forward with confidence, not assumptions.

 

  • Stakeholder interviews: Gather and align on objectives, constraints, and success criteria
  • Competitor analysis: Identify where key information is missing and highlight opportunities for differentiation
  • Data analytics: Surface trends and validate opportunities
  • Workshops: Rapid alignment sessions to prioritize business outcomes

User research and testing

Who are your users—and what do they need?

We uncover real behaviors and pain points to drive intuitive, high-value design.

 

  • User personas & flows: Map motivations, workflows, and decision paths
  • Mixed methods research & testing: Combine qualitative interviews with quantitative data
  • UX audit: Identify usability roadblocks and quick-win improvements
  • Feature prioritization:  Focus on the functionality that delivers the biggest impact
  • Accessibility & best practices audit: Ensure inclusive experiences that meet WCAG standards

Technical feasibility and planning

Can your technology support your vision and deliver results?

We verify that your chosen stack can scale, integrate, and perform under real-world demands.

 

  • Technical review: Audit existing platforms, licenses, and integrations
  • Architecture planning: Design a resilient, scalable system blueprint
  • Systems integrations assessment: Identify system dependencies and connectivity
  • Technology alignment to the business: Match technical recommendations to your strategic goals

Aligning insights with action

As we work through these three stages to uncover critical insights, we map each recommendation to your timeline, budget, and core functionality, with full visibility to trade-offs and impacts. You’ll then get a concise findings report and a focused action plan, ready to implement.
