Design Discovery in Three Collaborative Sprints
Structure discovery so design, engineering, and stakeholders stay aligned without burning cycles.

Discovery is where projects drift. Anchor it with three short sprints that keep the room honest.
Sprint 1 — Clarity
Map the customer job-to-be-done, the current workaround, and the emotional stakes. Co-create a one-page narrative instead of a requirements document.
Sprint 2 — Experiments
Prototype two opposing solutions: one that embraces automation and one that amplifies human touch. Test both with five customers; record language, not just reactions.
Sprint 3 — Commitment
- Decide which experiment earns the build.
- Define the adoption moment and supporting content.
- Capture the guardrails for how the experience should feel.
The outcome is a shared vocabulary and a clear decision. Teams leave discovery with momentum and context, ready to build the right thing.
