Methods
PrototypingBuilding disposable stand-ins for a product — from paper and clickable wireframes to coded spikes — so teams can try interactions before committing to build. Used to explore options, align stakeholders, and run usability tests on something people can click or walk through. Fidelity should match the question: low for flow and structure, higher when timing, motion or real content matter.
Product AnalyticsUsing behavioural data from products — events, funnels, retention — to understand how people actually use features and where they drop off, informing design and personalisation decisions.
