Testing ideas quickly on the market with MVP development

Fit Drills Webcoach is a fitness coaching platform to connect coaches and athletes of different sports (e.g. running, alpinism, swimming, etc.) and to make training sessions even more efficient and personalised.

Challenge

Before Greenliff got involved, Fit Drills consisted of a webpage and the Fit Drills Workout Tracker mobile app for iOS. But the core piece, the platform which we built under the name of Fit Drills Webcoach, was still missing. However, the platform is essential for communication between coach and athlete, because it is the tool to create and share training plans and to document training progress.

How we got there

To test the customer's business idea quickly and efficiently on the market, we went for Minimum Viable Product (MVP) development tor the backend and web frontend of the platform. The entire cycle, from creation over the exchange of training plans to feedback, was supposed to work ultimately.

Creating relevance for users

The simplicity and user-friendliness of the platform were the most critical issues. Therefore, in a first step, we consistently checked each feature for its suitability for the end product and its relevance for the user.

Hit the ground running in an agile way

To move forward as efficiently as possible, we developed the MVP in an agile project approach. The customer thus continuously receives a functional version, which he can to try out and test. This methodology makes it possible to identify and eliminate errors early on in the development process.

"Reliability, extensive know-how in the area of mobile & web applications and excellent support were the reasons why I chose the professionals from Greenliff. The assignment was fulfilled to my complete satisfaction." Andreas Schneider, Founder of Fit Drills
