Product Discovery can take anywhere from one to six months, depending on the complexity of your idea. To help you estimate the duration of each stage, we have prepared some tips in our Startup Case Study.

Remember, the time required for completion also depends on the scope of the project – we will work together to adjust all project parameters to the deadline, so we can stay within the designated time.

Mikołaj Moszyński, opinia naszych klientów.

“ZIMA allowed us to look at the client’s needs from a perspective that was previously unknown to us. They question and investigate everything to ensure that the client won’t question anything later on. Thank you.”

“From the very beginning of working with Zima, I felt I was working with individuals who understand my needs. Zima’s team is open to feedback and willing to make changes. The created project meets my expectations. Upon finishing, I felt that something truly unique was created. However, while the results are impressive, the process is often more important, I myself feel I have learned a lot from it. I highly recommend working with Zima, especially if you value relationships, good communication and transparent cooperation.”
