TRL 1 → 8
We can solve your product design challenges at any stage from concept to commercialisation.
The Design for Excellence (DfX) framework is baked into our full process, ensuring your product can be produced profitably, at scale with minimal re-design.
01TRL 1–4MRL 1–3
Feasibility Sprint
We ask the right questions, then validate the idea quickly. We'll design & make rapid concept prototypes using 3D printing, electronics & coding, so you know it works before committing.
Typical Deliverables
Proof of Concept + Next Steps
02TRL 4–5MRL 3–4
Engineering Prototype
We'll add engineering vigour to the proven idea. Detailed CAD, machined metal, custom PCBs. Then we freeze the design, build a robust prototype and perform documented testing.
Typical Deliverables
Prototype + Documentation
03TRL 5–6MRL 4–6
Refinement & Trials
Field trials, user testing and feedback from key opinion leaders. The design is refined after each round and further optimised for scale production. We build the evidence for commercialisation.
Typical Deliverables
Prototype + Evidence
04TRL 6–8MRL 6–8
Commercialisation & DfX
Through thorough refinement, testing & feedback from key opinion leaders, we'll create a market-ready product. We'll develop a final design optimised for assembly, sustainability and profit at scale.
Typical Deliverables
Production-Ready Device
