The challenge:

Editorielle had gone to market with an MVP and was showing good traction, however they had a number of manual processes in place that prevented scale and efficiency.

CREATING GROWTH

Helping window cleaning business Tidal create a seamless mobile app experience.

The challenge:

Tidal’s original apps were built by an agency without any product or user-thinking. Although usable, they were not scalable or secure enough to give the founder or users the results they were looking for.

How we helped:

We completed extensive remedial work to bring the apps up to an F+L standard of robustness. We then completely overhauled the user experience of the apps so they were aligned with what window cleaners needed them to do and eased the founder's workload.

The outcome:

The KPI for the project was to acquire and onboard 15 new window cleaning locations in 3 months. We reached this KPI in 3 weeks. Plus, a further 15 existing locations were able to move their own operations over to the Tidal app.

DISCOVERY

We’re experts on the latest trends and strategies across AI, data and IT modernisation.

We also have one foot in the startup world so are at the forefront of innovation.
