Playbooks

Templates and guides for the rapid prototyping → production cycle. These power both our innovation and agency engagements.

Each playbook is a checkpoint in the escalating fidelity model. Prove value before investing more.

Customer Need → Demo (1 day) → POC v1 (3 days) → POC v2 (1 week) → POC v3 (2 weeks) = Production
