Hey everyone!
This week we had a great session with our mentors from MILAB.
We presented our idea to four different mentors and discussed with them about the difficulties, weaknesses, and strengths of our product.
We heard different opinions about our product from product experts which showed us more aspects we should consider regarding the value, availability, and core domain of our product.
After taking everything into consideration we have decided to pivot our idea.
We decided to focus more on the “downloading” action of the user, which helps her let go of certain thoughts about the tasks that are gathering in her head and preventing her from focusing, being present in the moment, or even resting.
We also decided to back away from task management, we feel like it has certain conflicts with the values we are trying to create (like sense of control and transparency with our users).
After discussing our concerns, ideas, and insights from the session we decided to pivot to a different product that better fulfills the value we are trying to achieve.
Our new product will be some sort of stress reliever, which you squeeze and talk into it when you want to “download” a task from your head to the device.
The strength and the duration of the squeeze will affect the amount of stress you feel toward completing this task.
We still have a long way to go and many decisions to make, but this week we really feel like we’re moving in the right direction.
Next week we are going to start thinking about the implementation of our product.
Can’t wait to share with you our next thoughts, ideas, and insights.
Stay tuned!
