charger ecosystem
How we helped Voltee bring smart electricity into cities.
Challenge
Voltee wanted to build a network of charging stations that are accessible and easy-to-use. They needed a partner who can validate their idea and build a mobile application complementing their hardware.
Voltee approached us with an idea, which we needed to validate, test, build all in a scalable and monetizable way.

Solution
Creating and establishing a new user flow on the market
Voltee, as an innovation in the smart city industry, had no user flows. Every process, every interaction with the hardware and software needed to be designed from scratch. To be agile, we started with paper sketched user flows, then built a paper box hardware prototype so we could test our designs on potential users.
Keeping up with the rapid Hardware changes
Our initial challenge was to match the software development to a complex and regularly changing hardware. This meant that we needed to continuously pivot the user flows to create and maintain effortless user experience. We installed a test hardware in our office that we could continuously test, and perform regular stress tests to reveal long-term performance issues.
Aligning the extended project team
With a complex product, a large team came along on both sides. We needed to keep everyone in line and keep the focus for the whole team. Daily standups, continuous synchronization, and constant communication with the client were part of our toolset to make communication as effective as possible.
