You have an application idea, but it's still vague? You can express what you want in your own words, but not how to translate it into a concrete project with technical terms? You're afraid to start without knowing exactly where you're going? You want to avoid paying for an application that doesn't meet your needs? You simply want to present a clear project to your vendor?
You don't need to know everything or have all the answers. You know your reality, your business needs, and your objectives—that's enough.
I've spent the last 15 years collaborating with non-technical people and helping them translate their vision into application projects and technical terms.
I've condensed all this expertise into this structured support service to go from vague project to concrete project.
Looking forward to working with you,

What we do
We'll work together to translate your application idea into a well-defined project ready to be built.
Discovery and understanding
We start by understanding your reality and your objectives.
- Kick-off meeting. We discuss your idea, your business objectives, your target users. What problem do you want to solve? For whom?
- Context and constraints. We identify technical, budgetary, and organizational constraints. Do you have existing systems to integrate? Deadlines to meet? Internal resources available? An existing vendor to involve?
Needs analysis
We dig deeper to identify the needs behind the idea.
- User profiles. Who will use the application? What are their needs, frustrations, objectives?
- Use cases and tasks. We analyze the different usage scenarios. What does the user do? What tasks must they accomplish? In what order? Why?
- Features. From use cases and tasks, we can deduce the features the application must support.
- Prioritization. Everything can't be done at once. We distinguish the essential from the "nice to have" to define a realistic first version.
Functional specifications
We translate needs into clear, unambiguous specifications.
- Detailed features. Each feature is described in detail: what it does, how it behaves, the business rules that apply.
- Flows and journeys. We document how users navigate through the application.
- Data. What data is collected, stored, displayed? How is it related?
Prototyping
We make the project tangible before writing code.
- Wireframes. Sketches of the main screens showing the layout of elements and interactions.
- Clickable prototype. When needed, we create an interactive prototype to "test" the application before it exists. With artificial intelligence, it's increasingly easy to create prototypes quickly to validate direction and different ideas.
Technical recommendations
We guide you on technology choices.
- Architecture. Web application, mobile, both? What technical approach is best suited to your needs?
- Technologies. What languages, frameworks, services to use? We recommend pragmatic choices that are as simple as possible.
What you get
A complete file that allows you to have your application developed with confidence.
Specifications document
A detailed document describing the application: objectives, users, features, business rules, navigation journeys. This document serves as a reference throughout the project and allows you to get comparable quotes if needed.
Wireframes and prototype
Sketches (wireframes) of all application screens and, depending on needs, a clickable prototype.
