had a vision to create a platform that enabled custom health engagements between patients and healthcare professionals.
The objective was to create a platform where patients could use these engagements on their phones while being supported by healthcare professionals who could monitor their progress in an online platform.
The Problem
HealthMotivate had a big idea but struggled to focus on an achievable scope of work that could be quickly tested in their clinic. They lacked expertise in software engineering, product management, and project management, and had never built a software product or taken one to market. The challenge was to help them streamline their vision and identify an achievable scope of work, while guiding them through the product development process.
The Solution
Sproutly stepped in to provide project leadership, technical leadership, and to help HealthMotivate embrace product management philosophies to guide their product discovery and roadmapping. We were excited to help our client improve their user experience by providing extra design assistance and becoming their engineering team. Together, we created a unique cross-platform UX library, supported by a custom design tool and scripting environment, which made it possible for HealthMotivate’s design team to create highly customized engagements. With our help, the platform was integrated with Apple Health and Google Fit, making it easier for patients to monitor and integrate their health data with the app.
The Results
The outcome of the project was an extensive ecosystem hosted in AWS that powers doctor/patient relationships to motivate healthy lifestyle changes. The platform is adaptable to new types of engagements, making it a fantastic platform for research. HealthMotivate is now in the final steps of taking their platform to market.
Conclusion
Sproutly successfully helped HealthMotivate turn their big idea into a reality by providing expertise in software engineering, product management, and project management. By introducing customer development principles and helping them focus on an achievable scope of work, we were able to guide them through the product development process and create a platform that enables custom health engagements between patients and healthcare professionals.
