In discovery mode, we try to create solutions which are valuable, usable, feasible, and viable.

Solutions need to be:

• Valuable - Something that our customers will choose to use
• Usable - Easy to figure out how to use
• Feasible - Buildable using the technology stack and skills we have
• Viable - Workable for our stakeholders within our budget, legal, ethical, and reputational constraints

We are then trying to create products which we can plan and build a business on.

That means the products delivered need to be reliable, scalable, performant, and maintainable.
