Start Smart: UX Research from Day One
Empower Your Startup's Journey with UX Insights: Invest Early, Thrive Faster!
Hey there,
Wondering where to start?
Too often, startups go years before investing in UX Researchers to build user-centered experiences for their customers! It makes sense that UX research is usually a big investment for companies that are just starting out. I’m working to connect more early-stage startups with UX Researchers who are happy to help answer their high-level questions and shape a research strategy that will set them up for success!
UX Outloud is helping me take The Influence Index from a sharp idea to a structured, investor ready product foundation. They’ve been excellent at translating my messy founder brain into a clear research plan that gave me a lot of confidence and handed back insights I can actually execute on. It feels less like ‘user research’ and it’s like having a thought partner for structuring for the first stage of the MVP and so ideal for early-stage start-ups like mine. I also love that it’s working with apprentices, which means fresh insight and the opportunity to provide opportunities to emerging talent too!

FAQs
You can propose research questions ranging from what we call tactical (Is our product prototype intuitive? Do users know where to find pricing information on our website? etc.) to more evaluative (What do users need in a relationship with their legal representation? How do users approach the process of choosing a new car? etc.) A Researcher will work with you to understand your top research questions and scope out a project.
We recommend beginning with 3-6 high-level research questions. The researcher you work with will help to scope which questions can be answered in your project.
Project timelines depend largely on the questions at hand and resources available to facilitate research. A Researcher in training will take on projects that can be completed in 1 month or less.
While setting up your project, a Researcher will let you know what types of information and deliverables you can expect. Insights will be tailored to your questions and a Researcher will collaborate with your team to ensure that next steps are actionable.
