The process
Define product requirements: Based on the user research, define the product requirements that will guide the development of the platform. This step involves creating a product roadmap, outlining the key features and milestones for the project.
Develop wireframes and prototypes: Once the product requirements are defined, create wireframes and prototypes to visualize the platform’s interface and user experience. This will help identify any design or usability issues before development begins.
Develop the platform: Once the wireframes and prototypes are approved, begin the development process. This involves building the platform’s backend infrastructure and frontend user interface.
Test and QA: Once the platform is developed, conduct extensive testing and quality assurance to ensure it is stable, secure, and meets the product requirements.
Launch: Once the platform has passed testing and QA, launch it to the public. This step involves deploying the platform to a live environment and ensuring it is accessible to dental practitioners and patients.

Challenges we faced
- Meeting tight deadlines is a common challenge for development teams. Managing time effectively and delivering a high-quality product on time can be difficult. Additionally, budget constraints can affect the quality of the final product, development time, and the number of features that can be included.
- With the increasing number of cyber threats, ensuring the security and privacy of data is a major challenge, and it is crucial to stay up to date with the latest security measures and best practices.
Our learnings
- Planning is Key: Adequate planning can help to mitigate risks and ensure that the project stays on track. Developing a comprehensive project plan that includes timelines, milestones, and deliverables can help to keep the team focused and on track.
- Collaborate and Share Knowledge: Collaboration and knowledge-sharing among team members can help to promote a more efficient and effective development process. Encouraging team members to share their expertise and knowledge can help to solve problems more quickly and foster a culture of innovation.
