We build prototypes that actually help you decide
Most companies jump straight into development and regret it later. We create working prototypes first so you can test ideas with real users before spending serious money.
See How We WorkStarted because planning on paper rarely works
Back in 2019, I watched three startups in Taipei burn through their funding because they built the wrong product. Beautiful designs, solid code, but nobody wanted what they made.
The problem wasn't the execution. It was that they never tested their assumptions with actual prototypes. They went from sketches to full development, hoping users would love it.
We started VisionAI Intellect to fix that gap. Now we work with Taiwan businesses who want to validate their ideas before committing to full builds. Sometimes our prototypes show that the original concept needs rethinking – and that's exactly the point.
How we turn ideas into testable prototypes
Map out what you're actually trying to solve
We spend the first week just understanding your business challenge. Not the features you want, but the problem you're solving. Most projects shift direction here because clarity emerges when you stop talking about solutions.
Build a clickable version fast
Within two weeks, you'll have something you can click through. Not pixel-perfect, but real enough that users can interact with core flows. This is where you discover if your idea makes sense to people who aren't you.
Watch real people use it
We set up testing sessions with your actual target users. You'll see them get confused, delighted, frustrated – all the reactions that matter. These sessions usually reveal 3-4 major assumptions that were wrong.
Refine based on what we learned
Then we iterate. Sometimes it's small tweaks, sometimes it's rethinking entire sections. The prototype evolves until user testing shows people actually get it and want to use it.
Why prototyping matters more than you think
Here's what we've noticed working with Taiwan companies over the past few years. The ones that succeed don't have better ideas than the ones that fail. They just test their ideas earlier.
A prototype isn't about making something pretty. It's about creating the simplest version that can prove or disprove your assumptions. When you watch someone use your prototype and they immediately understand it – that's when you know you're onto something.
The Taiwan market has specific UX expectations that differ from Western patterns. Our prototypes account for these local preferences from day one, which saves months of revision later.
What clients say after testing their ideas
Linnea Bergström
Product Lead, Fintech Startup
We were about to build a feature that would have taken four months. The prototype revealed in week two that users didn't understand the core concept. Saved us from a massive mistake.
Siobhan O'Connell
Operations Director, E-commerce Platform
The testing sessions were eye-opening. What we thought was intuitive completely confused our users. The team helped us redesign the flow based on actual behavior patterns rather than our assumptions.
Let's prototype your idea properly
If you're planning to build something new in 2025 or 2026, start with a prototype. We'll help you test assumptions before you commit serious resources. Most projects take 3-6 weeks from first meeting to validated prototype.
