Frequently Asked Questions

Honest answers about how we work, what it costs, and what you can expect

It turns routine health testing into an interactive quest. Instead of formal medical terms, there is a friendly robot assistant, an achievement system and visual feedback. This increases engagement and the share of completed tests.
The full cycle: strategy and positioning, brand creation (logo, business cards, corporate identity), UX design, interface design, robot assistant animation and the technical implementation of the platform.
The robot lowers the psychological barrier: animated reactions and a friendly tone make the process comfortable. Users complete the screening far more often than with standard forms.
The project passed the competitive selection of a city program that supports healthcare innovation. A professional positioning strategy and a high-quality visual identity played a key role in pitching the project.
The full cycle took about 4 months: market research and strategy, parallel development of the brand and interfaces, animation work and the technical build of the platform.

Project details

More about the project

The project was handed over with a program management guide: the client’s content team updates activities without involving developers.

The program materials are refined every year together with the client.

Project results

The health platform showed that a government client and game mechanics can go together: users progress through wellness programs like game levels, and activity statistics are collected without medical jargon. We apply similar mechanics in turnkey corporate portals and web platforms.
