Case Study
Peer Circle is a Canadian InsurTech company that reached out to us with a revolutionary idea of a whole new kind of an insurance marketplace. We got excited by the idea itself, so we couldn’t resist helping Peer Circle implement it. We developed a Proof-of-Concept (PoC) for the platform to demonstrate how the idea would be working and help attract potential investors.

FAQ
1. Why is it necessary to have a Proof of Concept (POC)?
A Proof of Concept, or POC, is an early software prototype that can be launched in the field and indicate its own further success in the market. It is a necessary step on the way to getting a test run and seeing the potential success readings of your product, which you can optimize and adjust accordingly along the way.
2. Is it possible to skip the PoC stage and go straight to MVP development?
A Minimum Viable Product (MVP) should most necessarily be preceded by thorough market research, analysis of the work scope, and efforts in preventing nasty, unexpected issues beforehand. A PoC solution with its prototyping principles may as well be the best way to conduct thorough preparations step by step.
3. What is the next step after PoC development?
A fully implemented PoC prototype should most logically be followed by a minimum viable product (MVP) that will let you add more functional “meat” to your prototype and get to testing in further in the field, among the real users. A better PoC results in the better MVP.
4. How does the PoC development with Fortifier work?
- First, we prove the need by defining the particular user pain points and issues your future solution will help solve;
- Next, we start building a prototype based on the thorough analysis of relevant goals, requirements, and ways to achieve the main purposes of your application software;
- At this point, your ready-made PoC is tested among the target audience to get relevant feedback and analyze potential customer responsiveness;
- Finally, we evaluate all the test runs to come up with a reasonable prediction of your solution’s rates of success and optimize it towards the best results.
5. How much does it cost?
PoC services at Fortifier start at $8,000 per month and take on average 340 hours all in all. The final terms may vary according to the individual level of complexity of the project and scope of work involved with it.
6. Can I implement a PoC single-handedly?
It’s simple to juxtapose the scope of your personal efforts and expenses were you to take up a PoC development individually with the conditions provided by specialized companies. Even if you are well aware and knowledgeable about all the crucial aspects like the proper development framework, localization, graphic parameters, etc., imagine how much time a one-man project like this would take.
You may as well hire a dedicated developer, but when doing that, check their rate and add hardware, third-party management, and other costs on top of that. Thus, it’s much better to go for a well-established specialized company with deep expertise in the matter and loads of experience.
