HeyMom iOS app

Heymom is a AI powered monitoring cameras and alert system for babies and caregivers.

In the year 2020 when we started to work together with a founder, the product joined the New York accelerator Starta, raised first funds and didn't have any users at that moment. 

Right after joining accelerator, we had App and Hardware cameras which we needed to test and reassured with parents that HeyMom was the product they really needed. After series of calls with our mentors, we conducted the Beta launch strategy of Heymom on USA market.

• Limited resources - Our challenges were compounded by the absence of a comprehensive branding guideline, small team, and the non structured previous documentation and Figma files 
• Communication and Collaboration: Working along with the Founder and consultants from the Accelerator program we joined, we needed to maintain effective communication and collaboration as it was crucial for us to ensure a shared understanding of product strategy, design principles and customers.
