Get a senior outside view on one product problem, with evidence, priorities and a clear next step.
Choose Launch Readiness if you’re about to ship. Choose Activation if you’re live but new users aren’t reaching value.
You have a launch date, and you can't tell what will go wrong first. Your team knows the product too well to see it the way a stranger will.
Is this product ready to meet real users?
Choose this if you haven’t launched yet, or you’re about to relaunch.
People sign up, but too few reach first value. You can see the drop in your numbers, but not what’s causing it.
Why are new users failing to reach first value, and what should we change first?
Choose this if you’re live and people sign up, but too few reach value.
Not sure which one fits? Book an intro and tell me where you’re stuck. I’ll point you to the right audit, or tell you if neither is the right fit.
Read one complete sample for each audit, built around a fictional product with realistic problems.
The structure, depth and level of evidence match what you’ll receive.
Launch Readiness Audit · sample report (opens in a new tab)
A clear verdict, a five-area scorecard, the must-fix issues and a five-day pre-launch plan.
Activation Audit · sample report (opens in a new tab)
An activation journey map, evidence-backed findings, the top changes to make first and a recommended flow.
Bear walks through the Activation Audit sample: how the verdict is reached, how findings are supported, and what to do in the first week after the report.
If the audit identifies work worth doing, you can carry the fee forward.
Continue within 14 days and I’ll credit US$500 toward a Critical Flow Sprint, or the full US$900 toward your first month of a Fractional Design Partnership.
The audit stands on its own, so there’s no obligation to continue.
