Clickable prototype: test your app idea before any code is written

A clickable prototype is an interactive preview of an app, software or website in which screens are linked together. Users click through the flows as if the product were finished, even though nothing has been programmed yet. This lets you check concept and usability early and cheaply.

A compact clickable prototype for an app's core flows is possible in the Starter package from €2,500. Extensive prototypes with many screens, fully developed UI design and several rounds of testing fall more under the Professional package from €8,000. You will receive the exact quote after the free initial consultation, once scope and goal are settled.

A prototype for the most important flows is often ready in a few weeks, including alignment meetings. If user tests and revisions are part of the project, we plan additional time – but that loop is usually the most valuable part. We set the schedule at the kick-off.

Figma runs in the browser, a prototype can be shared by link and tested on a smartphone in the Figma app. Your team comments directly in the file, and developers later read dimensions, colors and components from it. For particularly elaborate interactions, we additionally use ProtoPie.

A prototype simulates the product to test concept and usability – data is not saved and functions are not executed. An MVP, by contrast, is a first working version with the smallest sensible set of features that real users use productively. The prototype is often the step before the MVP.

Yes. Nano Concepts develops mobile apps, web apps and custom software, and the design comes from LOMA DESIGN – both at the same location. The prototype thus becomes the direct template for the functional specification, quote and implementation, with no loss of information between design and development.
