ConceptVines is a full-service Technology Consulting and Services company with a heavy focus on Software Product Design & Engineering.

Our Unfair Competitive Advantage in Engineering
Our business model, operating at the intersection of Product Engineering and Venture Capital, gives us a unique vantage point to see where trends & disruptive innovators are leading in defining and collapsing industry boundaries. This operating model gives us a perspective to proactively understand the industry problems and associated innovative platform and supporting technology solutions before they become mainstream.
Design Driven by Curiosity
Our customers often engage us for Deep Immersion Ideation & Design sessions where our business strategists, designers and engineers help them envision and formulate an actionable implementation plan for their initiatives. Our primary concentration on designing next generation platforms focused on the Future of Banking & Finance, Manufacturing and Healthcare allows us to infuse industry domain visionaries and expertise into our design and build processes.
Deep Tech is Our Comfort Zone
Our team of experts are continuously tinkering in our Labs. This relentless quest helps our teams to discover and, at times invent frameworks, solve industry problems, and build technology toolkits that enable us to deliver faster and better and drive value. Aside from the more traditional technology services, our teams have experiences and capabilities often hard to find like Gamification technologies in Unity and Epic Unreal Engine, Web3 technologies in Solidity and Smart Contract creation, Engineering experience across various low/no code platforms, and progressive programming languages like Google Go.
Labs for Faster Iterations
We have built our Open Innovation Platform that serves as a fuel bed of innovation. Armed with innovative solutions from our Labs, our Portfolio companies and from our more comprehensive Venture network, we can offer unique solutions that help our customers save cost & time.
For example, our customers use our Digital Twin sandboxes to replicate their production systems as APIs quickly, use advanced machine learning to load synthetic data replicating real-life scenarios without compromising data sensitivities and use low-code/no-code code engines to build products faster than ever. We are delivering functionalities in weeks that would have taken months under more traditional means.
PRODUCT STRATEGY CONSULTING
Our team of business strategists, consultants and architects help you envision and formulate an execution plan for your product and help build a go to market plan to get it into the hands of your customers.
Our SPROUT Visioning Process will help you achieve this in four stages:
Product Vision
We bring a team of strategists and experienced technology practitioners to work with your team to elaborate the vision of the product and capture your needs in a product backlog.
We help visualize the requirements with low-fidelity mockups as a starting point for iterating and conducting workshops with your team members to capture, distill, and prioritize the requirements, while keeping an eye on the big picture.

Competitive Analysis & Market Insights
We scan the market for competing products and capabilities and look for opportunities to pivot, build upon and partner so as to expand your core offering, while remaining aligned to the product vision.
We help navigate the competitive landscape and bring our network of partners, advisors and strategists to bear in order to maximize your competitive position and set you up for success.

Roadmap
We partner with you to help build your product roadmap and see how it comes to life.
Our experience of having delivered successful products helps us plan the delivery cadence in a highly predictable manner and remain focused on outcomes.

MVP
Armed with a roadmap, we help you build your first MVP.
Our agile practitioners continually deliver working increments at the end of each sprint.
We also help pivot and adapt to changing market conditions and partner with you in your product-market fit journey.

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
Our practitioners have a history of building products in the emerging technology space. If you have a problem that you need a solution for, our technologists are there to help you figure out the details. No problem is too hard, try us!
We help you build quick POCs to address technical issues or problems that you face. Our technologists thrive on hard technical challenges. We work towards identifying the problem statement and turning around solution alternatives, proposals for proofs-of-concept, working experiments and demonstrations to tackle problems in innovations research.
Through short 2 week innovation sprints, our teams turn around solutions that become the basis for further engineering and implementation.
Our practitioners have deep experience in Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies, Distributed Systems, Systems Programming, Cryptography, Augmented Reality & Virtual Reality and Digital Twins. If you have any ideas or problems related to any of these areas and you'd like to have a conversation, talk to us.


PRODUCT DESIGN
Every great product is rooted in a great user experience. Our product and service design experts help you ideate and visualize design options to deliver an optimal experience and work with you through the entire product design life cycle to take an idea from concept to visualization.
User Experience & User Interface Design
Our designers are adept at creating compelling user interfaces that are able to deliver engaging experiences on both mobile, desktop and web form factors. Designing for each form factor comes with unique considerations and best practices which our experienced designers navigate to deliver the best outcome.
Human-centric Design
Our design process is heavily influenced by an empathy-driven human-centric process that aims to work back from the real needs, emotions and experiences of the humans who are at the center of the product. This leads to the design of applications and products that are highly intuitive and sticky - leading to better engagement. Our process is a workshop-led interactive life-cycle where we get into the shoes of the people we're serving to truly understand how to design the product better in order to cater to their expectations.
