Design sprint FAQs

What’s a design sprint?

Design sprints are an intense 5-day process where user-centered teams tackle design problems. Teams bring expert insights so they can ideate, prototype and test solutions on selected users.

What are the phases of a design sprint?

Design sprints typically have five phases: Understand, Sketch, Decide, Prototype, and Test. The 'Understand' phase involves understanding the problem, business goals, and target audience. 'Sketch' is the brainstorming stage to generate solutions. The 'Decide' phase involves picking the most feasible solutions. The 'Prototype' phase is about creating a simplified model of the chosen solution. And finally, the 'Test' phase involves gathering feedback from users to validate or iterate the prototype. These all can happen right in Miro.

What’s the difference between Agile and design sprint?

Agile is a project management and product development approach that prioritizes iterative progress, flexibility, and collaboration. It’s all about breaking down a project into smaller parts, referred to as "sprints" (usually 1-4 weeks), and continuously iterating based on feedback. On the other hand, a design sprint is a time-boxed process used to answer critical design questions through rapid prototyping and testing ideas. Both methodologies are similar in their iterative nature. But Agile is generally a broader ongoing approach, while a design sprint is typically a one-time, focused, five-day process used to kickstart a project or solve a particular problem.
