Aulis
Business idea testing
The concept looks good, but you don't know whether anyone would buy it.
The problem
The concept looks good, but you don't know whether anyone would buy it.
What Aulis does
We pick the most important assumption and build the lightest test for it: landing page, customer interviews, demand test, pricing test, sales experiment or pilot.
Tangible output
Data → learning → decision. You get the results, an interpretation and a recommendation: go, iterate, change or stop.
Example
Upea Puu: demand was tested online and at the Habitare fair before wider production.
How long it takes
Market Test scoped per test – often 1–4 weeks.
Questions
Straight answers.
How do you test a business idea before investing?
Turn the idea into something a customer can react to – a landing page, a concept image or a pre-order – and measure what customers actually do. Only then decide whether to invest more. The Aulis way: pick the single most important assumption, build the lightest test for it and agree in advance what result means go.
How do you test demand for a product before manufacturing?
Show the product as concept images or 3D visualisations and ask for a clear action: a pre-order, an email or a quote request. A physical prototype at a fair or pop-up tells you more once first interest is confirmed.
What is an MVP?
An MVP (minimum viable product) is the smallest version of a product or service that shows whether customers buy and use it. An MVP can be a web page, a manually delivered service or a small batch of products – it doesn't have to be software.
