A practical workflow
- Day 0: Client briefs the crew in a 30-minute call with goals and data sources; crew scouts business KPIs and definitions; a named Toucan lead owns the brief
- Hour 48: The crew delivers a working app on the client's data as a URL; client reviews and requests changes; a human lead reviews and signs the release before delivery
- Day 30: The app is live in production connected to live sources with access rules; client brings teams in; crew monitors freshness and access; lead signs go-live
- Every day: Around 20 releases per month with continuous improvements; client requests changes in plain language; crew implements changes; lead signs each release
