Health’s Spot
An audit of an existing fitness product, turned into a production MVP definition: what is genuinely built, what has to be fixed first, and what “ready” actually means.
The problem
The product already existed as a working codebase spanning training, cardio, nutrition and recovery. The engagement started from that code rather than a blank page — establishing what was genuinely implemented, and what only looked implemented.
Define a production-ready version of the product with reliable core fitness workflows, secure handling of user data, and clear release criteria.
The challenges
- Separating genuinely implemented functionality from prototype, placeholder and incomplete surfaces, without overstating readiness.
- Tracing authentication, authorization, persistence and subscription behaviour across several frontend and backend integration points.
- Turning a broad existing feature set into a smaller, testable MVP with explicit technical and product boundaries.
- Reviewing a large structured workout-content library and identifying its consistency, delivery and maintainability requirements.
The solution
- Mapped the existing application architecture, routes, modules and external integrations to establish an evidence-based baseline.
- Audited the Strength, Cardio, Nutrition and Recovery workflows, separating calculators, deterministic rules and statistical features from generative AI.
- Defined production acceptance criteria covering identity, user isolation, subscriptions, module persistence, exports and operational quality.
- Sequenced the remediation work so security and data integrity are addressed before any further feature work.
- Established an MVP product model, and criteria for deciding when a feature can be called production-ready.
