When to use discovery checkpoint
Schedule a Discovery Checkpoint when you need formal sign‑off before committing resources to development.
A practical example of discovery checkpoint
Suppose after two weeks of user interviews, a designer presents key pain points to the client, who then approves the concept direction.
How it applies to Ideoreto

Key takeaways

- Check that a revised project plan is uploaded after the checkpoint.
