Company milestones

  • 2012 - About 4 years ago, we were both running our separate design/web-dev agencies from a co-working space in Barcelona. We had this common client, a Spanish toilet company, that wanted a lead-generation form for their flagship store. The project brief? Capture people’s attention and collect email addresses. So we put our heads together and figured we’d come up with something pretty fast. How hard could it be? Just pop “engaging lead-generation form” into Google, do a little customization work, and boom, bill the client. Turns out it wasn’t that simple. Because every form-building solution seemed to be exactly the same—just digital versions of lifeless paper forms. So we started getting a little bummed out about the product. Nothing out there seemed good enough to incentivize people to give up their valuable data. All we saw was “Name? Sex? Age?” These aren’t questions, they’re commands. So we made a decision that would change our lives (of course we didn’t know it then). We decided to build our own form from scratch. The design ethos of our new project seemed obvious from the start. It wasn’t just about what information people needed, but how they were going to get it. So we designed everything around empathy for the respondent. Here were some of our ground rules: ask just one question at a time, use natural language, apply seamless design/UX on mobile, and run built-in logic to emulate real-life conversations. Without really knowing it, we’d built the first conversational form. And a Typeform prototype was born.
