What Our Clients Say
We partnered with Pharos Production at the concept stage of QuantaPay, and their startup consulting services reshaped how we approached product development, compliance, and user onboarding. Their team helped us validate assumptions through rapid prototyping and real customer interviews. We went from wireframes to investor-ready MVP in under 12 weeks. Today, we’re a fully operational digital wallet serving over 50,000 users.
Daniel Reyes
CEO of QuantaPay
Pharos Production played a vital role in launching FemTrack, our women’s health and fertility tracking app. Their startup consulting services helped us shape a product roadmap aligned with regulatory needs, user behavior, and data ethics from day one. They guided us through MVP design, clinical partner acquisition, and even helped pitch to angel investors. Their insight saved us months of trial and error.
Natalia Horbenko
Co-Founder of FemTrack
Before Pharos Production joined our journey, ShelfSense was just a prototype idea for real-time retail analytics. Their startup consulting services covered everything from GTM strategy to cloud cost modeling and AI model deployment feasibility. They didn’t just advise—they delivered actionable steps and helped us attract our first beta clients. We now have pilot programs in three supermarket chains across Asia.

Featured Startup Consulting Projects
Overview:
QuantaPay approached Pharos Production with a vision: to create a mobile-first digital wallet with crypto and fiat support for underbanked regions. They had no technical team and needed expert startup consulting services to validate, design, and launch an MVP that would pass security reviews and attract investor attention.
Consulting Services Provided:
Pharos conducted market validation via 150+ user surveys across LATAM. We helped define the core features using a prioritization matrix focused on KYC compliance, transaction UX, and exchange rate visibility. User journeys and Figma wireframes were co-created with founders in real time. We oversaw MVP development via a dedicated partner team and managed quality assurance, user testing, and app store compliance reviews.
Business & Technical Highlights:
– Supported both fiat accounts and crypto wallets (USDT, BTC)
– Integrated a third-party KYC provider and fiat on-ramp APIs
– Delivered go-to-market strategy and investor pitch deck with metrics modeling
– Helped close $300K in seed funding from 2 VC firms post-MVP release
Result:
QuantaPay launched in Beta in 3 countries, reached 10,000 users within 8 weeks, and was featured in two fintech publications. The startup’s valuation increased 4.5x in six months. Pharos Production continues as a fractional advisory partner.

Digital Wallet Startup from Ideation to MVP
Overview:
FemTrack is a privacy-first, AI-enhanced mobile app for women’s reproductive health. The founders—both from non-technical backgrounds—needed startup consulting services to shape their vision into a compliant, scalable product that met medical standards and user experience expectations.
Strategic Consulting Phases:
We started with customer discovery and personas development for three demographic segments (ages 18–25, 26–35, 36–45). A roadmap was developed around HIPAA/GDPR readiness, secure health data architecture, and cycle prediction algorithms. We worked with their designer to create a multi-language interface optimized for accessibility. Additionally, Pharos facilitated clinical conversations and product validation through partnerships with OB-GYN clinics in Ukraine and Poland.
Key Deliverables:
– Business model canvas and monetization plans (freemium + B2B licensing)
– Technical specs for cycle tracking algorithm and encrypted storage
– Investor documentation and first clinical trial onboarding pitch
– Weekly KPI review structure for pre-launch growth monitoring
Outcome:
FemTrack acquired over 15,000 organic users within its first 3 months. The startup secured a €200K angel round and was accepted into a European healthtech accelerator. Pharos Production remains engaged on feature roadmap alignment and AI model sourcing.
