Sprints Sprint 13: The World Around Trevor.io The perceived importance of a company that has built a strong brand goes beyond the product or service it offers. Until now, it’s been my feeling that we’ve done a relatively poor job creating a brand at Trevor.io. Our messaging was inconsistent and not particularly aspirational. Our des Written by Harry Marshall May 18, 2020May 18, 2020
Sprints Sprint 10: creating a blog we WANT to write. Once upon a time, there was a blog. This blog’s name was…well, I don’t really remember. It didn’t have many readers. It didn’t have much content to read, to be fair. It lived at blog.trevor.io, but really wanted to be at trevor.io/blog. That’s where all the other Written by Harry Marshall March 30, 2020March 30, 2020
Sprints Sprint 9: Make Filters Great Again If you’ve been following our sprint series, in which we detail what we’re working on, you’ll know that our primary focus since summer ’19 has been building “New World“, a new and improved version of Trevor.io’s interface.

Sprints Sprint 7: Slack integration By far the most popular use-case of Trevor-to-Zapier by our customers is Trevor-to-Zapier-to-Slack, so in this sprint we’re adding a direct Trevor-to-Slack integration to smooth out that experience. Sprint goals: customers can receive notifications in a Slack channel whenever a chosen Trevor Written by Tom Gardiner November 8, 2019February 18, 2020
Sprints Sprint 6: New World Beta! The results of Sprint 4 are in and it’s a green light! The learning curve for new users was significantly improved and all test users were seen comfortably using the “New World” prototype to add, remove and edit query steps without difficulties. 🙌 The next stage is New Wo Written by Tom Gardiner October 17, 2019February 18, 2020
Sprints Sprint 5: sharing One of our big goals for Trevor next year is to introduce more ways to share your saved query results with other powerful tools. Think Slack, PowerBI, webhooks, etc. This sprint is all about building the foundations for doing so. We’re bringing all the Trevor.io sharing options toget Written by Tom Gardiner September 19, 2019February 18, 2020
Sprints Sprint 4: New World prototype This is where it starts to get exciting. Harry and I have an idea (think “vision!”) for what we call “New World” – a new and vastly improved version of Trevor’s Query Builder. The power of Trevor’s Query Builder comes in understanding the conc Written by Tom Gardiner August 29, 2019February 18, 2020
Sprints Sprint 3: Dropdown menus This sprint we’re rearranging and tidying up what we call Trevor’s control bar. This is the main bar below your query’s steps and is the control center of the query builder, i.e the primary method through which new steps are added.

Sprints Sprint 2: KPI dashboard This week’s sprint is not a product sprint, but rather all about giving Harry and I full visibility on our core KPIs so we always know exactly how we’re doing as a business. As you can see from our beautiful whiteboard session above, we’ve identified two core funnels for MRR growth Written by Tom Gardiner August 14, 2019February 14, 2020
