A Mobile Lab is a results-driven workshop that tackles a critical business challenge by setting measurable goals and obtaining direct feedback from customers.
It combines user testing and design thinking into a one-day session, producing an action plan with prioritized recommendations aimed at enhancing products and boosting conversion rates.

Before COVID, the user tests were run in real time during the mobile lab so that the client team could watch the sessions from an observer room while they were being done by a UX researcher. Now that we have resorted to the remote format, everything is done using online platforms. Research is conducted in advance and recorded, and the day of the Mobile Lab, the pre-recorded sessions are viewed by the clients team at the same time.
At Teacup Lab, we are thrilled to be a part of this unique experience. Ultimately, it serves as a demonstration of the value of UX research, promotes the adoption of user testing practices among potential clients, and raises awareness of the importance of a research-focused culture.
