babyTRACKS Research & Strategy
Background research
More than 70% of developmental delays such as autism go undiagnosed at early wellness checkups. Social media platforms and standard development checklists provide emotional support and qualitative information on development but don’t give parents personalized feedback on their child’s development compared to their peers.
In August 2018 we looked at our website and app current situations and re-evaluate the bear minimum, we did user interviews and traditional research surveys to understand users motivation and needs. We looked at google analytics to observe the most used feature. Then we could identify users groups, mindsets and needs.

We aim to encourage early screening of developmental issues by giving parents the tools they need to pre-screen their children at home. If a child is developing more slowly than expected then the app can alert the parents that they may need extra help. If not, then it can give parents the peace of mind of knowing that their child is just like any other.
