About BOLT

The name stayed.The work evolved.

BOLT Growth Academy Ltd is the company behind BOLT. We make our own apps, games and operational software.

BOLT’s earlier direction focused on online learning. The company has since grown toward building products of its own. The registered company name remains BOLT Growth Academy Ltd; BOLT is the name you will see on everything we make.

What BOLT builds

Very different ideas. One company.

  1. Everyday support

    Calm help for ordinary days.

  2. Football

    Two games. One obsession.

  3. Operations

    Software for the way work gets done.

How BOLT thinks

Different problems. Same rule.

Useful

The product should solve or improve something real. If it does not earn its place on a screen, it does not ship.

Understandable

People should be able to work out what to do without fighting the software.

Enjoyable

Useful software can still have personality and be satisfying to use.

From idea to product

We build in loops, and test what we build.

  1. IdeaSomething worth making.
  2. ProblemName what it should fix.
  3. BuildMake the first real version.
  4. TestUse it. Watch where it fails.
  5. ImproveChange what the test showed.
  6. ProductReady when it is ready.

A way of working, not a formal or certified process.
