Guided diagnostic replacing a quiz-style classification
Weeks
Progress measured over coaching cycles, not sessions
01 / The Challenge
A technical vocabulary that had to feel welcoming.
Living Opera needed a mobile companion for singers to identify their vocal type (Fach), structure practice and track technical progress.
The audience is small, passionate and highly informed — it would immediately spot a superficial understanding of the craft.
02 / Our Architecture
Personas grounded in actual vocal pedagogy.
Our team ran research with working singers and professional vocal coaches — not proxies — producing personas tied to real training stages rather than generic archetypes.
We structured Fach identification as a guided diagnostic, and built practice dashboards that model progress the way a coach measures it: over weeks, not individual sessions.
03 / Systems Outcome
Technically credible without reading like a training manual.
The shipped iOS app holds an approachable surface over a rigorous underlying structure.
A specialist audience notices that balance immediately when it's missing — and trusts the product when it's right.
