Our Work

Initially, the digital Junto experience was built with a variety of no-code tools to enable rapid validation of user needs. With the successful completion of their seed round, the Junto founding team decided they needed to build their own digital platform quickly after their user understanding had matured enough. When Sonic joined Junto in the Summer of 2022, we initially ran product discovery to outline the ideal digital experience for Junto’s learners, customers, and team. Sonic then rapidly scoped and built the first version of the Junto platform within just two months, and today, the product powers the entire digital journey at Junto for learners, lecturers, and the team. The Junto application has become a bar-setting product in the space and is driving Junto’s growth going forward. At the same time, the Sonic team partnered with Junto’s founders, Marius and Johannes, to devise a strong recruiting strategy for Product and Engineering, which led to Rebecca joining Junto’s team as Product Lead in October 2022. Today, the Sonic team is actively driving forward Junto’s digital product, overall experience, and growth together with the Junto team.

Project Outline

"I knew from the beginning of my recruitment process that collaborating with the Sonic team would be amazing. They are incredibly proactive and engaged and care about the Junto product as if it was their own. Their technical excellence guided us to achieve a well set up and scalable infrastructure of our learner and admin platform and enabled us to focus on what is most important: Our learners and customers at Junto."
