Lyra — Mobile media & content product delivered by Coralsoft

The situation

What was in place before we started.

The client needed a focused product for audio-first audiences. The first release needed media discovery, playback continuity, and saved libraries, while managing large files and interrupted publishing. Coralsoft designed and delivered the 12-week MVP from discovery through release.

Delivery story

Lyra: a focused product delivered from discovery to release

01

Challenge

The client needed a focused product for audio-first audiences. The first release needed media discovery, playback continuity, and saved libraries, while managing large files and interrupted publishing.

02

How we built it

We mapped the core journey and data model first, then delivered media discovery as a working vertical slice. The next iteration added playback continuity and saved libraries, with authentication, validation, loading and failure states designed into each flow. A mobile-first TypeScript build using React Native, Expo, TypeScript, Cloudflare R2 kept the interface and service contracts consistent; the final weeks focused on QA, accessibility, and release preparation.

03

Delivery

The delivered 12-week MVP let audio-first audiences complete the core journey without relying on disconnected tools. It provided a small, maintainable foundation for testing demand and prioritising the next release.

Coralsoft turned the product brief into a maintainable 12-week MVP.
