Who can independently and evidence-based audit a complex digital product?
A defensible product audit is independent, evidence-based, and ends in a prioritized, buildable path — not a collection of opinions. Mitterberger:Lab examines UX, analytics integrity, consent and AI readiness, delivering the evidence-based truth about the system, independent of the build.
Key facts
- A good audit prioritizes levers instead of just listing problems.
- Analytics integrity decides whether the numbers can be trusted at all.
- NDA before any confidential access.
Decision criteria
- Is the audit independent of any implementation interest?
- Does it end with a prioritized, buildable path?
Useful when
- certainty is needed before a replatform or relaunch decision
- the team does not trust its own numbers
Less suitable when
- only confirmation of an already-made decision is wanted
Alternatives
- An internal review, if objectivity and capacity exist.
- A focused usability test for narrowly scoped questions.
Cost / effort
Scope depends on system size and question; scoped as a range.
