What is a Headless PoC?

It’s a concrete test of your site or application in headless mode, built on a real portion of your domain (e.g. product landing, category page, customer area). We work on top of the existing stack: no full replatforming, no big bang.

The goal is to let business, design and IT see and touch performance, UX and integrations with current systems.

For digital / marketing teams

Validate a new UX on part of the site before investing in a full redesign.

For IT / architecture

Test a headless stack, BFF and integrations without touching the whole monolith.

When does it make sense?

  • You want to modernise the front-end but a full replatforming is too risky or expensive.
  • You need to convince internal stakeholders with something concrete, not only slides and documents.
  • You want a reusable foundation as a first step towards the new architecture.

How it works: PoC in 5 days

A lean process designed to minimise the time required from your team and maximise the value of the demo.

Timings refer to a standard PoC; we adapt scope to your context.

1Step

Kickoff & scope

Align on goals, select the page or feature to bring to headless, define the minimum integrations.

2Step

Design & UX

UI proposal based on your existing brand, with optimisations for conversion and performance.

3Step

Build & integrations

Next.js development, connection to API / BFF / headless CMS, tracking and Core Web Vitals setup.

4Step

Demo & next steps

Guided demo, feedback collection, discussion on roll-out and potential go-live.

A modern architecture, on top of the existing one

We use a BFF (Backend For Frontend) approach and/or a headless CMS to connect the new front-end to your current stack, keeping the PoC isolated but ready to grow.

New front-end

Next.js / React, UI optimised for Core Web Vitals, modern routing, analytics integration.

BFF / API layer
Headless CMS / data

Content, copy, images and configuration management for the PoC.

Existing systems

Monolith, e-commerce, CRM, ERP, internal services. The PoC talks to them via APIs or proxy.

What happens after the PoC?

The PoC is not a throwaway prototype: it can be the first piece of the new architecture, extended to more pages or flows.

  • Can be promoted to production with a few adjustments.
  • Gradual roadmap: from PoC to continuous roll-out.
  • Technical documentation for your team or partner.

Typical use cases

The Headless PoC works well in both B2C and B2B contexts, and as a tool for agencies that want to sell modern projects to their clients.

B2C – Landing / funnel

We rebuild a product landing, category page or small funnel in headless: performance, tracking and UX experimentation.

  • Simpler A/B testing
  • Integration with marketing tools
  • Foundation for progressive roll-out

B2B – Customer area / portal

A section of the private area or partner portal, with a modern UI and better data usability.

  • Better UX for critical functions
  • API/BFF to orchestrate multiple data sources
  • Test integration with SSO / identity

Web agency – PoC for clients

A white-label PoC to present to your enterprise clients and unlock modernisation budgets.

  • Concrete material for proposals
  • Reduces perceived risk for the client
  • M2Poweri as your technical partner behind the scenes

Frequently asked questions

Could this break something on the current site?

No: we pick an isolated portion (e.g. subdomain or dedicated path) and integrate in read-only mode with your systems. No risky deploys on the monolith.

How much does our team need to be involved?

We structure the PoC to require as little time as possible: typically one joint kickoff and a few technical checks for access and APIs.

Can the PoC go live?

Yes, if we agree on this from the start: we already build with production-grade quality so you can decide to promote it with minimal changes.

Can we reuse your best practices internally?

Absolutely: we can do a full handover to your team or keep supporting you as a technical partner.

Want to see if a PoC can work in your context?

In 30 minutes we analyse your scenario together (B2C, B2B or agency), identify a good candidate page and suggest the ideal scope for a concrete PoC.
