More questions & answers
?

Who will I be working with?

You will either work with Michal or Diana - designers with over 20 years of experience. One of us will do most of the work, but we brainstorm all the major ideas together.

What are the benefits

You have access to very experienced designers. We worked on practically every product category - from financial portals, through medical, banking, lifestyle, art, IoT devices and more. We worked on over 500 different apps and websites already and that experience allows us to guide you to a better design outcome faster.

Is it suitable for my business?

We usually work with small-medium sized startups and larger, established brands. However, our plans cover multiple choices - for some businesses a single (or recurring) audit will work just fine.

How does the design process look?

We adjust the design process to fit and match each client needs. We start with finding out what the business needs and looking at past data if there’s any. This can include analytics, user comments or visual analytics recordings. Based on that we usually prepare a roadmap and plan to achieve the best result in the shortest time.

Depending on the complexity of the product, we start with either low or mid-fidelity to get the initial flows down, but after that the rest of the work happens in developer-ready high-fidelity.

I have/don’t have a designer

We often work with companies that already have a designer or a design team. In that case we focus on the most complex tasks and guiding the in-house design team. In many companies without a designer we work for a couple of months to get the product going and then recommend an in-house, guided by us designer and decrease the number of our hours.

What are focus hours?

We don’t charge for bathroom breaks, lunch or other non-design related activities. When working with clients we give their projects our full focus and attention.

That means our 20 hours is a typical equivalent to about 80-160 hours other companies normally charge for in a month. We just deliver the work faster.

Is there a work hours limit?

Before we start each design sprint, we outline what we believe can be done within that sprint so you’re never in the dark. If you need more hours because of tight project deadlines - let’s talk! We’re flexible.

Communication

We create a shared Slack for daily communication. All project comms are handled through comments in our design software. We avoid calls because they break us out of the design flow - it’s simply less efficient. This is why after the first, introductory call, any other call is counted as twice the number of hours it took. We prefer to design in that time.
