Where we shine
Hiring a senior product designer can cost well over $150,000 per year before benefits, equity, and recruitment costs. We provide the same strategic expertise in a flexible monthly partnership designed for growing AI startups.
A simple retainer that gives your team ongoing product design support, strategic guidance, and AI UX expertise without the overhead of a full-time hire.
Process
01
Discover
Every engagement starts with understanding the product, the market, and the people using it. We analyze your product experience, identify friction points, uncover opportunities, and align on the outcomes that matter most. The goal isn't simply to understand what you're building—it's to understand why it matters and where design can create the greatest impact.
02
Prioritize
Startups have no shortage of ideas, features, and requests. The challenge is deciding what deserves attention now. Together, we identify the highest-leverage opportunities and build a focused roadmap that balances user needs, business goals, and technical realities. This ensures we're always solving the right problems before designing solutions.
03
Design
With clear priorities established, we transform complex workflows into intuitive experiences. Whether designing AI interactions, onboarding flows, product features, or design systems, every decision is guided by usability, clarity, and long-term scalability. The objective is simple: create products users understand, trust, and want to return to.
04
Validate
Great products aren't built on assumptions. We continuously gather feedback, test ideas, and evaluate solutions before they become costly mistakes. Through rapid prototyping, stakeholder reviews, and lightweight research, we reduce uncertainty and increase confidence in every decision.
05
Developer hand off
Design should accelerate development, not slow it down. Every project is handed off with developer-ready specifications, organized files, documented interactions, and scalable design system updates. This creates alignment across teams and helps products move from concept to production efficiently.
06
Evolve
Products are never finished. As your company grows, your product must evolve alongside it. We continue refining experiences, improving workflows, and strengthening the design foundation to ensure your product remains competitive, consistent, and ready for what's next.
