What separates UX in the startup scene?
There are many steps between a rough idea and a successful product. And each one involves an assumption that could be wrong.
Which features are truly “must-haves”? Do they solve a real problem or just a perceived one? And have the priorities been set correctly, before the team spends months building in the wrong direction?
The pressure is greatest in the early stages: getting to market quickly, winning over investors, and attracting the first users. This phase is usually marked by a tight budget and a high degree of uncertainty, hence UX is often pushed to the back burner.
The problem? Poor UX only becomes apparent after it has already cost money through users who abandon the product, useless features, and hesitant investors.
This is exactly where we come in, before things get expensive.

Frequent founders questions
Isn't it too early for UX?
On the contrary! The sooner we test our assumptions, the less you’ll pay later for bad decisions. Testing UX before launch is cheaper than having to redesign afterward.
Do I need a massive budget?
The norm for startups, not the exception. We operate lean and focus on the core screens with the greatest impact.
Does my product need to be live?
Not at all! UX expertise is particularly valuable during the pre-launch phase. That’s because, at this stage, we help give shape to a vague idea even before development begins.
How do we cooperate?
You’ll get a sparring partner who’s on the same level as you, along with ongoing guidance. Don’t worry: with us, there’s no handover followed by radio silence.
