Designers, but with a particular set of skills.
Industry insiders
who hit the ground sprinting because they don't need shown the ropes.
Manufacturing masters
who know that pie-in-the-sky designs
that can't be manufactured = a startup's kiss of death.
(Don't wanna waste $90k and 8 months of time? Build designs around the tools that make them.)
Fanatics of form & function
who despise ugly products that work but won't sell, and pretty products that sell but won't work in equal measure.

...to save you from product design HELL.
Speaks fluent “manufacturing”
Manufacturers are a friendly bunch.. if you speak their language. If not, say 'Buongiorno' to outrageous MOQs and 6-figure tooling costs.
Spots icebergs... before they sink your startup.
Rookie founder pencils in 4 days for molding. 4 months later, runway hits zero and startup sinks. You don't know what you don't know, but our designers do.
Sniffs out bullsh*t
Don't have the technical smarts to call “bullsh*t” when a vendor's pulling a fast one? Then you need a designer in your corner who does.
Kings (& Queens) of Compliance
Because founders who hire compliance-lax designers have very skinny kids.
A Production Pro
3D printing, CNC machining, injection molding. Knowing which & when saves you megabucks down the line.
Oh, and did we mention...
Billing Engineered for Startup Survival?
No contract
Pause in 1-click
when devs fall behind.
Weekly billing
never pay for design you don't need.
Ridiculously flexible
switch between quad-time, part-time and full-time workloads.
And if your designer's giving you drama?
Switch designers for free, and we'll credit you with 3 days of your ex-designers fee.
(Only one person's ever taken us up on it, but the offer's always there)
We are NOT.
Not an agency
We don't fob your project off to the new guy. We find your designer then get out the way.
Not a Fortune 500 behemoth
We're a cosy, founder-run company, so fire us an email, say hi, and we'll help you in any way we can.
Not just in it for the money
Money's great, but working with impact-driven startups is what gets us out of bed in the morning.
Come say hi :)
We're a small, founder-run company, so drop us an email and say hello.
And if you're ever in a pickle, we're just a Zoom call away.
