KNOWLEDGE HUB
+
What kind of companies do you work with?
Mostly early-stage to post-Series A startups in AI, SaaS, and tech. If you’re building a product that needs to look sharp and convert well, we’re probably a great fit.
+
What kind of clients did you help?
We’ve worked with AI, SaaS, and fast-moving startups like Seamless.ai, Spatial, Droxy.ai, Finverity, Intro.co, Lightdash, Blockview.ai, and Zave.it. Whether you’re pre-seed or scaling to $100M, we’ve likely solved similar design challenges.
+
What makes a good client fit for DesignMe?
Founders who value speed, clarity, and high-impact design. You trust the process, respect senior talent, and want more than just "nice visuals" — you're looking for results.
+
How fast can you start?
We usually onboard new clients within a week. If you’re in a rush, let’s talk. We can flex the team size to move faster if needed.
+
How many people work on my project?
Depends on your needs. A standard subscription gives you access to 1-2 senior designers + PM. Bigger projects = more firepower.
+
Who will I be working with?
You’ll get a dedicated Project Manager and a Lead Designer on your file. Depending on the scope, we’ll bring in specialists (brand, motion, dev, product) to keep things fast and sharp. Everything runs through one clear Slack channel so it’s never messy.
+
Do you offer full product design?
You’ll get a dedicated Project Manager and a Lead Designer on your file. Depending on the scope, we’ll bring in specialists (brand, motion, dev, product) to keep things fast and sharp. Everything runs through one clear Slack channel so it’s never messy.
+
Do you work on one-offs or only subscription?
Both. Retainers start at $8K/month. One-offs start at $10K. Need something faster or bigger? We scale the team.
+
Who’s on your team?
A tight crew of senior brand designers, product designers, motion experts, UX strategists, and Webflow/Framer devs. When you hire us, you’re not just getting a designer — you’re getting a collective of specialists with deep expertise.
+
How do you get up to speed with our business?
We send you a set of smart briefs and questionnaires to learn what matters fast. We also run discovery workshops, conduct market research, and come in with 10+ years of product, branding, and UX design experience across 100+ startups. You're not starting from zero with us.
+
Can you handle branding, product, and website work?
Absolutely. Whether you need a new brand identity, a Framer/Webflow site, or a full product UX/UI overhaul, we’ve done it all — and fast. You can mix and match based on what matters most right now.
+
What do you need to start working together?
Just a signed proposal, a short agreement, and a first payment. That’s it. We make onboarding fast so we can get to work ASAP.
+
How do you communicate and manage work?
We use Trello and Slack. You get a clean backlog, async updates, and fast feedback loops. No bloated meetings. Just progress. We can also integrate with your software and team to make the process even smoother.
+
What if I don’t use up my subscription hours?
We typically start within a week, depending on availability. Get in touch to see if we have any available spots at the moment.
+
Do you sign NDAs?
If needed, yes. But we can usually chat openly without spilling secrets. We're here to help, not learn your trade secrets.
+
Do I own everything you design?
100%. Once the invoice is paid, it’s yours. No licensing games.
+
What happens if I need to pause?
You can pause or adjust your plan — we’re flexible. Just give us a heads-up so we can manage team availability.
+
Do you bill by the hour or by the day?
We don’t bill by the hour. You’re paying for outcomes, speed, and seniority — not time spent clicking around. But for transparency, the monthly plan gives you 30 working days or up to 80 hours of focused work. If we finish early or you're not ready, you can pause for up to 2 months and pick it back up anytime.
+
What happens if I need more work beyond the $8K plan?
Simple — we charge $100/hour for any extra work. No hidden fees, no complicated estimates. You get what you need, when you need it.
+
How soon can you start?
