DesignMe in Austin, in short

Updated

DesignMe is a design and development agency headquartered in Gdańsk, Poland, seven hours ahead of Austin, with no Texas office. Our main Austin partnership is with Ballogy: we redesigned and rebuilt its iOS and Android app, used by 300K+ athletes, coaches and parents. In Texas we also work with Heroes (formerly Blockview) in Austin and did brand exploration for HighLevel in Dallas. Designers on US accounts work until 21:00 in Gdańsk, so we share 9:00 to 14:00 Austin time.

Rebuilding the mobile experience for an AI-powered athlete development app with 300,000+ users

Ballogy had a live app, years of features and an onboarding flow that lost new users. We redesigned every flow, from onboarding to training and profiles, built one account system for players, coaches and parents with under-13 rules, and led the iOS and Android build with their engineers.

What Austin builds

Chips, cars and robots, and the brands around them

Austin startups raised a record $7.19B in 2025, up 64.8% on 2024, with AI, robotics and manufacturing near the top.

Texas and US rules

Rules that shape Austin apps and websites

Two rules that change what a consumer app or site has to show. Each row links to its source.

  • Texas privacy law

    The Texas Data Privacy and Security Act has applied since 1 July 2024 to companies that are not SBA small businesses, with no revenue threshold. Since 1 January 2025 they must honor universal opt-outs such as Global Privacy Control.

    Thompson Hine, TDPSAChecked

  • Children under 13

    The FTC’s amended COPPA Rule took effect on 23 June 2025, with compliance due by 22 April 2026: updated notices and a written data retention policy among the changes. Apps for young athletes or students design for it from the sign-up screen.

    Federal Register, COPPA RuleChecked

We design and build to these rules. We are not lawyers: your legal or compliance team signs off on the wording.

Or email us  hello@designme.agency

Do you have an office in Austin?

No. Our whole team works from our HQ in Gdańsk, Poland, and we have partners in London. We work with Austin teams over video calls, Slack, Figma and GitHub.

Which Texas companies do you work with?

Ballogy in Austin, where we redesigned and rebuilt the iOS and Android app; Heroes (formerly Blockview), also in Austin, where we designed the web app and worked on a brand refresh; and HighLevel in Dallas, where we did brand exploration: a few concepts their team took further in-house.

How much of the Austin workday do you cover?

Five hours, 9:00 to 14:00 in Austin, and six for about three weeks a year when US and European clocks change on different dates. Our core team works 9:00 to 17:00 in Gdańsk, 2:00 to 10:00 your time, and designers on US accounts stay until 21:00.

Can you build the app, not just design it?

Yes. For Ballogy we redesigned every flow and built the frontend and backend for iOS and Android alongside their engineering team.

Do you work with hardware and manufacturing companies?

Our clients so far make software, apps and modular housing (DOMO), not devices. For hardware teams we design websites, launch and hiring pages, and motion that explains the product. Ask us what we have shipped that is closest to yours.

Who will I talk to?

Adrian Kuleszo, our founder, takes every intro call himself, between 9:00 and 14:00 your time. Once we start, a project manager is your single point of contact.

What does it cost to work with DesignMe?

Design or development starts at $6,000 a month, and full design and development starts at $10,000 a month. SEO and AEO or CRO add from $3,000 a month each. Fixed projects start with a $2,500 UX audit, and our launch packages run from $15k.

How fast can you start?

Usually within a few days. If you need to move this week, tell us on the first call and we’ll plan around it.
