Where Do You Stand?

Do Your New Users Get Stuck? What Is Keeping You From Fixing It?

Tick what sounds familiar.

Looks healthy.One leak in the first run.Users are starting to slip.Growth is getting expensive.The product is holding sales back.Most new users never see the value.Every new user costs more than they bring.

Tick what sounds familiar to see what it costs you.

Most of the signups you paid for leave on day one and never pay.

Every new customer needs hours of sales time, and small deals never close.

Support grows with every new user, and frustrated users leave before they renew.

The product feels unfinished, which makes a higher price harder to justify.

Developer time goes into the same parts again, so features ship later.

Design and code drift apart, and every sprint pays to fix it.

What you get

Five Steps From First Click To Shipped Code. Each One Ends In Work You Keep.

Run by the operators who scope them. Every step hands you files, prototypes or code your team keeps using.

Step 01 · UX auditWeeks 1 to 2

Where users stop, and what to fix first

We follow your users from signup to their first result, in the data and in conversations, and find the exact steps where they give up.

What we do

  • Analyse the signup and onboarding funnel in your product data
  • Interview users who stayed and users who left
  • Walk through every first-run screen, email and in-app message
  • Rank every fix by impact and effort

What you get

  • A drop-off map from signup to first result
  • A ranked list of fixes with impact and effort
  • Interview findings in plain language
  • A readout session with your team

From you: Access to your product analytics, a few users to talk to, and an hour with product and sales.

Step 02 · OnboardingWeeks 2 to 5

The guided first run, tested before it is built

We redesign the path to the first result and test it with real users while it is still cheap to change.

What we do

  • Map the new first run as a flow chart
  • Sketch wireframes for every onboarding screen
  • Build a clickable prototype
  • Test it with real users and fix what trips them up

What you get

  • The new onboarding flow
  • A clickable prototype of every onboarding screen
  • Test recordings and findings
  • Workshops with your team on what changed and why

From you: Feedback in two short reviews, and a few customers or prospects for the tests.

Step 03 · UI designWeeks 3 to 8

Every key screen, in every state

We design the screens that matter most so they feel finished and obvious, including the moments most products forget.

What we do

  • Design the key screens in Figma
  • Cover loading, error and empty states
  • Adapt every screen for desktop and mobile
  • Align it with your site and brand

What you get

  • Final screen designs in Figma
  • Every state for each screen
  • Layouts for desktop and mobile
  • Annotated specs for developers

From you: A product owner who can decide open questions within a day or two.

Step 04 · Design systemAlongside the screens

One source of truth for design and code

We turn the designs into a system: the rules and parts every team builds from, so the product stays consistent as it grows.

What we do

  • Define tokens for colour, type, spacing and corners
  • Build the component library in Figma
  • Document how and when to use each component
  • Check contrast and accessibility

What you get

  • Design tokens
  • A component library
  • Usage documentation with do and don't
  • An accessibility check

From you: A developer who reviews the components with us.

Step 05 · Front-end handoverFrom the first screens on

Built into your codebase, as designed

We build the components in your framework and stay with your developers until the new screens are live.

What we do

  • Build the components in your front-end framework
  • Pair with your developers on the first screens
  • Set up product analytics on the first run
  • Support test and launch

What you get

  • Components ready for production
  • The first screens built with your team
  • Analytics on the new first run
  • Support through launch

From you: Access to the repository and a developer to pair with.

What we measure

Every Change Is Measured. Where Users Stop, What They Reach.

We agree the numbers that matter at kickoff and track them with every release.

Your product metrics

Activation rate

↑ Goal: up

How many new users reach their first real result.

Activation rate

What changes

More new users reach their first result on their own.

Why

The guided first run removes the steps where they used to drop off.

Time to first result

↓ Goal: down

How long it takes from signup to that result.

Time to first result

What changes

Fewer steps between signup and the first result.

Why

We cut and merge setup steps and show the next action on every screen.

Trial to paid

↑ Goal: up

How many trials turn into customers without a sales call.

Trial to paid

What changes

More trials turn into customers without a sales call.

Why

Users see the value during the trial, so the product makes the case itself.

Support tickets per new user

↓ Goal: down

How often new users need help to get going.

Support tickets per new user

What changes

Fewer "how do I" questions from new users.

Why

Clear screens, helpful empty states and in-app guidance answer them first.

Time to ship a screen

↓ Goal: down

How fast your team builds a new screen from the system.

Time to ship a screen

What changes

New screens go from idea to release faster.

Why

Developers build new screens from ready components in the library.

Example views, no real figures. Hover or tap a tile to see what changes and why.

FAQ

Questions, Answered.

Do you only redesign screens?

We cover the whole path: UX, onboarding, UI, the design system and the handover into your code.

Do you write code?

Yes. We integrate the components with your framework and pair with your developers until the design runs in production.

We already have a design system. Can you work with it?

Yes. We build on what works, fill the gaps and document it, so your team actually uses it.

Will this match our existing brand?

If you have one, we build on it. If it pulls in different directions, we tighten it so brand, product and site say the same thing.

How long until the new first run is live?

Work starts within two weeks of kickoff. Then we run in cycles, measuring drop-off and improving with each release.

Who does the design work?

The operators who scope your engagement design and ship it. No handoff to a junior team.

Do you only work with SaaS?

No. We work on software products in general, including customer portals and internal tools.

What do you need from us?

Access to the product and its usage data, a few users to talk to, and a developer contact for the handover.

We'll map the drop-off, show you the few changes that matter most, then design and build them.
