Foundey

How long does a typical project take?

MVP design sprints: 2-4 weeks. Full product redesigns: 6-12 weeks. Embedded partnerships: ongoing. We move at startup speed without sacrificing quality.

Do you work with early-stage/pre-funded startups?

We work with startups from seed to Series A. If you're pre-seed or bootstrapped, we recommend starting with a design jam session to identify quick wins before a full engagement.

What's the difference between you and other design agencies?

We only work with startups. We speak your language (CAC, PMF, runway). We embed with your team instead of just handing off files. And we focus on business outcomes, not design awards.

Can I meet the designer and see their portfolio before starting?

Absolutely. During your trial, you'll meet your designer, ask questions, and see their portfolio of work at Foundey. That said, we handle the matching process, it's our job to pair you with the right designer for your specific project and challenges. We've been doing this long enough to get it right.

How do embedded design partnerships work?

You get a dedicated lead designer and a designer who joins your team calls, iterates based on feedback, and works ongoing. Monthly retainer with flexible scope. Think fractional design team.

What time zone does the designer work in?

Our designers are flexible and can align with your preferred time zone. We ensure smooth collaboration, whether you're in the US, Europe, or elsewhere.
