Co-founder, Immutable
Your product deserves better than design that doesn’t convert
Your product’s powerful.
The traction? Not so much.
Users bounce
Investors hesitate
Traction stalls
The #1 reason?
A clunky experience that makes it hard for users to see the value or take action.
Bad UX doesn’t just confuse, it kills conversions.
It buries your product’s value and actively drains revenue.
In Web3 and AI, complexity is the norm.
But if users can't instantly understand your product, they leave. Fast.
They bounce when the interface overwhelms or under-explains
They churn when onboarding isn’t seamless
They pick competitors who feel easier, even if they’re less secure, or flat-out worse
Poor UX doesn’t just cost you trust.
It costs you users, revenue, and momentum.
In fast-moving markets, delays don’t just slow you down - they leave you behind.
We help founders transform complex tech into clear, compelling, high-performing products that grow…
