1
What kind of companies do you work with?
We work primarily with AI startups, from pre-seed founders designing their first product through to Series B companies scaling their design operations. We've also worked across Web3, health tech, and fintech. If you're building something complex and need design that makes it simple, we're probably a good fit.
2
Do you do development?
Yes. Our Product Sprint can include front-end engineering so you walk away with a working product, not just design files. Design-only sprints are $45,000. With development, sprints start at $75,000. For ongoing partnerships, we deliver developer-ready designs and work closely with your engineering team during implementation.
3
How much does it cost?
Our Product Sprint is $45,000 for 6 weeks of design. With development included, sprints start at $75,000. Our ongoing design partnership is $25,000 per month with no lock-in.

How long does a typical project take?
Product Sprints run 6 weeks. With development included, 8 to 10 weeks. Ongoing partnerships are month-to-month, with most clients working with us for 3 to 12 months.
5
How is Halaska Studio different from other design agencies?
Three things. First, we specialize in AI products, so we understand the unique design challenges that come with unpredictable outputs, trust, and new interaction patterns. Second, our founder's background at Google means we bring product thinking at a level most agencies can't. Third, we're small by design. You work directly with senior designers, not a revolving door of junior staff.
6
What does "design the right thing, the right way" mean?
It means we care as much about what gets built as how it looks. Before we design any screens, we work with you to make sure the product strategy, user needs, and business goals are aligned. Then we design with craft, precision, and attention to detail. It's about getting both the strategy and the execution right.
7
Can you help with investor materials?
Yes. We've designed pitch decks, product demos, and interactive prototypes that have helped our clients raise millions. If you're preparing for a fundraise, we can make sure your product story is clear, compelling, and backed by design that shows investors you're serious.
