Focused expertise, applied where growth stalls.
Most scale-ups hit the same wall: the product that got you to Series A isn't the product that gets you to Series B. Humanise embeds with your team to fix the experience gaps that are costing you retention, activation, and confidence in the roadmap.
Together, we will challenge conventions, break barriers, and redefine what is possible using...
User Experience
Turn a confusing product into one people actually want to use.
When users drop off, churn early, or flood support with the same questions — that’s a UX problem. We work directly inside your product team to untangle complex flows, reduce friction in critical paths, and build the kind of experience that makes onboarding fast and retention obvious.
What this looks like in practice: user research, journey mapping, information architecture, flow design, and prototype validation — scoped to where your product needs it most.
Interface Design
A product that looks like it works as well as it does.
For founders raising, hiring, or pitching enterprise clients, how your product looks is part of how it performs. We design interfaces that give users confidence, reduce cognitive load, and reflect the quality of what’s actually under the hood — without slowing down your engineering team.
What this looks like in practice: component-level UI design, design system creation and documentation, handoff-ready Figma files, and ongoing design support as your product evolves.
Usability Audits
Find out exactly what's breaking your product experience — before your users do.
If you’re seeing high drop-off, low activation, or a feature nobody uses, a usability audit gives you a clear picture of why. We evaluate your product against real user behaviour and established principles, and deliver a prioritised action plan your team can act on immediately.
What this looks like in practice: heuristic evaluation, user flow analysis, friction point identification, and a prioritised findings report with specific recommendations — not just a list of problems.
Not an agency
We don’t operate like a traditional agency. We embed directly into your product team — working in your tools, alongside your people, focused on outcomes that move the needle.
Every engagement is structured around where you are and what you (your users & business) actually need.
3 Ways to work
Sprint
For teams who need to move fast on a specific problem.
A focused 1–2 week design sprint targeting a landing page, MVP feature, or UX improvement that’s been sitting on the backlog too long. High-fidelity UI, fast turnaround, clear outcome.
Embedded
For product teams who need ongoing senior design capacity.
We slot into your team on a weekly basis — in Figma, on Slack, iterating continuously with your engineers and PMs. The senior UX partner model, without the full-time hire overhead.
Partner
For founders and leaders who want design at the strategy level.
Full product ownership across UX strategy, design systems, and product direction. Less brief-and-deliver, more a seat at the table — where design shapes how the product grows.
