Our UX agency process - step by step to the digital product experience

As a UX agency with over 20 years of experience, we follow a clearly structured process that focuses on the needs of the user. From user research, initial ideas and detailed conception through to the final UI design and front-end implementation, we create digital solutions that work intuitively and offer real added value. We think “lean & large”, true to the motto “Build Measure Learn” - flexible, agile, collaborative and always focused on creating the best possible experience for users. We only use state-of-the-art AI tools that do justice to a human-centered “human-in-the-loop” approach.

01

Targeted inventory & business impact

We analyse your existing software landscape and specifically identify the areas in which you can realise the greatest added value - for example through cost reductions, higher performance or faster time-to-market.

UX Research

We analyze the needs of your users in various application scenarios, based on interviews and usability tests, and then prioritize the features that meet core needs over features that are only “nice-to-have”.

02
03

UX & UI Design

Based on the prioritised features, we develop modernised operating concepts and present them in an appealing and contemporary UI design.

Prototyp & Roadmap

With the modernised UX & UI design in mind, we create a proof of concept to make the planned improvements tangible. We then develop a clear project roadmap that is aligned with business goals and profitability from the outset.

05

Modernisation without downtime

With proven migration methods and intelligent architectures, we ensure that your systems remain available at all times. Thanks to our iterative approach, you benefit from initial results during the project - without interrupting your day-to-day business.

Frequently asked questions

We create digital products with disruptive technologies to fulfill demanding human needs. With UX-optimized software development and human-in-the-loop AI tools, we make the digitalized world of tomorrow a world with less friction & errors and more productivity & joy of use.

UX design (user experience design) deals with the experience that the user has when interacting with a product or service. The aim is to make this experience as pleasant, intuitive and efficient as possible. It is not just about the visual appearance of the interface, but above all about functionality and comprehensibility. Good UX design makes the difference: it inspires, saves time, avoids frustration - and ensures that users are happy to come back and errors in operation are avoided.

Our innovative AI toolchain, our renowned customer base from critical industries and our more than 20 years of expertise provide you with the perfect mix. In particular, our AI-driven tool support with “human-in-the-loop” principles allows us to reduce development costs without compromising on quality and manage large projects with smaller, faster teams.

We are broadly positioned - and that is precisely our strength. Our focus is on sectors such as the automotive industry, energy, education, telecommunications, media, healthcare, logistics, insurance, retail, automation, medicine, industry and many more. Our customers range from innovative start-ups to international corporations, mostly in the B2B sector. Thanks to our experience in a wide variety of fields, we can develop tailor-made solutions - flexible, targeted and always with the user in mind.

The process is very simple and straightforward: First, you send us an inquiry using the contact form on our website - or book an appointment directly using our booking tool. We will then discuss your requirements, wishes and the scope of the project with you without obligation. On this basis, we will create a tailor-made quote and send it to you promptly - clear, transparent and to the point and, of course, negotiable.
