FAQs

  • How long does the audit usually take?

    Most Tier 2 audits are completed within 7–10 business days after receiving access to your site or product. I’ll provide a detailed project timeline at kickoff based on the final scope.

  • What’s the difference between Tier 1 and Tier 2 audits?

    Tier 2 covers 2–3 user flows or up to 8 screens, providing a deeper, more comprehensive review of your product. It also includes a video walkthrough to make sharing insights across your team even easier.

  • Does this audit include redesigned screens or user flows?

    No—this service focuses on expert analysis and actionable recommendations. If you’re interested in a full UX redesign or additional design support, I’d be happy to discuss options for working together.

  • Can you include competitor or user flow comparisons?

    Yes! Competitor or user flow comparisons are available as an add-on service. We can explore how your product stacks up against others and identify strategic opportunities for improvement.
