About this service

Summary

A complete MVP launch package that includes product UX/UI design, brand identity, and a launch landing page built in Framer. All designed to attract users, validate your idea, and impress investors from day one.
I help early-stage startups design and launch products that feel refined, cohesive, and credible from the product experience to the brand identity and launch page. Everything is built to tell your story, show traction, and look fundable.
I work as a design partner, not just a designer. I dive deep into your vision, taking full ownership to bring it to life with precision and speed.

Process

Kickoff call: We’ll discuss your vision, goals, users, business model, and overall strategy to ensure alignment across product, brand, and marketing.
Research: I’ll review your product idea, competitors, and audience to identify opportunities for differentiation. This phase sets the foundation for both the product experience and brand story.
Brand Identity Design: I’ll define your startup’s personality through logo, color palette, typography, tone & voice, and visual complements. I will present it with a Brand Presentation PDF.
UI Library: I’ll define the color variables and type scales following your brand, which will be included in the Figma file. I will make any necessary adjustments to ensure the app styles meet both design and usability best practices.
Mobile UX/UI design: I’ll create a Figma file with high-quality, pixel-perfect screen designs for every user interaction.
Desktop UX/UI design (if it’s a web app or an app available on iPad)
Developer’s handoff: The Figma file will be organized by sections, layers, and frames, with appropriately named elements. Using style guides and reusable components. Every screen will be labeled as “Ready for Development”. I’ll also provide access to the FigJam file with the user flows.
Landing page design: I’ll create a high-converting landing page design in Figma, focused on communicating your product’s value, capturing leads, and building trust. The design will include visual storytelling, copy direction, responsive layouts, and conversion-focused structure ready for development.
Landing Page Development (Framer): I’ll develop your landing page directly in Framer, ensuring pixel-perfect execution, responsive behavior, and smooth animations. Forms, CTAs, or integrations (such as signup or waitlist) will be implemented, making your landing page fully functional and launch-ready.
Design QA (Post-launch): I’ll follow up during implementation and after launch, reviewing the final product, landing page, and brand materials to ensure consistency and quality. I’ll respond to developer or team questions and provide detailed feedback on any necessary adjustments before and after the product goes live.

FAQs

  • For whom is this service? / What’s your typical client?

    I work mainly with early- and growth-stage tech startups preparing to launch their first product or MVP. Most of my clients need a complete and cohesive design foundation, product UX/UI, brand identity, and launch landing page, which makes them look credible to users, investors, and accelerators like YC.

  • How do you manage communication?

    I adapt to your preferred tools, Slack, email, Notion, or any project management platform you already use. I provide regular updates, share progress in real time, and keep the process transparent so you always know where things stand.

  • Can you integrate with our dev team?

    Definitely, I provide clean, organized Figma files for developer handoff. I will work closely with your developers, whether they are in-house, freelance, or from a third-party agency, to ensure designs are implemented exactly as intended.

  • Can you work in our time zone?

    I usually work in Eastern Time (EST) and can easily adjust to Pacific Time (PST) or other US time zones. I’ve worked with fully remote teams across multiple time zones without any issue.

Nico rocked it for referrals that we sent him! We constantly get leads for website design and I never had a place to send them. Now, with ease, I am able to introduce anyone to Nico with confidence that he will do a terrific job. The best part is that Nico is more than a web designer ... he's a partner! He is NOT just an order taker. He uses his expertise to guide people into better design choices.

I highly recommend Nico for web, brand, or product design. Nico played a key role in the branding of Portalys, quickly understanding our vision and presenting spot-on options. Once we chose a direction, he refined it to perfection. On the product side, Nico’s quick iterations based on feedback and his ability to create intuitive wireframes have greatly improved our development process. Any team would be lucky to work with him!

I've been working with Nico for over two years now. We connected over a design service, to build my brands identity. Within 2 weeks we had the highest quality brand template my eyes had ever seen. And not even three weeks after I reached out to Nico letting him know I want to work with him for as long as possible. He possesses exceptional initiative, leadership and creative skills that always show in his work. He's cheaper, provides significantly higher quality and with Nico it's guaranteed.

Nico gets it. He's fast, professional, and always over-delivers. As a designer myself, I can tell he holds himself to a high design standard. I recommend him every time.
