## How each company describes itself

### Brand Appart

Brand Appart presents itself as a “Design studio for funded startups” that ships brands, conversion-ready websites, and investor decks. Founded in 2021, it describes a fully remote team of 11 people, with services that span brand identity, product design, web design and development, and pitch decks.

It sells fixed-scope projects or an on-demand monthly subscription with requests back in 48 hours. LinkedIn lists 2–10 people in France. Clients on the site include Incard, Forbes, Voodoo, and PMU.

### Humbleteam

Fintech is the category we know best, and it shows in our speed. With ING we took a B2B banking MVP from zero to a tested product in 5 days, and a small-business banking prototype was designed and user-tested in 23 days.

We’ve shipped 56 fintechs and work with 30+ major banks, and 5 YC-backed fintechs have our designers inside their in-house team. Since 2017 we’ve delivered 200+ projects with 49 people in Prague and Dubai, collecting 80+ design awards along the way.

## Why funded fintechs pick us over Brand Appart

Three differences that matter once the money is in the bank.

### Brief to tested product, fast

With ING, a B2B banking MVP went from nothing to tested in 5 days. An AI text-to-video platform had its prototype in 15 days. Across projects, the first clickable prototype arrives 2 weeks after a signed brief on average, and AI skills make our app and web work 20–40% faster.

### Fintech product depth behind the brand

Investors buy the brand story; users and regulators test the product. We design both sides: the identity, plus onboarding, KYC, card states, limits, and dispute flows. That work spans 56 fintechs and 30+ major banks, and 5 YC-backed fintechs keep our design team inside their own.

### 200+ projects since 2017

We’ve designed products since 2017 and shipped 200+ projects, with 18 published case studies. Our Clutch rating is 4.9 across 35 reviews, and our 80+ design awards include 14 Awwwards wins. Senior designers on our projects average 9 years of experience, and 70% of clients return for a second project.

## When Brand Appart is the better call

Two founder needs their offer is built around.

### The investor deck is the bottleneck

Brand Appart lists pitch deck design as a core service, with decks written to be pitched in 5 minutes or read solo. If your round closes in weeks and the deck is what’s missing, their offer targets that exact need.

### You want a flat monthly subscription

Brand Appart sells an on-demand plan sized by days per month, with requests back in 48 hours and 30 days’ notice to cancel. For a steady stream of small requests at a predictable monthly cost, that format fits.

## Our fintech record

- **56** fintechs shipped (plus 30+ major banks)

Brand Appart publishes a 48-hour turnaround per request on its subscription, which measures single requests. New enquiries hear back from us within 24 hours.

### Which is better for a fintech startup after a raise?

We are, because the next milestone after a raise is usually a product that passes compliance and keeps users.

We respond within 24 hours, and work can start next week. Brand Appart sells fixed-scope projects or a monthly on-demand plan sized by days, and its pricing page explains how each is priced.
