Facts about Fantasy from their own site and LinkedIn · October 7, 2026
How each company describes itself
Fantasy
Fantasy calls itself an “AI-Native Digital Product Design Agency” and says it has worked with partners for 25 years. Its services page groups the work into Digital Products, Brand Experiences, and Intelligent Systems, with strategy, design, and full-stack engineering in one team.
The site names Nike, Google, BNY, and LIV Golf among its clients and lists 12 industries, from robotics to financial services. Its careers page describes a remote-first culture. LinkedIn puts the company at 51–200 people, based in the United States.
Humbleteam
Speed is the word that recurs in our 35 Clutch reviews, and the record backs it: a tested B2B banking product for ING Amsterdam in 5 days, and a Logitech desk-booking app, website, and design system in production in 4 weeks.
Depth comes next. We’ve shipped 56 fintechs, work with 30+ major banks, and rerun a benchmark of 27 sports apps every four weeks. From Prague and Dubai, our 49 people have delivered 200+ projects since 2017, led by senior designers with 9 years of experience on average.
Three reasons teams choose us over Fantasy
Each one is something you can check before you sign.
5 days to a tested banking MVP
For ING Amsterdam, a B2B banking MVP went from nothing to a tested product in 5 days. Typical projects put a clickable prototype in your hands 2 weeks after the brief is signed. We reply to a new enquiry within 24 hours, a project can start next week, and AI skills make our app and web work 20–40% faster.
Fintech and sport, studied in depth
Fantasy lists financial services and sports among 12 industries. For us they are the core of the portfolio. We’ve shipped 56 fintechs, work with 30+ major banks, and know the KYC, limit, and dispute screens that regulators read. In sport, we rerun a benchmark of 27 sports apps every four weeks, so fan flows start from current data.
Senior designers with 200+ projects behind them
Our senior designers average 9 years of experience, and the people on your first call stay on the work. The record since 2017: 200+ projects and 80+ design awards, 14 of them from Awwwards. Our Clutch rating stands at 4.9 across 35 reviews, and 70% of clients hire us again.

When Fantasy is the better call
Two briefs that suit Fantasy’s model.
You want engineering in the same team
Fantasy’s site says strategy, design, and full-stack engineering sit in one team that ships production code. If one vendor has to build and run the platform after launch, that setup fits.
A 25-year record decides the shortlist
Their site states 25 years of work and says almost all of Forbes’ Top 10 most valuable brands have hired them. If that history is the deciding factor, Fantasy has the longer record.
