Humbleteam
For us a brand counts when it ships inside a working product. Our team put a desk-booking app, website, and design system for Logitech into production in 4 weeks, and the average brief reaches a clickable prototype in 2 weeks.
Humbleteam runs on 49 people across Prague and Dubai. We design the brand and the UX/UI together, most deeply for fintech, sport, healthtech, and AI products, with 56 fintechs and 30+ major banks shipped. Since 2017 that adds up to 200+ projects and 80+ design awards.
Three reasons teams pick us over Kurppa Hosk
They come down to how fast the brand reaches users, and how much product work sits behind it.
Live in production within weeks
The Logitech desk-booking app shipped to production in 4 weeks, together with its website and design system. An ING Amsterdam B2B banking MVP needed 5 days to go from zero to tested. We reply to a new enquiry within 24 hours, a project can start next week, and AI skills make our app and web design 20–40% faster.
Brand and product in one system
We design the identity, the UX/UI, and the design system as one piece of work, so type, color, and components carry straight into the product. That is how we work for fintechs, where we have shipped 56 products and worked with 30+ major banks, and for consumer apps such as Tinder’s sister app, Tinder Black.
Senior designers you can reach
The senior designers on a Humbleteam project average 9 years of experience, and they are the people on your first call. Since 2017 we have shipped 200+ projects and won 80+ design awards, including Red Dot, Webby, and 14 Awwwards wins. Across 35 Clutch reviews, clients give us 4.9.

When Kurppa Hosk is the better call
Two briefs where their setup fits better.
A corporate brand across many markets
Kurppa Hosk lists governance and activation as services, and its offices span Stockholm, Oslo, London, New York, and Chicago. A group rebrand rolled out to many countries and business units suits that structure.
A custom typeface for the brand
The agency runs its own type foundry, KH Type, which offers retail and bespoke typefaces. If a proprietary font is central to the brief, that in-house foundry is a clear advantage.

Questions?
Is Humbleteam a good alternative to Kurppa Hosk?
Yes, when the brand has to live inside an app or platform soon. We designed Logitech’s desk-booking app, website, and design system and had them in production in 4 weeks. Kurppa Hosk is a brand agency with 200+ people across five offices, and its site centers on brand strategy, identity, activation, and governance for large companies such as Scania and Zalando.
Humbleteam or Kurppa Hosk: who delivers faster?
Humbleteam publishes its delivery times, and Kurppa Hosk’s site does not. We took a B2B banking MVP with ING Amsterdam from zero to a tested product in 5 days, and the average Humbleteam brief reaches a first clickable prototype in 2 weeks. New enquiries hear from us within 24 hours, with a possible start the following week.
Who is better for a brand plus a digital product?
Humbleteam, if the product is the main place customers meet the brand. We draw the identity, the UX/UI, and the design system together, which is how we approached One Bank, an all-in-one banking platform. Kurppa Hosk lists experience design, from apps to spatial design, as one stage in a brand program that starts with insight and strategy.
How big is each team, and who does the work?
Humbleteam is a 49-person team in Prague and Dubai whose senior designers average 9 years of experience. Kurppa Hosk’s site says it has 200+ people in Stockholm, Oslo, London, New York, and Chicago, and LinkedIn lists 201–500 employees. At Humbleteam the designers on your first call are the ones who do the work.
How much does each cost, and how soon can we start?
Neither agency publishes prices. Humbleteam prices work as a fixed-price audit, a scoped implementation, or a monthly retainer, and puts a number on it during the first call. Brand-plus-product projects with us can start next week, and enquiries get an answer within 24 hours. Kurppa Hosk’s site names a new-business contact and a branding email and does not publish engagement models or start times.
