## How each company describes itself

### Merge Rocks

Merge Rocks calls itself a “Product, brand, and web UX design agency for B2B, SaaS, and Fintech.” Its services run from UX discovery, MVP development, and design sprints to front-end, Webflow, and Web3 product work. The pricing page offers a design sprint, an on-demand team billed monthly, and fixed-price projects.

The about page says the company started in 2018 and counts 30+ team members and 100+ clients backed. LinkedIn lists 11–50 employees in Estonia. Clients named include Mural, Owkin, Restream, and CoinLedger.

### Humbleteam

Our fastest published result is 5 days: a B2B banking MVP with ING Amsterdam, from zero to a tested product. A small-business banking prototype for ING followed in 23 days, designed and user-tested.

Banks and fintechs are the core of that record: 56 fintechs and 30+ major banks, and 5 YC-backed fintechs with our design team inside their own. We have worked since 2017 from Prague and Dubai, with 200+ projects, 80+ design awards, and 14 Awwwards wins among them.
