How each company describes itself
Nice and Serious
Nice and Serious calls itself “a purpose-driven creative agency partnering with brands and charities” that want a positive impact. It is a Certified B Corp and a London Living Wage employer, and every brief passes a vote through a tool it calls the Moral Compass. Its services are branding, campaigns, and content, including film production and animation.
The agency says it has worked this way since 2008, from a studio near Tower Bridge in London. LinkedIn lists 11–50 employees. Work shown includes Fairtrade, Vodafone, Wellcome Collection, and Penguin Random House.
Humbleteam
Write to us today and you hear back within 24 hours; the project can start next week. From there the timelines are short: a B2B banking MVP with ING Amsterdam reached a tested product in 5 days, and a signed brief gets a clickable prototype in 2 weeks on average.
Our 49 people in Prague and Dubai design apps and platforms. We have shipped 56 fintechs, studied 30+ healthtech platforms, delivered 200+ projects since 2017, and won 80+ design awards.
Three reasons teams pick us over Nice and Serious
Each one matters when the deliverable is a working product.
A reply tomorrow, work next week
Every new enquiry gets a reply within 24 hours, and a project can start the following week. A B2B banking MVP with ING Amsterdam went from zero to a tested product in 5 days, and Logitech had an app, website, and design system in production in 4 weeks. AI skills make our work 20–40% faster.
Apps and platforms are the core
Product UX/UI, design systems, and mobile apps are our main services, backed by research. We have shipped 56 fintechs, work with 30+ major banks, and studied 30+ healthtech platforms, so regulated flows like KYC, consent, and device states are routine. Eko Health and Luna Ring are on our work page.
Senior people, start to finish
The 49 people in our team are the ones who do the work, and the senior designers on a project average 9 years of experience. Since 2017 we have delivered 200+ projects and won 80+ design awards. Clients rate us 4.9 on Clutch across 35 reviews, and 70% of them return for a second project.

Questions?
Is Humbleteam a good alternative to Nice and Serious?
Yes, when the deliverable is an app, platform, or product website. We reply within 24 hours, start projects the following week, and took a B2B banking MVP with ING to a tested product in 5 days. Nice and Serious is a London creative agency and Certified B Corp making brands, campaigns, and films for purpose-led organizations since 2008.
Humbleteam or Nice and Serious: who delivers faster?
We publish dated timelines, and Nice and Serious does not. Ours: 5 days to a tested banking MVP with ING, 23 days to a user-tested small-business banking prototype, and 4 weeks for Logitech’s app, website, and design system to reach production. A signed brief reaches a clickable prototype in 2 weeks on average, and every enquiry gets a reply within 24 hours.
Which one fits a health or impact startup building an app?
We do, for the product itself. We studied 30+ healthtech platforms for our research, designed Eko Health’s regulated device states and the Luna Ring app, and shipped 56 fintechs with consent and KYC flows. Nice and Serious shows health campaigns such as Bowel Cancer UK. If you need the campaign around the app, they make that.
How big is each team, and who does the work?
We are 49 people in Prague and Dubai, and the senior designers on your first call do the work, averaging 9 years of experience. LinkedIn lists Nice and Serious at 11–50 employees, and its site describes a mix of thinkers, creators, and makers in London. Ask each agency who will work on your project every week.
How much does each cost, and how soon can we start?
Neither company publishes prices. We quote a fixed-price audit, a scoped implementation, or a monthly retainer on the first call, reply within 24 hours, and can start next week. Nice and Serious lists a contact email and says its team votes on each new brief through its Moral Compass, so ask them how long that takes.
