Facts about Obys from their own site and LinkedIn · October 7, 2026
How each company describes itself
Obys
Obys calls itself a “concept-driven design studio based in the EU.” Founded in 2018 by Olha Olianishyna and Viacheslav Olianishyn, it works from Amsterdam, Warsaw, and Berlin and keeps the team under 10 people, with every project led by the founders. Services are creative direction, web design and development, brand identity, 3D, and motion.
The about page lists Awwwards Studio of the Year 2023, Red Dot recognition, and 30+ Awwwards Site of the Day awards. LinkedIn lists 2–10 people. Clients named include CNN, Porsche, Hilton, and Miro.
Humbleteam
We work on short clocks. A B2B banking MVP with ING went from zero to a tested product in 5 days, and a prototype for an AI text-to-video platform took 15 days.
The products are the regulated, data-heavy kind: 56 fintechs and 30+ major banks, 30+ healthtech platforms studied, and a 27-app sports benchmark. We’ve been doing this since 2017, with 200+ projects and 49 people across Prague and Dubai.
Three reasons product-led companies pick us over Obys
Each one matters once the website is live and the product comes next.
Banking MVP user-tested in 5 days
Our fastest record is a B2B banking MVP with ING, taken from zero to a tested product in 5 days. A small-business banking prototype was designed and user-tested in 23 days. On average the first clickable prototype arrives 2 weeks after a signed brief, and AI skills make our app and web work 20–40% faster.
Product UX for regulated categories
Obys lists finance among its industries and leads with brand and web craft. Our depth sits inside the product: KYC, limits, card states, and dispute flows across 56 fintechs and 30+ major banks, plus regulated device states for a digital stethoscope. We test those flows with users before they ship.
A larger senior bench since 2017
We’ve designed products since 2017 and shipped 200+ projects with 49 people in Prague and Dubai. Senior designers average 9 years of experience, so several can work on your product at once. Clutch reviewers give us 4.9 across 35 reviews, and 70% of our clients sign a second project.

When Obys is the better call
Two briefs where their studio is the stronger pick.
An award-level website is the goal
Obys was named Awwwards Studio of the Year in 2023, lists 30+ Site of the Day awards, and holds four CSSDA Studio of the Year titles. For a portfolio-grade site built on typography, grids, and motion, that shelf is hard to beat.
You want the founders on every project
Obys keeps its team under 10 people and says every project is led closely by its two founders. If you want the studio owners personally directing your brand and site, that structure delivers exactly that.

Questions?
Is Humbleteam a good alternative to Obys?
Yes, when the next step after the website is a product. We took a B2B banking MVP from zero to a tested product in 5 days and have shipped 56 fintechs since 2017. Obys is a concept-driven studio founded in 2018, under 10 people, known for award-winning brand and web experiences. For a showcase website, Obys is strong; for an app or platform, we are.
Humbleteam or Obys: who delivers faster?
Our timings are public; Obys’s site lists none. A banking MVP with ING reached a tested product in 5 days, a small-business banking prototype took 23 days, and a signed brief becomes a first clickable prototype in 2 weeks on average. Replies take under 24 hours, and work can start next week.
We need a product as well as a striking website. Which fits?
We do, because we design brand, web, and product in one team. Tinder Black got its brand and UX/UI from us, and Logitech’s app, website, and design system reached production in 4 weeks. 14 of our 80+ design awards come from Awwwards. Obys focuses on creative direction, web design and development, identity, 3D, and motion.
How big is each team, and who does the work?
We have 49 people across two offices, Prague and Dubai, and the work is done by senior designers with 9 years of experience on average, starting with the first call. Obys says its team stays under 10 people, with every project led closely by its two founders; LinkedIn lists 2–10 people. It works from Amsterdam, Warsaw, and Berlin.
How much does each cost, and how soon can we start?
Pricing stays off both websites. Humbleteam offers a fixed-price audit, a scoped implementation, or a monthly retainer, and the estimate follows the first call. We write back within 24 hours, and a project can kick off next week. Obys says it takes a limited number of projects each year and lists an email address for enquiries.
