## How each company describes itself

### Red Antler

Red Antler’s home page says “We partner with rule-breakers and future-makers.” Its about page lists three practices: foundation and strategy, branding (identity, UX, apps and product design, engineering), and advertising. The wider Red Antler Group adds Fat Earth for performance marketing and Wild Fruit for presentation design.

The company says it was founded in 2007 and is based in New York. Clients shown include Hinge, AllTrails, Ramp, and Chime, and an AI page covers branding for companies such as Figure and Pika. LinkedIn places the company in the United States with 51–200 employees.

### Humbleteam

Fintech is where we have the most miles: 56 fintechs and 30+ major banks, and 5 YC-backed fintechs keep our designers inside their in-house team. That depth moves fast. We took one ING banking MVP from zero to tested in 5 days.

Our 49 people sit in Prague and Dubai and cover European and Gulf hours. Since 2017 we have shipped 200+ projects, collected 80+ design awards including 14 Awwwards wins, and earned 4.9 on Clutch across 35 reviews.

## Three reasons fintech teams pick us over Red Antler

All three show up on the screens your customers use to move money.

### From brief to tested banking product

Our record for a banking product is 5 days from zero to a tested MVP with ING in Amsterdam. A small-business banking prototype for ING took 23 days, including user tests. Most briefs reach a first clickable prototype in 2 weeks, and we answer new enquiries within 24 hours.

### Regulated flows are our daily work

KYC, limits, card states, failed payments, and disputes are screens we know in detail. They come from 56 fintechs and 30+ major banks, from Chuck and One Bank to Zavopay and Deserve. For in-house teams, we also set up AI agents that take handoff, QA, and design-to-code drafts.

### Senior designers who come back

70% of our clients return for a second project, and the senior designers on their teams average 9 years of experience. The people on the first call do the work from start to handoff. Since 2017 that model has carried 200+ projects and a 4.9 Clutch rating across 35 reviews.

## When Red Antler is the better call

Two briefs that match their setup.

### Brand launch plus paid media

Red Antler runs an advertising practice, and its group includes Fat Earth for performance marketing and media. If the brand and the paid campaign must come from one group, they cover both sides.

### A consumer brand before launch

Their clients page describes a dedicated pre-launch team that works directly with founders on new ideas, with naming listed among the services. A consumer brand named and launched from New York fits that setup.

## Fintech depth, in numbers

- **56** fintechs designed for (plus 30+ major banks)
- **5** YC-backed fintechs (with our designers in their in-house team)

## Questions and answers

### Is Humbleteam a good alternative to Red Antler?

Yes, especially for a fintech product. Our fintech book holds 56 fintechs and 30+ major banks, and an ING banking MVP reached a tested product in 5 days. Red Antler builds brands and campaigns for startups and category leaders, with Ramp and Chime among its clients, and adds performance marketing through its group. For the regulated product itself, our record is deeper.

### Humbleteam or Red Antler: who delivers faster?

We publish delivery times, and Red Antler’s site does not. Our record: a tested banking MVP in 5 days, a user-tested small-business banking prototype in 23 days, and Logitech’s desk-booking app in production in 4 weeks. Briefs reach a first clickable prototype in 2 weeks on average, and AI skills make our app and web work 20–40% faster.

### Which team is stronger for a regulated fintech app?

We are. 56 fintechs and 30+ banks have given us patterns for KYC failures, limits, card freezes, and disputes, and 5 YC-backed fintechs keep our designers inside their in-house team. Red Antler shows fintech brand work for Ramp and Chime. On the first call, ask each team to show a failed-payment state they shipped.

### How big is each team, and who does the work?

Our team is 49 people in Prague and Dubai, and your project is run by the senior designers from the first call, who average 9 years of experience. Red Antler lists 51–200 employees on LinkedIn and names its leadership on its about page. Their site does not say how project teams are staffed.

### How much does each cost, and how soon can we start?

No price list is public from either agency. Work is scoped as a fixed-price audit, an implementation project, or a monthly retainer, with numbers given on the first call. A reply arrives within 24 hours, and next week is a realistic start. Red Antler’s site offers a contact page and does not publish pricing or start times.
