How each company is described
Work & Co
Work & Co is a global design and technology company founded in 2013 and based in Brooklyn. It has over 425 people across the United States, Europe, and Latin America, and it has built digital products for clients including Apple, IKEA, Aesop, Nike, and PGA TOUR.
Accenture acquired it in 2024, adding close to 400 people to Accenture Song — the figure comes from Accenture’s own newsroom. Its work has been recognized by Fast Company’s Innovation by Design Awards, Time’s Best Inventions, and the CES Innovation Awards.
Humbleteam
We are 49 people in Prague and Dubai, and the whole company is the delivery team. Our record: 18 published cases, 64 projects, 80+ design awards, 30+ major banks, and 56 fintechs.
Our other service is AI agents installed inside your design team, in your accounts. They take handoff, resizing, asset production, design QA, and design-to-code, with human review before merge.
Three reasons teams pick us over Work & Co
All three come down to size.
The people who pitch are the people who deliver
At 49 people there is no bench to rotate. You meet the design lead who will run your project and the founders who answer for it.
A faster start
There is no enterprise procurement and no master services agreement to negotiate. One call, then a fixed-price audit that can start within days.
AI agents installed in your team
We install agents inside your own design team, on your billing. They take handoff, resizing, asset production, design QA, and design-to-code, and they keep running after the engagement ends.

When Work & Co is the better call
Three programs where their size is the point.
A multi-market platform with hundreds of screens
Rebuilding commerce for a global retailer across markets and languages takes many teams working in parallel on one system. They have that capacity in house. We would have to staff up for it.
Design and systems integration in one contract
Inside Accenture Song, design sits next to the technology and delivery arms. If your program depends on ERP, CRM, or a large migration, one accountable group beats three vendors.
Procurement requires a group of that size
Some enterprises cannot contract a 49-person supplier for a strategic program. If procurement requires scale, they qualify and we do not.

Questions?
Is Work & Co still independent?
No. Accenture agreed to acquire Work & Co in January 2024 and completed the deal the same year. Work & Co now sits inside Accenture Song, and Accenture’s newsroom puts the addition at nearly 400 people.
Can a 49-person company deliver an enterprise program?
Yes, for a single product with one design system. Acronis protects 750,000 businesses, and we run both its summit brand and its web and mobile experience. A multi-market platform that needs several teams in parallel, plus systems integration, is a better fit for a group of their size.
What do we get from you that a large group cannot offer?
Direct access and installed capability. The design lead on your project is the person you met, and the founders answer for the result. The engagement can also leave AI agents running in your own accounts after we stop: handoff, resizing, asset production, design QA, and design-to-code.
How fast can each of you start?
We start in days: one call, then a fixed-price audit, with no master services agreement. A program inside a global consulting group usually starts with procurement. That timeline depends more on your organization than on them.
