Strict selection
We hire only people who are strong in product thinking. Most candidates don’t make the cut.
The foundation is there, but the experience needs more thinking before it’s ready for the market. We turn your idea or early build into an MVP people understand, developers can build fast, and investors take seriously.
Drag across the screen to compare a raw first build with the MVP redesign. Same scope, just structured, clear, and ready to put in front of users and investors.


Every MVP has a trigger for design help. Here are the situations we see most, and what we do about each one.
You shipped something clickable to prove the idea, maybe with AI-generated screens or a template. It demos fine, but real users get lost. We improve the flow so the core job is obvious the first time someone tries it.
You know the problem you’re solving; the product shape is still fuzzy. We turn the concept into concrete screens that match what your users already expect from a product like yours.
The functionality is real. The interface makes it look like a weekend project. We give the MVP a clean, credible UI so it holds up in a pitch and in a first onboarding.
Engineering time is your scarcest resource pre-PMF. We validate flows with clickable prototypes and testing before a line of production code, so you don’t build the wrong screen twice.
Without a structure built to grow, each new idea just bolts on. We set up a simple, scalable design system so the MVP can add features without collapsing into clutter.
Preparing for a funding round or a first cohort of users, the product has to make the case on its own. We design for clarity, trust, and that critical first impression, so people get it before you explain it.
The expertise of a product partner. The flexibility to work your way. Here’s what that means in practice.
Outsourcing vendors run a one-size process that doesn’t fit a startup still finding its shape.
You get a dedicated designer who plugs into your team like an early in-house hire.
Building an MVP is already full of unknowns. The team shaping it shouldn’t be one of them. Everyone on your MVP is part of Augment and trained in how we work, so quality stays consistent.
We hire only people who are strong in product thinking. Most candidates don’t make the cut.
Everyone on your product communicates fluently in English. No middlemen.
Every project gets senior-level oversight from our Head of Design.
Every newcomer gets 3 months of training before their first client project.
We tailor the approach to where you are. For most founders it comes down to one of two paths.
You already have a working build. We improve the flow, clarity, and UI in place, keeping what works while making the core job obvious and the product demo-ready.
There’s an idea and not much else. We take it from discovery through wireframes to a polished, testable MVP that reflects your brand and holds up with users and investors.
