window.FAQS = [
{
q: "What's included in my monthly hours?",
a: "Your hours cover design and creative work across the full scope of your product: UI/UX, web design, brand identity, marketing materials, presentations, content for the site, and light prototyping or vibe-coding for quick solutions. At the start of each month we plan together what fits into your hours and what moves to the next. Anything outside this scope, such as mobile or web development, 3D, and motion graphics, is handled through our partner network and scoped separately.",
},
{
q: "What happens if I don't use all my hours in a month?",
a: "Unused hours don't roll over. Your retainer reserves a dedicated team for you every month: a designer who knows your product, an Art Director, and a Project Manager. That capacity is held for you regardless of how much work comes in. If a month is quieter, we use the time to improve existing work, refine the design system, or prepare for the next sprint.",
},
{
q: "Can I pause or cancel my retainer?",
a: "Yes, you can pause. Your retainer is a commitment for a fixed term: 1, 3, or 6 months. If you need to cancel early, the remaining commitment is recalculated at the 1-month rate.",
},
{
q: "What if my designer gets sick or goes on vacation?",
a: "You won't notice. If your designer is unavailable, another team member who already knows your product steps in. If needed, we bring in an additional designer from our team and onboard them quickly on our side. The context stays inside the studio, not inside one person. For you it's seamless.",
},
{
q: "How does the kick-off work?",
a: "We spend the first week going deep on your product before any design work starts. We study your existing flows, talk to your team, review user feedback if available, and map what's working and what isn't. The output is a prioritized plan for the first month: what we tackle first, what moves to month two, and what needs more research. If you're starting from scratch, we help define the vision and break it into a concrete roadmap. Either way, you know exactly what's happening before we touch a single screen.",
},
{
q: "What does a typical month look like?",
a: "Week one is onboarding: we go deep on your product, ask the hard questions, and show you first concepts and hypotheses. From week two we move into weekly sprints: Monday we plan together, Friday we show results. Mid-month sync to check priorities and adjust if needed. Throughout the month we communicate as one team: daily async updates, a few check-ins per week, and a monthly recap of what shipped and what's next. You always know where things stand.",
},
{
q: "In what time zone do you work?",
a: "We're based in Kyiv (EET, UTC+2/+3) and work 10am to 6pm. For European clients the overlap is seamless. For US clients we schedule syncs in the early morning your time: 9–10am EST works well for us and fits naturally into your day. Async communication via Slack and Loom covers the rest, so you always wake up to updates and progress.",
},
{
q: "How long does it take to get started?",
a: "Usually one week from the moment we agree on the plan. That week covers contract signing, NDA, and team assignment. Once we receive the first payment, your team is reserved and kick-off is scheduled. The faster you move on paperwork, the faster we start.",
},
{
q: "Do you sign NDAs?",
a: "Yes. We sign NDAs as a standard part of every engagement, and our internal team members are bound by confidentiality agreements as well. We do ask that any NDA preserves our right to showcase the work in our portfolio and on social media. We also don't accept clauses that restrict us from working with companies in adjacent spaces. All details are reviewed and agreed at the contract stage.",
},
{
q: "What's your minimum commitment?",
a: "The minimum commitment is one month. If you want to see how we work before committing, we offer a one-week trial: a real sprint with your product, real deliverables, real team. After that you decide if you want to continue.",
},
{
q: "What kind of products do you specialize in?",
a: "We work best on complex digital products: B2B SaaS dashboards, multi-step onboarding flows, analytics platforms, HealthTech, FinTech, and EdTech interfaces. Products where design decisions have real consequences for conversion, retention, and user trust. If your product has a backlog full of flows, edge cases, and system logic — that's where we do our best work.",
},
{
q: "Do you work with specific industries?",
a: "Our deepest experience is in SaaS (B2B and B2C), HealthTech (Zeuss — 5 years ongoing), and enterprise platforms (Umami View — 15 interconnected apps). We also work with Web3 infrastructure, GameDev, and IT services companies. If your product involves complex UI and real users who depend on it working well, we're a fit.",
