A monthly retainer for SaaS teams covering product design, the design system and the frontend that ships it. I start in week one and work at your team's pace. This is the same job I do day to day for one of the biggest restaurant SaaS companies in Europe.
A retainer earns its keep when the product is alive and there's design work every month. For a one-off project, look at the MVP or website modernization offer instead.
The product keeps growing while developers design screens between tickets. Every new view looks slightly different, and the UX starts costing you in sales calls and support tickets. What's missing is someone who owns design, not another backlog item.
The first version works and people pay for it. Now the UX needs sorting and a design system needs building, before the design debt turns into a rewrite nobody budgeted for.
Marketing waits on a developer, the product waits on a designer, and you're managing three vendors to make it happen. Here one person runs both ends of the SaaS, on one rhythm and one design system.
Not a bucket of hours, and not unlimited requests. A steady rhythm with rules you can sustain for a year, leaving assets behind every month.
You set the order and I keep 1 or 2 tasks active at a time, each one taken to shipped code before the next starts. Nothing sits half-finished.
One 30-minute sync a week plus async Slack, with replies inside 24 hours on business days. No status updates written for the sake of having written one.
Components, tokens and documentation stay yours. Each month makes the product more consistent and the next change cheaper.
I design in Figma and then write the frontend in your codebase, so you're not paying a second time to turn a mockup into something real.
Results reviewed monthly, UX roadmap set quarterly. You get someone arguing about priorities with you, not just a pair of hands.
Pause or stop with a month's notice, and every file, doc and access token comes with you.
I work alone and hold at most 2 or 3 retainers at once. For comparison, a senior product designer on staff costs €4,200-€6,500 a month, takes 2 to 3 months to hire, and still won't write your frontend.
Ongoing product design that ends in shipped code. For a SaaS that needs someone owning design.
Both ends of the SaaS handled together: the product and the marketing site on one rhythm.
Where you land in the range depends on the scale of the product and how much shipped work it needs. Simple websites on a monthly model aren't part of this offer; sitely.pl covers those.
Two or three sentences about your product and where design hurts most. I reply myself, within 24 hours.
