Bad UX costs time. In emergencies, time costs lives.

Who we are
Better* is a small, senior design studio for hard UX problems. Since 2010 we’ve worked on complex products with few ready-made patterns; we’re built for tight constraints and real-world messiness.
Engagement models: fixed‑scope SOW, monthly retainer, or day‑rate advisory.
Core strengths
Research & discovery
Complex IA
Interaction & copy
Prototyping & testing
Clean handover
