UX design services for startups and growing businesses
We design websites, web apps, and digital products that people find easy to use, and that bring in more sign-ups, sales, and enquiries. We work with startups and growing businesses in Finland and abroad.
The problem with most UI/UX design
A lot of businesses spend money on design and still end up with something that underperforms. A website that looks great in mockups but confuses real visitors. An app that loses users before they do anything useful. A landing page that gets traffic but no sign-ups.
The problem is rarely how it looks. It's decisions made without knowing how real users think and move around. Good UI/UX isn't decoration. It decides whether people can use the thing at all.
At Wauu! Creative we research before we design, test before we hand over, and check in with you the whole way. The result is something your users find easy and your business can measure.
Built for both products and the web
We work on websites, landing pages, web apps, and digital products. Startup launching a first product, business fixing a site that isn't performing, company building an internal tool: the process is the same. Understand the user, define the problem, then design the solution.
Most of our clients are startups and smaller companies in Finland and abroad that need design done properly without hiring a big team. You get a small, dedicated team that treats your project as a business problem, not a visual exercise.
What a UI/UX project with us usually looks like
One focused project or a long-term partnership, the goal is the same: a product people understand straight away and like using.
Wireframes and user flows
Before we touch colours or fonts, we map out the structure of every key screen. Rough wireframes let us test layouts and flow early, so expensive changes happen on paper instead of in code, and you get something concrete to react to.
Full user interface design
Once the structure is agreed, we move into visual design: type, colour, spacing, and every state a screen can be in. It's built around your brand and your users, not a generic UI kit.
Design systems and style guides
Alongside the UI we build a documented design system: components, colours, type, spacing, and interaction patterns. Developers stay consistent, new features look like they belong, and you avoid a lot of rework later.
Ongoing collaboration
For products that keep evolving, we can stay on as an ongoing design partner. We design new features, run design reviews, and keep the design system up to date as the product grows.
What we can help with
Pick one or combine a few. Most projects use several of these.
User research
We find out how your users behave and what your business needs, so design decisions are based on evidence, not guesses.
Information Architecture (IA)
We organise your content with sitemaps and clear labels so people can find what they're looking for.
Wireframes & user flows
Layouts and user flows that let us sort out structure and usability before any code is written.
Visual (UI) design
Polished interfaces that fit your brand and look good on every screen.
Usability testing
On request, we watch real users try your product, find where they get stuck, and fix it.
Design systems
A shared library of components that keeps the product consistent and speeds up future development.
UX audit
We review your product, find what's hurting conversion and retention, and give you a clear list of fixes.
Mobile & web app
Fast, consistent experiences across desktop, iOS, and Android.
UI/UX design, by the hour or by the project
Need help with your app, website, or a specific user flow? Book us by the hour, or ask for a fixed quote on a defined project.
Starting from €75 / hour
Hourly works best for open-ended or ongoing work. For a clearly defined project, we'll give you a fixed price.
Startups, SaaS teams, and growing businesses that need ongoing UI/UX help on products, MVPs, or complicated user flows. Also works for a defined project, from first research to developer-ready files.
Our UI/UX design process
Six steps from the first conversation to developer handoff.
Discovery
We get to know your business goals, talk to the people involved, and look at what competitors are doing. From that we define who the users are and what the project needs.
Structure
We map out sitemaps and user flows so navigation makes sense and the most important content is easy to find.
Wireframes
Simple layouts of every screen, focused on function rather than looks. They're quick to change, so we can work out the core experience before anything gets polished.
Design
We apply your visual identity to the wireframes: typography, colour, imagery, and the details that make it feel finished.
Validation
We review the designs with you and your team, check every key flow, and fix anything unclear before handoff. If the project needs it, we also test with real users.
Launch
Developers get the design system, documented components, and every asset they need, so the build goes smoothly.

UI/UX questions
The things people usually ask about our UI/UX work.
UI is how a product looks: the screens, buttons, and type. UX is how it works: the structure, the flows, and how easy it is to get things done.
Usually when users get confused, conversions drop, or the product has grown so many features that it's hard to use.
Yes. You can work with us monthly as part of your team. It suits companies that need UI/UX help without hiring someone in-house.
Yes. We often improve existing products by fixing interfaces and user flows. You don't need a full rebuild to see a difference.
By whether people get through key tasks more easily: clearer paths, more completed tasks, and better feedback from users and your own team.
