Bad design is costing you users, trust, and money

Sound familiar?

Visitors land on your site and leave without signing up.
You have to explain your product before people take it seriously.
Users get confused during onboarding and drop off.

What changes when we step in

Your website converts because the flow is clear and the design earns trust on sight.
Your product looks like it's backed by a serious team, because it is.
Users get it on their own, no walkthrough needed.
Alkera

Alkera: a full brand identity in two weeks, ahead of a YC launch.

We built Alkera's brand identity, from logo to a finished guideline, in a fixed two-week sprint. The system shipped in time for their public launch as part of Y Combinator's Summer 2026 batch.

From booking to first delivery in 48 hours

Every engagement is led by me, Razvan. I think through your product with you and review everything before it ships.

1. Book a call

We talk through your product, your goals, and what matters most right now.

2. We set up your Slack channel

You get a private Slack channel. Send briefs however you like: a Loom, a doc, a quick message.

3. Work starts immediately

Our senior team gets to work. You see progress every other business day, and I review every piece before it reaches you.

4. Adjust as you go

Shift from product to web to motion whenever priorities change. Pause, scale up, or cancel anytime.

Everything you need, one team

Product, web, brand, development, and motion, all in one retainer. Spend the month on one area or mix all five.

Product Design

Interfaces that turn confusing flows into something users understand, from early wireframes to screens ready for engineering.

Razvan Badea

Hey, I'm Razvan.

I've been designing since I was 11. In nine-plus years professionally I've worked with founders from day one, helped them raise from top-tier VCs, and led product as Head of Product at Humble, a startup backed by some of Silicon Valley's biggest names.

I started Artone because too many teams were getting design output with no one thinking about the product behind it. Here, your design partner is also your product partner: I help you decide what to build, push back when needed, and make sure every screen, page, and brand decision serves the business.

You work with me directly, not a queue. If that sounds right, let's talk. I'd love to hear what you're building.
