FAQs
What's the typical cost range for product design services?
Product design projects typically start at $30,000 and can go up to $200,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the product and the scope of work.
How long does a product design project usually take?
The timeline for product design can vary greatly, but most projects take between 3 to 6 months. This includes research, conceptualization, prototyping, and final design phases.
Can you create prototypes as part of the product design process?
Absolutely! Prototyping is an important part of our product design process. We create both low-fidelity wireframes and high-fidelity interactive prototypes to test and refine the user experience.
Our clients usually love prototypes because they're able to convince their stakeholders (it feels real), without shelling out money to build it right away.
What is it like to work with Skydea?
We are remote-first and take a project-based approach, though we do offer flexible engagement depending on your needs.
Our bread and butter are web design and app design (or the current fancier term, product design), but our team is happy to help with any creative solution your business might need. If it's off our radar, we'll happily refer you to one of our trusted partners.
Where does Skydea's expertise lie?
Our expertise lies in launching and growing startups; one of our co-founders has worked for over a decade in Silicon Valley. We've also designed, built, and launched a handful of products and services within just the past few years.
We've also worked with large corporate clients, which means we understand you may have a fixed budget that requires rounds of approval, as well as a small design team that could use some senior guidance. Our team has previously worked with the likes of Rakuten, ActiVision, and various other brand names under NDA.
As a Tokyo design agency, we also have a unique perspective on the Japanese audience and their cultural differences compared to Western ones. Our mostly American creative team is well aware that even graphic design can be vastly different in Japan. One passion of ours is to bridge the cultural gap and help connect Japanese companies with customers outside of Japan.
Does Skydea work only with Japanese clients? Or also internationally?
We are a Japanese corporation, but we deliver creative services to organizations in Tokyo and internationally.
Does Skydea speak English or Japanese?
Both! Our team's common language is English, but some of our members interface in Japanese.
Do you provide ongoing support after the project is complete?
Yes, we're always here to support after the project ends. We provide training for your team to manage and update the design as needed. If you come across an issue, just ping us - we'll help, free of charge. (Of course, if it's a larger overhaul, we can quote it as a new project.)
Can you work with our existing development team?
Absolutely! We collaborate with in-house development teams all the time. We're happy to create detailed specs and assets, as well as interface directly with your dev team to make sure things go as smoothly as possible.
What size of companies do you typically work with?
We're comfortable working with organizations of all sizes, from fresh startups to global brands. Our client roster includes early-stage startups, growing SMBs, large corporations, and internationally recognized names. For startups, we often serve as their interim design team, bringing expertise they might not have in-house yet. Larger organizations typically engage us for specific projects where they need specialized design resources or when they prefer to outsource design work entirely. We're happy to integrate with your existing processes, whether you're a two-person founding team or a multinational corporation with complex approval structures.
