How much do UX Consulting Services cost?

The cost of UX consulting depends on your specific business challenges. A targeted UX audit requires a smaller investment compared to comprehensive product design and UX strategy for an enterprise platform. I provide customized quotes after a free discovery call.

What is the typical timeline for a project?

A standard UX audit takes 1-2 weeks. Full UI/UX design for a mobile app or SaaS product generally ranges from 4 to 8 weeks, depending on the complexity of the features and the amount of user research required.

What tools do you use for UX Design?

I primarily use Figma for UI design, wireframing, and prototyping. I also utilize tools like Hotjar, Google Analytics, and Maze for usability testing and user research.

What exactly is a UX Audit?

A UX audit is a comprehensive evaluation of your existing application or website. I analyze user flows, usability issues, and conversion bottlenecks, providing you with a prioritized, actionable roadmap to fix friction points.

How do you conduct UX Research?

UX research involves qualitative and quantitative methods. I conduct user interviews, analyze analytics data, study competitor interfaces, and perform usability testing to understand user behavior and validate design decisions.

Will you create a Design System?

Yes, for full product design projects, I build scalable design systems. This includes reusable components, typography, color palettes, and guidelines to ensure visual consistency and speed up future development.

How do revisions work?

I include structured revision rounds at each phase of the project (wireframing, visual design, prototyping). We review the work together to ensure it aligns perfectly with your business goals before moving forward.

How will we communicate during the project?

I prioritize direct, transparent communication. We use Slack or Microsoft Teams for daily updates, email for formal deliverables, and regular video calls via Zoom or Google Meet to review milestones.

Do you offer remote collaboration globally?

Absolutely. Although I am a UX consultant in Nagpur, India, I work seamlessly with startup founders and enterprise teams globally across the US, UK, Europe, and Asia.

What are the requirements for startups to work with you?

Startups should have a clear understanding of their target audience and business goals. Whether you have an existing MVP needing improvement or require complete product strategy from scratch, we can collaborate.

Can you handle complex Enterprise projects?

Yes. With 15+ years of experience, I specialize in simplifying complex enterprise applications. I understand the need for role-based access, heavy data visualization, and streamlined user workflows.

Do you specialize in SaaS projects?

SaaS design is a core specialty. I help SaaS companies reduce churn, improve user onboarding, and increase product adoption by creating intuitive, frictionless user experiences.

What is your onboarding process like?

Once a contract is signed, we schedule a kickoff call. I gather all necessary assets, analytics access, and brand guidelines. Then, we dive straight into the discovery and business audit phase.
