Get My MatchesWhy Trust Clutch
At Clutch, we believe trust is the foundation of every business relationship. Our mission is to help buyers make confident, data-backed decisions informed by real client experiences.
Every review on Clutch undergoes a rigorous, human-led verification process to make sure it’s valid. Our team of specialists confirms the identity of each reviewer, ensures the project is legitimate, and only publishes reviews that meet our strict criteria.
Verification doesn’t stop at the point of publication. Our Trust & Safety team routinely audits older reviews against our guidelines. When reviews fall short of our standards, we remove them.
We evaluate service providers using a structured methodology that combines:
- In-depth client interviews and ratings
- Comprehensive project details
- Market presence
- Portfolio examples and industry recognition
This data powers tools like the Leaders Matrix, which helps you compare agencies directly. Our research team curates rankings by weighing verified reviews most heavily, so the most trusted and experienced providers rise to the top.
Using this unique combination of verified client feedback and provider-supplied insights, Clutch distills the most important details into clear, digestible summaries so you have everything you need to make confident, informed decisions quickly.
We take fraud seriously. Providers who violate our guidelines may face lower rankings, restricted visibility, or removal from the platform altogether.
Clutch’s commitment to transparency is ongoing. We’re constantly refining our systems to protect the integrity of reviews and support you in finding the right agency.

Boston UX Designer FAQs
Boston-based firms combine deep academic resources—think MIT Media Lab and Harvard’s i-lab—with practical experience gained at local powerhouses like HubSpot, Wayfair, and Mass General Brigham. Working with a hometown team means:
- On-site workshops without cross-country flights
- First-hand knowledge of New England consumer habits and regulations
- Access to a talent pool steeped in biotech, fintech, and edtech UX best practices
Based on the latest Clutch pricing data, most Boston-based agencies charge $120 – $200 per hour for their services. Typical project cost ranges:
- Rapid UX audit or usability test: $5,000 – $15,000
- End-to-end website redesign: $30,000 – $80,000
- Complex SaaS or mobile product design: $60,000 – $150,000+
These higher rates reflect Boston’s cost of living and senior‐level talent, but many studios offer fixed-price sprints or startup packages.
Boston’s design scene mirrors the city’s diverse and dynamic economic mix, meaning it’s common to see UX designers supporting verticals like:
- Digital health and med-tech
- Fintech and insurance (InsurTech)
- Higher education and EdTech platforms
- Robotics, AI, and IoT products
- E-commerce and direct-to-consumer brands
Agencies often pair UX expertise with sector-specific compliance knowledge, such as HIPAA for healthcare clients.
- Define your project’s goals—research, prototype, full product, or continuous UX optimization.
- Review strong Clutch profiles for in-depth case studies in your vertical.
- Ask about their process (design thinking, agile, dual-track discovery).
- Request a sample timeline and stakeholder touchpoints.
