Apps. Reimagined. Digiruu is an award-winning UI/UX product design agency for consumer brands, built around a simple belief: most agencies build what a client asks for, not what they need. That approach is backed by results - Subconsciously, an app designed by Digiruu, won Best Social/Lifestyle App at the Best Mobile App Awards 2023.
Every project pairs a Head of Product with a dedicated UI/UX designer from day one, so product thinking and design craft happen together instead of one waiting on the other. That pairing is what stops projects turning into "yes agency" work - the right answer isn't always the one that was asked for, it's the one that moves the product forward.
What we do:
New app - design and build an app from scratch, from first idea to launch
Existing app - redesign and rebuild an app that isn't performing the way it should
Something else - websites, platforms and other digital products
Sectors we work in:
E-commerce and retail
Health, wellness and fitness
EdTech
Subscription and media
Hospitality and travel
Marketplaces
Lifestyle and spiritual
GreenTech
SpaceTech
Our process runs across three stages. Blueprint defines the requirements, user journeys and structure before a single screen gets drawn, so design starts from clarity instead of guesswork. Design designs the full interface and experience, crafted by humans and accelerated by AI. Build specifies and constructs the finished product with Digiruu's in-house development team, taking it from design file to shipped app under one roof.
Blueprint and Design run as fixed-scope, fixed-price engagements. Build is scoped and quoted per project. An ongoing product retainer is available once the design work is done.

Phone Interview
An app company has hired Digiruu to build an Android and iOS app to help people sleep. They’ve done market research and have handled UI/UX design and development work. The app is currently in its beta version.
The client is delighted with Digiruu’s high-quality work, professionalism, and 24/7 availability. The team is patient, personable, timely, and responsive through Slack and WhatsApp. Their understanding of the client’s vision, combined with their personalized approach, makes them a great partner.
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this
client over the phone. Below is an edited
transcript.
BACKGROUND
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the owner and CEO of an app called Stil.
OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
What challenge were you trying to address with Digiruu?
I had the idea for the app, but I’m not an app developer. Therefore, I was looking for someone who would understand the psychological importance behind the app and the pace I work at. If I was going to spend a significant amount of money, I also wanted good people to work with. I hired Digiruu to build my mobile app.
SOLUTION
What was the scope of their involvement?
Digiruu has developed my mobile app for iOS and Android. I provided them with my idea, and the team did market research and is in charge of the whole process, from UI/UX design to development.
The app functions to help people sleep and calm their anxiety. Users can pick between different languages, nationalities, and all kinds of actors. These include celebrities and professionals in their fields, from Reiki masters and yogis to hypnotherapists. Currently, the app is in its beta stage, and Digiruu’s work on it is ongoing.
What is the team composition?
I’ve worked with a core group of four people. Once in a while, other teammates will come in to do certain development tasks, growing the team to seven people from Digiruu. I also have direct contact with the owner.
How did you come to work with Digiruu?
I found them through a Google search. I looked at apps from other actors I liked and found Digiruu while searching for app developers. I wanted someone who understood my vision and that I could deal with personally. Although I interviewed about 15 different vendors, I was always going to choose Digiruu. I was happy they took me on because they were very busy.
How much have you invested with them?
So far, I’ve spent over £40,000 (approximately $48,000 USD).
What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together in January 2021, and the engagement is ongoing.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?
I feel very lucky to be working with Digiruu. The team is available 24/7, and they’ve never let me down. I appreciate that they understand my vision and have the patience to explain everything to me. They’ve built a personal relationship with us.
The team works very hard and is very professional. Moreover, they’re creative and good at what they do. They’ve been doing this for 20 years, so I’m dealing with some of the best people in the industry. The team really puts in the time and effort and cares about me as a customer. They’ve also expressed that my project makes them happy, too. Our relationship has gotten better and better, and we’ve grown together.
Digiruu has even helped me with things like admin setup for my company. Additionally, it took me a while to raise the money for the project, and they were very patient; they understood I needed time to be ready and that I had a few setbacks. By the time I had raised the money, they were ready to go.
Currently, I’m only showing the app to friends and family because we’re still tweaking it and adding voices. I’m not ready to go public with it yet; I want to wait a bit longer to build a client base and find the right time to release the app. They deliver on time and are really friendly and kind. Overall, they do an excellent job.
How did Digiruu perform from a project management standpoint?
They deliver on time and within budget. We communicate via Slack and Zoom, and I also have the team’s numbers. I talk to the owner via WhatsApp about ideas I get. Whenever I reach out, they’re always available — there’s always someone I can speak to. The team is in different countries, which works well for me because I travel often. Digiruu always gets back to me within an hour.
What did you find most impressive about them?
I’m impressed with Digiruu’s professionalism and personal relationship building. I could have gotten any vendor to build the app for me and have never seen them. Meanwhile, Digiruu’s owner has met with me to discuss ideas I couldn’t explain over the phone. These details are the ones you can’t pay money for.
They’re an amazing company, and the fact that they’re so personable and how they’ve taken the time to get to know my project is something money can’t buy. Digiruu has taken something really complicated and made it fun and easy.
Are there any areas they could improve?
Not at all. If anything, they should work less — they’re working 24/7!
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
Reach out to Digiruu, explain your dream, and let them do the magic. Trust the process because they know what they’re doing and are willing to listen. They’re also very fair; they’ve never tried to convince me to do anything or make the project more expensive. The team has made my dream come true for a passion project that will hopefully generate a lot of revenue for me.

App Design and Development
Everything from working out what to build, through to a finished app in the store. Every app starts with a Blueprint, where we decide what it needs to do and why. Design comes next, every screen and every state. Then our own team builds it. Upgrading later only costs the difference, never the full price again.

Our Story
Hey! I'm Aman. I started Digiruu because I failed a pharmacy exam.
Eight months spare, one app idea, and it hit number one in the App Store's Educational Games category.
Friends started asking how. I helped, built a network, qualified as a pharmacist - then launched my own agency.
Fast forward 10 years. We've won awards. We've been rated the #1 app agency in London and the UK.
Our vision? To create tech that changes the world.

Aman BirdiHead of Product
What Sets Us Apart
We've been on your side of the table
Digiruu started because our founder had an app idea, no code, and paid an agency to build it. So we know exactly what it feels like to hand over money and hope. It's why we say the hard thing in week one instead of after the invoice, and why we'll tell you when an idea won't work.
You know the cost before you commit
Discovery and Design are fixed price, agreed up front - not billed by the hour. So you find out exactly what you're building and see every screen designed for a known number, before spending anything on a build. Development is then monthly, so you can change direction or stop whenever you need to.
We do the thinking before the designing
Product strategists sit with designers from day one, so you get a spec, user stories and flows before anyone opens Figma. Clients arrive with a feature list and leave with a shorter, sharper one. And the spec is yours - it works even if you take it elsewhere.
