Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Eleken delivered a complete, production-ready design foundation for Smartpin across web and mobile (iOS & Android): a scalable Figma design system and component library with color tokens, typography, and reusable UI patterns mapped directly to React + Tailwind components; high-fidelity Figma prototypes and interactive flows for onboarding, asset management, PLG upgrade paths, and multi-user admin features; and seamless design-to-code collaboration with our engineering team to ensure pixel-perfect, responsive implementation and rapid iteration on every platform.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Measurable Outcomes

• Accelerated Launch: Smartpin’s MVP went live ahead of the original timeline, with no design-related blockers during development.
• Smooth Iteration: Dozens of Figma-to-React releases rolled out in the first year, all delivered on schedule without delays from design handoff.
• User Growth & Engagement: The new UI/UX helped drive a noticeably faster self-serve onboarding flow and a significant lift in trial-to-paid conversions in the months after launch.
• Design System Efficiency: The reusable Figma + React + Tailwind component library continues to reduce front-end build time for every new feature.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Eleken’s project management has been outstanding from day one. They integrated seamlessly with our product and engineering teams, running a clear and transparent process with weekly check-ins, well-organized Figma boards, and detailed status updates.

They consistently delivered every milestone on or ahead of schedule, with design never once becoming a bottleneck. When priorities shifted—as they often do in a fast-moving startup—they adapted immediately, re-scoping tasks and providing quick, thoughtful solutions without missing a beat.

Communication has been fast, friendly, and proactive: questions are answered within hours, feedback loops are tight, and they regularly suggest improvements before we even ask. In short, Eleken responded to our needs like a true extension of our team, making the entire design process smooth, reliable, and surprisingly fun.

What was your primary form of communication with Eleken?

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What stands out most about Eleken is their rare blend of creativity, speed, and true partnership. They don’t just hand over pretty designs—they think like product owners, diving deep into our business goals and user journeys to propose solutions that are both beautiful and strategically sound.

Their ability to challenge assumptions respectfully is invaluable: they know when to push back with data-driven reasoning and when to give us multiple polished options to spark healthy debate. Despite working remotely, they feel like an embedded part of our team, matching our pace, anticipating needs, and consistently delivering work that’s ready for production.

It’s that combination of strategic insight, design excellence, and seamless collaboration that makes Eleken genuinely unique.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Eleken could have done differently?

None.
