webdew

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the CEO of EYENET, an AI startup. We developed an AI assistant that is a daily advisor for daily life. It can help users in different domains of life like personal care, personal finances, vacations, etc.

What challenge were you trying to address with webdew?

We needed help with animation.

What was the scope of their involvement?

I wrote the whole speech and storyboard and how it should be done. The webdew team recommended a lot of stuff in terms of animation and what’s possible, what’s not, and what’s recommendable to be eye catching. 

The deliverable was the animation itself, which is for the website. It’s more like a philosophy animation. It’s a story about our philosophy.

What is the team composition?

I worked with an animator.

How did you come to work with webdew?

I chose them because the animator was really nice and understood the requirements really quickly. She gave us a really good feeling when we talked to her. I found her on Upwork. She was one of the first to respond.

How much have you invested with them?

The total cost was $350.

What is the status of this engagement?

The project took place from November 2020-January 2021.

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

They’re an amazing agency and we had an amazing experience with them. We were really picky on what emotions we were trying to generate on the video, and webdew was really persistent and patient until we got the concept. They were really skilled in animation.

I’ve gotten really good feedback from investors. It’s a slow-paced animation. People in older generations love the video and the story. It’s definitely achieved its goal.

How did webdew perform from a project management standpoint?

She was extremely patient to understand what we were trying to create. Her customer service was really good. Communication was really good not only with chat but calendars and milestone dates. She was available 24/7. We used Upwork.

The requirements changed a little bit but they were really patient. They did an amazing job with the storyboard. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

She’s a very talented animator and really persistent. She’s really great. The quality of the team is amazing.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They’re really talented. They could have scaled the technologies of animation they’re using. That’d help them a lot in acquiring bigger clients and being on the trendy side of animation.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

I definitely recommend webdew. Try to be clear on the requirements.

Feedback process was that the video is submitted to us as a draft, for our team to look over, provide comments on and then the revisions are made in a timely manner. It was a smooth process.

For what projects/services did your company hire webdew?

We particularly loved the work they had done for Uber and we wanted to experience a similar quality of work for Khojdeal.

Describe the scope of their work in detail.

Once we decided that we are going ahead with Webdew, we started with discovery phase meetings. The idea was to explain our goals and objectives very clearly.

We finalised on creating a series of videos that would guide the user in different phases of the user journey.
