Full profile — market position, go-to-market, geography

Market position

The company states its main point of difference from existing online design platforms is localisation: UK design briefs are handled by UK designers, so the resulting designs are described as "trend native". The same localised model is intended for other markets on entry, for example US designers serving US businesses.
