Not all UX issues are visible in the interface.

Our UX Audit looks deeper – at the code, patterns, and flows behind user friction – so teams can see what’s slowing them down, and fix it for good.

When usability and business intent drift apart, conversion and retention suffer.

Our UX Audit helps teams see where that's happening (in the interface and the stack) and how to realign both.

Sometimes the biggest insight isn’t in the data – it’s in what someone says off-hand while trying to get a task done.

Design Ethnography helps us tune into context, habits, and friction as they surface.
