1. Speed

Being a startup means time is always of the essence. At Awesomic, we know how important it is to move quickly and iterate often with design as well. Speed is one of the many reasons why YC companies choose the platform.

With Awesomic, you’re instantly connected with the perfect person to make sure that every detail of your design is met. There’s also a 24- hour update guarantee, which means our designers provide updates every business day. Once a task is completed, they can quickly switch to a new one.

This is different from working with freelancers, which can often feel frustrating or overwhelming. The time between edits and the delays in communication with freelancers can impact the completion of design projects. Awesomic designers are on demand. This allows YC companies to submit design tasks without spending time searching for designers or managing design projects. The internal team manages designers on the Awesomic platform to ensure YC companies can focus on their business. 

2. Quality

Awesomic doesn’t just offer speed, our designers deliver design tasks quickly without compromising quality.

Our designers' high quality of work results from their skills and experience. We only choose from the top 5% of design applicants and constantly add new designers to our community. 

Designers who work for Awesomic have access to internal education so that they stay on top of the latest trends, while expanding their level of expertise. We believe in investing in our designers to ensure professional growth and overall work satisfaction.

Our goal is to ensure we maintain the high standards YC companies have come to know, love and trust.

The awards we’ve won — like the 2022 Red Dot design award — are also a testament to the quality of the work the designers consistently produce.

So, when you work with Awesomic, there’s no need to train someone new every time you have a design project or task. Your matched designer will learn your brand's style to provide the best visual designs. 

Pair this with continuity that makes communication more straightforward, you can ensure that your brand representation remains consistent with Awesomic.

3. Communication

Another significant advantage of a platform like Awesomic is the ease of communication.

With multiple ways to communicate with your designer and share feedback, founders never have to worry about a designer missing the mark or misunderstanding something provided in the design brief.

The platform allows you to communicate directly with designers via in-app messaging, through a Slack integration, or by scheduling a call with your designer from within a task. In addition to this, all Awesomic customers have a dedicated Customer Success Manager to ensure that all design projects are completed on time and with the best results. 

4. Pricing

For YC companies, controlling the budget is key to staying on-track with their ambitious goals and objectives. But that doesn't mean design projects must suffer - an Awesomic subscription offers a unique solution: one fixed monthly fee for all your UX/UI & graphic design needs! Manage costs while still having access to top quality designs.

Unlike other subscription- based design platforms, Awesomic is giving YC companies the opportunity to gain a considerable amount of design work in one month with our subscription-based system. No matter how many tasks you might have, we've got it covered!

For example, the YC company Perfekto has worked with Awesomic over the last few years. They already had a powerful brand book and a solid brand system when they started. Still, they needed a wide range of assets aligned with the brand’s visual guidelines.

Designers at Awesomic created illustrations, email marketing templates, print collateral (stickers and flyers), and a presentation deck for Perfekto. 

But the mandate didn’t stop there. They were also tasked with designing a mobile-friendly website for the brand that allowed them to scale quickly. The goal was achieved with a clean UI and intuitive UX, with easy checkouts.

Perfekto could get everything they needed with a single subscription, all because of how Awesomic structures its pricing plans.

“Awesomic has been the ideal solution for us at Perfekto since we had so many design & UI tasks to complete right away but didn't want to hire an FTE yet.”

Anahi Sosa - Co-founder & COO, Perfekto

5. No Operational Costs

Businesses often need to pay more attention to the hidden costs of hiring a designer in-house. 

Your designer’s salary will not be your only expense. In addition to the designer’s salary, you will need to consider expenses for training, onboarding, and development.

Even if you choose to go the freelancer route, you may find yourself paying extra for multiple rounds of revisions on a project. This can add up to more than you budgeted for.

With an Awesomic subscription, you can manage your budget without surprises, knowing exactly how much money you need to set aside for each month's design tasks. There are no additional costs for onboarding or customer support when using the platform. If you and your designer aren’t creatively aligned, there is no cost to rematch with a new designer.

Awesomic Understands the Needs of YC Companies

As a YC company, Awesomic understands the needs of your YC company better than anyone else. We’ve operated in similar spaces and often under the same design constraints.
