SaaS product UI flows and dashboard mockups

SaaS product design for
onboarding, adoption & growth

We design SaaS that customers love and teams can scale—research to release. Onboarding & activation, dashboards, workflow UX, and design systems with accessibility and performance baked in.

  • Discovery, interviews & JTBD

  • IA, flows & interactive prototypes

  • Dashboards, tables & filters

  • Design systems & tokens

  • Accessibility & performance

  • Onboarding & activation

  • RBAC, multi-tenant & audit logs

  • Billing, trials & paywalls

  • Integrations & webhooks

  • Analytics, funnels & cohorts

Product strategy & metrics

/01

Define ICPs, pains and outcomes. Prioritise value, set activation/retention goals, and plan phased delivery across web app and admin surfaces.

Deliverables
  • Discovery & stakeholder workshops
  • ICPs, JTBD & opportunity mapping
  • Use-case backlog & roadmap
  • North-star & guardrail metrics
Outcomes
  • Aligned vision & focus
  • Value-led prioritisation
  • Clear activation/retention goals
  • Faster decision cycles

User workflows & wireframes

/02

Map multi-tenant journeys—onboarding, core jobs, admin. Validate navigation, states, and permissions with low-fi wires before UI polish.

What we create
  • Information architecture & flows
  • Lo-fi wireframes (dashboards/tables)
  • State diagrams (empty/error/loading)
  • Role-based access (RBAC) paths
Why it matters
  • Lower rework
  • Faster user success
  • Clarity for engineering
  • Consistent patterns
Flows Wireframes IA States RBAC

App UI & interactive prototyping

/03

High-fidelity interfaces for complex SaaS—tables, filters, bulk actions, modals. Clickable prototypes with motion specs for usability tests.

Deliverables
  • Hi-fi screens & components
  • Design tokens (type/colour/spacing)
  • Interactive prototypes
  • Micro-interactions & motion
Validation
  • Usability sessions & tasks
  • Accessibility checks
  • Iteration & handover pack
UI Prototypes Tokens Motion Components

Frontend & backend architecture

/04

Modern web stacks—React/Next.js, Node/Go, GraphQL/REST. Multi-tenant, SSO, audit logs, rate limits, and clean modular code ready to scale.

Deliverables
  • System & data architecture
  • API design & integration
  • Auth (OAuth/SAML/OTP)
  • Webhooks & eventing
Benefits
  • Performance & reliability
  • Secure-by-default patterns
  • Faster feature delivery
React Next.js Node/Go GraphQL/REST SSO

QA, security & compliance

/05

E2E tests, performance budgets, and observability. SOC 2/GDPR-ready processes, consent flows, RBAC reviews, and data retention policies.

Methods
  • Unit/UI/E2E test suites
  • Load & reliability testing
  • Security reviews & threat modeling
  • Observability & SLOs
Standards
  • SOC 2 & GDPR considerations
  • RBAC & least-privilege checks
  • Consent & data lifecycle
QA Security SOC 2 GDPR SLOs

Launch, billing & growth

/06

CI/CD, beta programs and release notes. Trials, paywalls, invoicing, and self-serve admin. Funnels, cohorts and experiment sprints to lift retention and expansion.

Implement
  • CI/CD & environment strategy
  • Feature flags & rollouts
  • Billing (subscriptions, invoices)
Grow
  • Activation & funnel analytics
  • Experimentation & cohorts
  • Support SLAs & playbooks

Our SaaS product design approach & philosophy

We design B2B/B2C SaaS that users adopt and teams can scale—clear onboarding, focused workflows, and dependable guardrails. From discovery to growth loops, we align activation, engagement, and retention with a systemised design language that works across web app, admin, and integrations.

  • Outcome-first discovery & clear KPIs

  • Task-focused IA for complex workflows

  • Design tokens & reusable components

  • Multi-tenant safety (RBAC, audit, states)

  • Performance, a11y & empty/error design

  • Experimentation, telemetry & iteration

  • Product strategy, ICPs & activation map

  • Flows & wireframes (dashboards, tables, CRUD)

  • Hi-fi UI, states, motion & prototypes

  • RBAC, permissions & audit patterns

  • Billing, trials, paywalls & in-app guidance

  • Design system, docs & rollout playbooks
