Momentum Design Lab

Momentum Design Lab as a studio

Momentum Design Lab has been at this since 2002, which makes it one of the longest-running product UX practices in the pool. UX/UI design is 65 percent of the mix and product design another 10 percent, with small AI development and digital strategy lines. Enterprise clients are half the book. The team is 10 to 49 people across Palo Alto, New York and London, charging $150 - $199 / hr with a $25,000+ minimum. Reviews describe research, flows, Figma wireframes and one project with illustrations. Rating 4.8 across 96 Clutch reviews.

Who it fits

Hire Momentum Design Lab when you have a complex enterprise product, a customer portal or a workflow tool that needs research-led redesign, and you want a small senior team rather than a production floor. It is not the studio for identity or campaign work; there is no branding or graphic design in the mix.
