Work & Co as a studio

Work & Co makes the digital products people use every day, in its own words, and argues that the best products require small senior teams who are hands-on from start to finish, with clients joining rapid prototyping and continuous testing. Founded in 2013, it numbers 250 to 999 people across Brooklyn, Portland and Brazil. The mix is a flat 20 percent each across custom software, mobile, product design, UX/UI and web design, a 60 percent design share. There is no Clutch rating, no reviews and no industry or client breakdown on record.

Who it fits

Consider Work & Co when a large company wants a product firm whose stated method is small senior pods, prototypes and testing rather than decks and meetings, and can verify that directly since no review evidence exists here. It designs and engineers products; branding and graphic design are not in the mix, so it is not where you go for identity or visual signature.

Strengths

  • Design and engineering in equal measure across web and mobile at real scale
