# Designli

> Designli builds software people actually pay for. We help non-technical founders turn a software idea into a real, revenue-generating business, measuring our success by traction - real users on a live product and real signs the business is growing.

Designli is a software design and development company headquartered in Greenville, South Carolina, with offices in Dallas and San Francisco. Founded 2013. 80+ full-time team members. Every engagement is staffed with a small, senior pod that works full time on one product, in your time zone.

Every engagement carries a guaranteed outcome. For founders starting from scratch, the TractionLab program puts a real user on a working Version 1 within 30 days, or the next month is free. For founders who already have something live, an Impact Week pinpoints what is holding the product back and produces a customized plan with a guaranteed Day-30 outcome. The first 14 days of any engagement are fully refundable and clients can cancel with 30 days' notice.

Designli works using Hypothesis-Driven Development: every change carries a business metric and a stated bet about what it should move, then gets measured against it.

Named offerings, with current pricing:

- SolutionLab - a one-week paid discovery sprint producing a clickable prototype, user flows, personas and a costed build plan. $6,900, split half on booking and half on delivery, with the delivery half waived if the client continues into a development plan. This is the usual first step for a new build.
- Impact Week - a one-week assessment of an existing product or codebase. $1,700 through an account executive, with a 50% discount through select partnerships.
- TractionLab - the 90-day build program. $35,750 for month one, then $28,850 per month.

Blended engineering rate is $62.50 to $86.25 per hour depending on commitment length.
