A flat monthly subscription, full-time or part-time, with no hidden fees or agency mark-ups. We scope your specific gap on a first call and send you real pricing.

Extend your team with SaaS design talent.

Q: How is this different from hiring a freelancer?

A freelancer splits attention across multiple clients and can disappear mid-project. Every Augment designer works exclusively on your product for as long as you need them, backed by senior oversight — closer to an in-house hire than a freelance gig.

Q: How fast can a designer start?

Most teams are working with a matched designer within days, not the weeks or months a full-time hire takes. You can try it out first with a free 3-day trial before committing to anything.

Q: Do I manage the designer, or does Augment?

Both, in the way that works for you. Day-to-day, the designer works inside your team, your tools, and your rituals. Behind the scenes, our Head of Design supervises the work, so you’re never the only line of quality control.

Q: What if the designer isn’t the right fit?

Tell us and we’ll match you with someone else — there’s no long contract to break. That’s exactly what the trial period is for: finding out before you commit.

Q: Can I scale the team up or down?

Yes. Add a second designer when the roadmap gets heavy, or scale back to part-time when it doesn’t. There’s no fixed headcount to justify either way.

Q: Will the designer fit our existing design system?

Yes — we work inside whatever you already have, and can help evolve it if it’s not keeping up with the product.

Q: Can I try before committing?

Yes — a free 3-day trial. You give us a real task, we deliver real work, and you decide if it’s a fit before any contract starts.

Your roadmap doesn’t wait for a hiring cycle. We embed a vetted SaaS designer straight into your team — no agency overhead, no ramp-up, moving at your speed from day one.

01
Your roadmap has outgrown your design team
Feature requests keep coming, but there's only so much one or two designers can ship. We add a dedicated SaaS designer who plugs straight into your sprint, so the backlog moves again.
02
Hiring would take months you don’t have
A full-time hire means weeks of interviews, then a ramp-up period before they’re useful. We skip straight to a vetted, SaaS-fluent designer who’s productive from week one.
03
Your agency is booked, complicated, or doesn’t get SaaS
Generic agencies juggle industries and processes that don’t map to how SaaS actually ships. We work exclusively in SaaS, with one clear way of collaborating.
04
You need specialist skills for one stretch of work, not a full hire
Not every gap needs a permanent seat. Add a designer for the exact stretch of work — a redesign, a new module, a design system — and scale back down after.
05
Your in-house team lacks a particular kind of SaaS expertise
Onboarding flows, complex dashboards, B2B admin tools — different SaaS surfaces need different instincts. We match you with a designer who’s shipped that specific kind of product before.
06
You want more capacity without more management overhead
An extended team member should feel like less work, not more. Our designers integrate into your existing rituals and tools, backed by a design lead, so you’re not managing a new hire from scratch.

Let’s talk

Struggling with talent challenges as you scale?

Growing fast surfaces the same pains every time. Here’s how we help you deal with each one.

Problem

You’re growing fast, but the agencies you’ve tried are either booked solid or don’t really get SaaS — and their process feels like a black box.

Solution

Augment is built specifically for SaaS teams, with one clear, predictable way of working from the first call.

Add design capacity

No surprises. Just a reliable
extension of your team

Adding an external designer is a leap of trust. Every Augment designer is an in-house trained specialist — not a freelancer — so quality stays consistent from the first sprint.

Skills

We filter out 99% of candidates who don’t make the cut in soft skills.

English

Only those who communicate fluently get hired at Augment.

Team expertise

Your specialist is backed by our Head of Design, who supervises the project.

Inside bootcamp

Every newcomer gets 3 months of training before working with their first client.

Sounds good?

Your dedicated SaaS designer is just one call away.

How we plug into your team

We tailor the setup to how you already work. For most teams it comes down to one of two shapes.

Embedded specialist

One dedicated designer joins your existing team and tools, working your sprint cadence on whatever’s next on the roadmap.

Dedicated pod

For heavier roadmaps, a small pod — a designer plus senior oversight — takes on a larger surface area in parallel, without you managing more headcount.

We’ve helped extend and scale 100+ SaaS product teams.

When capacity matches the roadmap, momentum takes care of itself.
