The problem

Why Chicago teams look beyond the usual UI/UX agency

  • Chicago quotes start at six figures

    Clutch lists the average Chicago UX/UI agency project at $50,000 to $199,999. A 10-screen product or one redesigned flow rarely needs that budget.

  • The price comes after weeks of calls

    Discovery calls, a proposal, then a revision. By the time you know the cost, the sprint you planned for has already started.

  • Seniors pitch, juniors deliver

    The principal runs the pitch and a junior designer gets the work. You find out at the second review, when the screens look like a template.

  • The in-house hire is months away

    A senior product designer search in Chicago takes months, plus ramp-up. Your roadmap has screens waiting this quarter.

  • Cheap offshore means templates

    Low hourly rates often come with recycled layouts, a different designer each week and handoff files your engineers can’t build from.

  • Time zones break the review loop

    Feedback sent at 10am Central lands overnight, and every decision takes a day longer than it should.

Scope of work

What our UI/UX design services include for Chicago teams

The same senior scope as our UI/UX design service, priced as a fixed sprint and reviewed in your working hours.

  1. 01

    User flows

    Signup, onboarding, the core job and billing mapped task by task, so a Chicago sales demo is a choice, not the only way users reach value.

    User flows for a Chicago UI/UX design project
  2. 02

    Information architecture

    Navigation, screen inventory and naming that stay logical as your roadmap grows, tested against the words your users actually use.

  3. 03

    Wireframes

    Low-fidelity layouts for every key screen, reviewed with you on a Central Time call before anyone argues about colors.

  5. 05

    Interaction states

Local or remote?

Downtown Chicago agency or a remote senior team?

Real estate and proptech

Brokerages, property managers and proptech teams drown users in filters and tables. We design search, comparison, listing and portfolio views that get people to a decision fast.

AQARIEmura

Startups

Pre-seed to Series B teams need a product that demos well and tests cleanly. We design MVP screens in one or two sprints, so you can show users and investors a real product, not a deck.

RoomMind AILyvio

SaaS

Trials stall in onboarding and settings. We design the first-session path to value, role-based dashboards and billing flows, so activation and trial-to-paid go up.

OpsLoopAxon

B2B software

B2B buyers judge the product in the demo, and their teams live in it all day. We design dense CRM, analytics and admin screens that stay readable and fast to use.

AuraCrimino

Construction

Contractors and construction tech teams need bid, schedule and field screens that work on a jobsite phone, and websites that win commercial work. We design both.

BuildWellAstrix Builders

E-commerce

Shoppers leave at discovery and checkout. We design product discovery, personalization and short checkout paths that turn browsing into orders.

Leafy PlantHappy Tail

Restaurants and hospitality

Ordering, reservations and loyalty have to work during the dinner rush. We design booking, menu and status screens that guests and staff can use in seconds.

GuestyCoffee shop brand

Small businesses

Local service businesses need booking, quotes and prices people can understand on a phone. We design focused sites and apps, with website design from $1,250.

Law firms

Legal clients judge a firm in seconds, often at a hard moment. We design practice-area pages and a phone-first consultation path that make calling you the easy next step.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Maniruzzaman JubayerMasuder Rahaman

Still have questions?

Tell us about your project and we’ll say if we’re a fit.

How much does a UI/UX design agency in Chicago cost?

Clutch lists the average Chicago UX/UI agency project at $50,000 to $199,999, and established Chicago studios list $100 to $199 an hour. At Wolfpixel, product UI for up to 10 screens starts at $3,150, a web app with 11 to 25 screens starts at $7,350 and a UX audit starts at $2,500. The final price depends on screens, platforms and research.

How do I get a UI/UX design quote?

Send your product, goals and deadline through the contact form. A senior designer replies with a written, fixed quote within 4 business hours, or after a free 30-minute call if the scope needs a conversation first.

Is your pricing fixed or hourly?

Fixed. Each project or sprint has a written price that names the screens and deliverables before work starts, so the number doesn’t change halfway through. Dedicated monthly designers are also available.

Do you have an office in Chicago?

No. Wolfpixel has a US office in Sheridan, Wyoming, an office in the UK and its design studio in Dhaka. We work with Chicago teams remotely, over video calls in Central Time working hours and async reviews in Figma.

Can you meet in person in downtown Chicago?

We don’t run in-person workshops. Every review happens on video during Chicago working hours, with Figma comments in between. If your project needs on-site research or workshops, a Chicago-based agency may suit it better.

Which time zone do you work in?

Your senior designer overlaps Central Time for every review and call, so feedback you send in the morning is answered the same day.

Do you work with Chicago startups?

Yes. Most of our clients are seed to Series B SaaS, fintech and AI teams. For a pre-launch product we design the MVP screens in one or two sprints so you can demo, test and raise with a real product.

Do you design for SaaS and B2B companies?

Yes, it is most of our work: onboarding, role-based dashboards, CRM and analytics screens, and billing flows. The case studies on this page show the kind of product UI we design.

Which industries do you design for?

SaaS and B2B software, startups, real estate and proptech, construction, e-commerce, restaurants and hospitality, small businesses and law firms, as well as fintech, healthcare and AI products.

How long does a UI/UX design project take?

Screens ship in 7 to 14 day sprints with a weekly review. A focused MVP or one product area usually takes 2 to 4 sprints. You get a dated plan with milestones after the first call.

Who will design my product?

A senior product designer with 5+ years of shipped products, the same person you meet on the first call, reviewed by our product design lead. No juniors after the pitch.

What do I get at the end?

Organized Figma files, a component library, a clickable prototype of the main flows, responsive layouts, specs and assets, plus QA support while your engineers build.
