Challenges
You're here because you need to visualize your idea, right?
Is your concept feasible?
A mockup prototype lets businesses test product viability and gather feedback before full development. By creating a functional representation, companies can spot design flaws, test usability, and make early improvements, saving time and resources.
Worried about the cost of development?
An MVP prototype helps cut costs by testing and refining key features early, ensuring your product meets user needs and saves time and resources.
Do you need a more effective way to communicate your vision?
A UI prototype visually represents a product's design and functionality, offering stakeholders and investors a clear vision of how the final product will look and work, helping align expectations, and gathering valuable feedback.

INSIDE OUR DESIGN PROTOTYPE PROCESS
Testing ideas with users before committing to full development
Building a full product based on assumptions is expensive. Prototypes let you test core flows, validate design decisions, and gather user feedback before developers write a single line of code. You find out what works and what doesn't when changes are still cheap to make.

01
Defining what needs to be tested and why
We identify which user flows and features need validation. Is it the onboarding experience? A complex workflow? A new interaction pattern? The prototype focuses on the parts where you need feedback, not building every screen.
Key steps:
Core flows and features to prototype
Key assumptions and questions to validate
Target users for testing
Success criteria and metrics

02
Understanding patterns and user expectations
We analyze how competitors and industry leaders handle similar flows to better understand what users expect and where you can differentiate. We also review relevant UX patterns and usability principles.
Key steps:

Structuring content and navigation for exceptional user experience
We map out how information is organized, how users navigate between sections, and where key actions live. This structural work happens before visual design so we’re not distracted by aesthetics when testing flow logic.
Key steps:

Navigation hierarchy

Establishing the look and feel
We create mood boards and style explorations to set the visual direction. Colour palette, typography, component style, overall aesthetic. This gets approved before we design dozens of screens, preventing late-stage visual overhauls.

Building and testing the experience
We design the key screens and connect them into a clickable prototype. Then we run usability tests with target users, watching how they interact with it, where they get confused, and what works well.
Key steps:

Looking to validate your idea before full development?
HIPAA- and GDPR-certified expertise for Healthcare and beyond.
Since 2019, we’ve gained HIPAA and GDPR certifications and industry recognition, delivering hundreds of products in Healthcare, SaaS, FinTech, and EdTech — where compliance and UX go hand in hand.
Design that lasts beyond trends
We don’t chase fads. We build digital products that stay relevant.
Our work looks sharp today and stays usable tomorrow — designed around long-term value, not short-term gimmicks. Scalable systems, brand consistency, and smart UX that grows with your product.
Design that’s developer-ready
We design for implementation, not handoff.
Every component is built with devs in mind: design tokens, accessibility, reusability, and real-world constraints. We collaborate with your team, reuse existing elements, and stay involved until everything’s live.
Local presence. Global delivery
Work directly with the doers — not a chain of account managers.
Collaborate with UX strategists in North America, while our senior design and development teams in Europe deliver fast, consistent results. We integrate into your tools and workflow, working as part of your team — from a single embedded designer to a full product squad.
Not only is the team extremely communicative, their work is exceptional. I have never worked with a team so talented while also being competitively priced and communicative.

Phenomenon Studio's ability to translate concepts and rough design mock-ups into high-fidelity assets, designs, and visuals was very impressive. The goal was to maintain simple elegance in the design aesthetic, and they did it very well.
A design prototype is an early, interactive model that represents a product’s core functionality and user experience before full development. It helps validate design concepts, identify usability issues, and streamline the development process. Whether you’re building a mockup prototype or an MVP prototype, this step ensures your idea is viable and ready for refinement. A design prototype is an interactive model that helps validate product concepts before full-scale development.
02
Why do I need prototyping?
Prototyping is essential in product prototype design as it allows you to test and validate ideas before investing in full-scale development. A well-executed prototype can attract investors, reduce costly revisions, and improve user engagement. With an MVP prototype, you can efficiently test core features and ensure a market fit before expanding development.A product prototype design helps reduce risk, optimize user experience, and attract investors before committing to costly development.
03
How long does it take to create a design prototype, and how much does it cost?
The duration varies depending on the complexity and fidelity of the prototype. A basic UI prototype can take just a few days, while a detailed UX design prototype with multiple screens and interactions may take several weeks. For projects requiring extensive validation, an MVP prototype can extend into months, ensuring functionality and user experience are optimized before launch. The price of a design prototype depends on factors such as the number of screens, level of detail, and required interactions, which usually start from $3.500. Our prototype agency offers tailored pricing to fit different needs, ensuring a balance between affordability and high-quality execution.
04
What tools do you use for prototyping?
We primarily use Figma for UI design prototype creation, offering a collaborative and efficient design workflow. For interactive elements and prototype web design, we may incorporate additional tools to enhance the prototype’s presentation and usability. We use Figma for UI design prototype creation and may integrate additional tools as needed.
05
Can I use the prototype for investor pitches?
Absolutely! Our UI prototype services ensure that your product is presented in a compelling, interactive format. Investors appreciate tangible demonstrations of product potential, and a well-structured product prototype design significantly increases your chances of securing funding.
06
What happens after the prototype is ready?
Once your UX design prototype is finalized, you have several options: proceed to full development, conduct user testing, or refine the design based on feedback. Our prototype agency can assist in the next steps, including prototype web design, MVP development, and setting up a scalable design system.
07
How to embed a Figma prototype in a website?
To embed a Figma prototype in a website, you can generate an embed link directly from Figma. This allows stakeholders and users to interact with the prototype without leaving the page. Our prototype agency can assist with seamless integration, ensuring your UX design prototype is presented effectively for investor pitches or user testing.
