Here are Some of the Specific Services We Offer

User Research & Usability Testing

Interviews, journey mapping and tests with real users inform every decision, so your product is intuitive and effective before a single line of code is written.

UX Strategy & UX Audits

Audits of existing websites and apps that show where users get stuck, and a UX strategy that structures journeys to guide users and deliver measurable outcomes.

Mobile App & Banking UI Design

Clean, modern interfaces for mobile apps, banking and fintech products, crafted to reflect your brand and enhance user engagement, as in our Zemen Bank and Abay Bank work.

Interaction Design & Prototyping

Interactive flows and clickable prototypes bring ideas to life, letting you test key tasks such as registering or sending money and refine user journeys early.

Design Systems, Branding & Visual Design

Reusable components, states and style guides, plus visual identities that communicate your brand's personality across all touchpoints, like Zemen Bank's design system and MOENCO's style guide.

Amharic/English & WCAG Accessible Design

Interfaces fully localisable in Amharic and English, designed with inclusivity in mind to meet global WCAG accessibility standards for all users, on every screen and message.

What is UI/UX design?

UX (user experience) design decides how a product works for the people using it: the research, user journeys, information structure and steps needed to finish a task. UI (user interface) design is the visual layer: layout, typography, colour, icons and components. Good UI/UX design makes an app or website easy to understand and quick to use. For Ethiopian products it also means Amharic and English that read naturally on every screen, message and confirmation.
UI/UX design cost in Ethiopia depends on scope, so we quote in birr after a short scoping call. The main drivers are the number of screens and user flows, how much user research and usability testing you need, whether you want a reusable design system, the number of languages, and whether you need an audit of an existing app or a full redesign. A focused UX audit costs far less than redesigning a complete banking app.
A banking app redesign starts with mapping how retail and corporate customers complete tasks today and where they get stuck. For Zemen Bank we then built a design system of reusable components and states, added dark and light modes, made the interface fully localisable in Amharic and English, and cut the steps for core actions such as Send Money and Pay Bills by up to 40%. For Abay Bank we aligned every screen to new brand guidelines.
We turn wireframes and UI mockups into clickable prototypes and ask real or representative users to complete key tasks, such as registering, sending money or booking a service. We watch where they hesitate, make mistakes or misread Amharic or English labels, then fix the flow and test again. Because problems are found before any code is written, changes are quick and cheap, and developers receive screens that have already been checked with users.
An in-house designer suits a company that ships product updates every week and needs someone embedded full time. An agency suits a redesign, a new product or a UX audit, where you need researchers, UI designers and a design system quickly without building a team first. Many organisations do both: an agency sets up the research, design system and first release, then hands the files and guidelines to an in-house designer.
Yes. Our designers work alongside our own developers, testers and support engineers, so designs are built as intended rather than handed to a separate company. For MOENCO we produced the style guide and UI/UX mockups, then developed, hosted and maintained the mobile app and web admin portal. For Abay Bank we delivered a full UI/UX overhaul together with backend development. You can also hire us for design only and receive complete design files.
