What It Is

Raw Studio is a Sydney-based UX/UI design, CRO (conversion rate optimization), and branding agency. Unlike traditional SaaS tools, it provides on-demand design services delivered by real people, using an agile subscription model alongside project-based audits and consulting services to help businesses cover the full journey from idea validation to product launch.

Core Service Dimensions

• Service Types and Core Features: Covers UX/UI design, CRO audits, brand refreshes, MVP builds, and design sprints. Its key highlight is the “Platinum Agile Design Team” subscription, which offers unlimited design requests, up to 4 concurrent tasks, and guaranteed rapid delivery updates within 1–2 days. In addition, its CRO audit service reviews funnel and analytics setups and provides a 60-day execution plan, making it highly practical.
• Collaboration Capabilities: Collaboration is fairly deep. The subscription service includes an initial brainstorming workshop, weekly collaborative design workshops covering strategy and planning, and optional weekly stand-ups, ensuring strong alignment between the design team and the client’s vision.

Pricing

Raw Studio uses a dual pricing model combining subscriptions and project-based fees. Its core agile design team costs USD 8,400/month plus GST, with the ability to pause or cancel at any time, making it suitable for businesses with ongoing design needs. A comprehensive UX/CRO audit starts at USD 2,500 as a one-off service. Other services, such as MVP builds and brand refreshes, require a custom quote. Overall, its pricing sits in the premium market segment.

Pros and Cons

• Pros: Extremely fast delivery, with updates in 1–2 days; complete service loop from data audits to design implementation; mature collaboration processes with regular workshops and stand-ups; highly flexible subscription model.
• Cons: High entry cost for the subscription; limited number of concurrent tasks, capped at 4; pricing for some services is not transparent and requires direct consultation.

Who It’s For
