Love Shantanu – When we started out we got all our product and UI design done through him. He’s quick and delivers high quality!

Ivo Melvan

We worked with Shantanu on our product and brand identity and have received tons of unprompted praise. Highly recommended!

Vivek Kumar

Great design work for a great price! Especially with how quickly he works. We’ve worked with him for a while now and are happy. He’s reliable and easy to work with.

Divy Vaid

Amazing service for such a good price! Especially with this offer. We’ve been their customers for some time now and are happy. They are reliable and hassle-free to work with.

Prashant Sharma

Founder at Mercle

What I love about working with Shantanu is that it’s like having a world-class designer on your team. The only reason to stop would be hiring in-house — but honestly, we don’t see that happening anytime soon.

Vishvendra

Founder at Bento

Recently brought on Shantanu for a side project I’m building. Saw traction literally on day 1. Super impressed and will definitely continue working with him for anything design-related!

Gil S

Co-Founder at Superfy

Nischit P

CTO at Mercle

We did a 1 - 1 engagement with Shantanu and he exceeded all expectations. Fantastic support throughout. Strongly recommend.

Naman Mohan

CTO at Potentia Protocol

Only a week into working with Shantanu and he already delivered a full brand system I am thrilled with. You usually can’t get speed, quality, and cost all at once — but somehow, he pulls it off.
