Rails UI Audit

Looking to improve your Rails app’s UI and usability but aren’t sure where to start? I’ll review your interface and provide specific, actionable improvements.

I’ve been building sucesssful Rails apps for over a decade and typically work with teams on a monthly basis, helping them build and refine their UI (through my Tailor-made UI retainer. However, I know that’s not always the right fit — maybe you just need a fresh perspective or specific suggestions to improve what you already have.

That’s why I created these UI audit packages. They’re perfect for teams who want concrete UI improvements without the commitment of a monthly retainer:

  • Basic UI Audit

    50% launch discount $ 600 300 one-time
    payment

    • Up to 10 key UI improvements
    • Focus on highest-impact changes
    • Written report with annotated screenshots
    • 3-day delivery

  • Premium UI Audit

    50% launch discount $ 1000 500 one-time
    payment

    • Up to 20 key UI improvements
    • Priority recommendations
    • Written report with annotated screenshots
    • 20-min consultation call
    • 5-day delivery

No implementation details, no code reviews and focus on visual/UX improvements only.

Need more hands-on help? My Tailor-made UI retainer (starting at $2000/month) might be a better fit.

How does it work?

Choose a package that fits best (typically “Basic” is enough for fairly new apps). Upon ordering your audit, you can leave instructions where and how to sign up. Your app needs to be accessible with a typical web browser on desktop. If the sign up/onboarding process should be excluded, leave details on where to log in. Make sure credentials are added that have access to all features that needs to be reviewed.

Along with sign up/log in instructions, also include:

  • when you launched;
  • your industry;
  • the kind of customers you serve.

After receiving payment, your audit will be enqueued. You will receive a report in PDF format with annotated screenshots with all suggested improvements.

Who is behind this?

I built my first site in 1997 as a youngster, then continued to built sites for local businesses. I then moved into design and art-direction work. Fast-forward to 2016, with just a few years of experience with Ruby on Rails, I launched my first successful SaaS. I have since sold it and built various other SaaS’ (again sold and other still run successfully). With Rails Designer, launched early 2024, I put all my UI and developer experience into one package so others can build beautiful, faster.

FAQ

How does it work?

After your request comes in, it will be enqueued. I work through all audits on a first come, first serve basis. Based on the package you choose, the report will be in your email within the given timeframe (in work days). If I need more details, for whatever reason, I will reach out.

What do I get?

You get a (PDF) report with all key UI improvements annotated with screenshots from your app. With the premium package, we can go over the report or you can ask me specific questions about your app’s UI in the consultation call.

Does my app needs to be using tools like Rails, ViewComponent or Tailwind CSS?

No. While Rails Designer is indeed specialized in these tools, this service is UI only. So you could use any framework, tool and language. I highly recommend the aforementioned tools though!

What's up with the launch discount?

Rails UI Audit is a new service. I am still fine-tuning the service. As a thank-you I am offering you 50% off.
