Work with UXcalibur
An audit, a retainer,
or a standing seat.
Most regulated teams do not need a full design department. They need someone who has done this before, at the level the problem actually calls for. Here are the three ways that works.
Regulated UX Audit
Starts at $6,500 · Two weeks · Fixed scope
A structured teardown of one product against the failure points that turn into audit findings and compliance problems after launch. I go screen by screen: which rule drives this, where the gap is, and what to fix first.
Fractional Head of Design
From $9,000 / month · About two days a week · Three-month minimum
I run your design function part-time. Set the direction, hire and manage your first one or two designers, build the system, and own the bar for what ships in a regulated product.
Design Advisor
From $1,500 / month, or advisory equity
A standing seat. One strategy session a month, async review of whatever you are shipping, and introductions when they help.
How it starts
Every engagement starts with a 30-minute call, no cost. We figure out which of the three fits, or whether none of them do. If it is a fit, you get a fixed-scope proposal within a few days. Signing your NDA and working inside your security and procurement review is normal here, and I plan for it up front.
Book a callNot ready to talk yet?
Run your product through the Regulated UX Checklist first. Twenty-four yes-or-no questions on the same failure points an audit looks for. It is free, and it will tell you whether an audit is worth the spend.
Take the Regulated UX Checklist→Not sure which one you need?
That is what the first call is for. Tell me what you are building and what has to hold up under scrutiny, and I will tell you which of these fits, or if it is something else entirely.
