What we said about each
What we said about Supercharge
"The BritNed energy platform and VYRD insurance portal show real domain depth. The VYRD project includes qualitative user research with real homeowners—a clear signal of UX research capability when engaged. That said, case studies emphasize technology delivery over UX process—expect strong engineering-led execution rather than research-heavy design exploration."

"Nine published success stories follow one pattern: UX&I builds the client's internal UX capability—a discovery program, a UX-writing practice, a design-system governance model—then hands it off, several ending with the client's own team taking over.

Strengths and watch-outs
Both upsides and risks, straight from our editorial assessments.
Supercharge
✓ Strengths
- •5 detailed case studies across energy, insurance, healthcare, and mobility—showing genuine delivery breadth
- •VYRD project shows qualitative user research with real homeowners—a clear signal of UX research capability when engaged
- •Part of Siili Solutions (NASDAQ-listed), SOC2 and ISO27001 certified—strong signal for enterprise buyers requiring security and compliance
⚠ Watch-outs
- •UX design is one of 5 service pillars alongside engineering, data/AI, and managed services—expect strong engineering-led execution rather than research-heavy design exploration
- •Only 1 of 5 case studies (VYRD) shows explicit user research activity—ask for research-specific deliverable samples before committing to a research-heavy engagement
- •No case studies include measurable UX outcomes (conversion rates, task completion, usability scores)—results are framed as business metrics (app ratings, user counts)
UX&I GmbH
✓ Strengths
- •Ranked the most-recognized UX firm in Germany (2025 German UPA report), backed by 37 staff across five offices since 2014 and TÜV Rheinland certification—an established, low-risk vendor.
- •Works at the top of the German enterprise market—10 of the country's 15 largest companies, including Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, and Allianz—so large-organization procurement and complexity are familiar ground.
- •Structured for multi-year transformation over one-off projects: engagements like One Data and METRO ran three or more years.
⚠ Watch-outs
- •No product-level UX metrics (conversion, task completion, adoption) in published work—ask for outcome evidence if that's how you'll judge success.
- •The website and published case studies are in German, though the client base includes US tech firms—request English-language case studies if you need to evaluate the work yourself.
- •The model centers on strategy and enablement at €150-199/hr—if you need hands-on production of a fixed screen set, clarify who executes and the scope up front.
