It’s not 2007 anymore

The Price Changed. The Standard Held.

The fear is a distant vendor, a half-day lag, and a drop in design quality. Here's the reality.

What you're picturing

What you actually get

A vendor you can't hold accountable.

A lead designer on the design, and a project manager making sure it lands on time.

A 12-hour lag that stalls every decision.

Standups, design reviews, and feedback calls every business day, 9 AM–12 PM ET.

Instructions lost in translation.

Native-level English across every communication channel.

Little grasp of Western design sensibilities.

Design shaped by research with Western users, not assumptions about them.

Low-quality output.

Designers with global client experience: ICICI, Bajaj, OneCard, Chartbeat.

Less experienced designers you never meet.

The people on your project, named and introduced before you sign.

How we think

We don’t just make it look good. We make it get used.

Every project runs through the same process: understand the users, design for them, test it, and refine until the design works for both the people using it and the business paying for it.

Product design work on a desk

We make high-stakes software people actually use.

We measure one thing: adoption. Not applause for a screen — whether real people use it, keep using it, and tell someone else. That’s the number we move, and it’s why teams come back.

Why teams pick us

Every objection you have, answered.

5 things worry every US buyer about hiring an India team. Here's our answer to each.

What Clients Say About Working With YellowSlice

MCA

"I ran my own creative agency for 13 years. During those years, we occasionally outsourced work to India. It was effective, but at the time, working with an offshore team often required additional oversight and hand-holding. The world has changed dramatically since then. Creative talent is global now. Yellow Slice is a great example of that evolution."

Fit

We’re not for everyone. On purpose.

The best partnerships start honest. Here’s who we do our sharpest work with — and who we’ll happily point elsewhere.

We do our best work with

Funded startups and scale-ups moving fast

Teams that treat design as a growth lever, not decoration

Founders who want an ongoing partner, not a one-off vendor

Complex, high-stakes products where adoption is the whole game

We’re probably not your fit if

You’re shopping purely for the cheapest possible hour

You need a single logo and then you’re gone

You want a vendor to silently take orders, no point of view

Design is a box to check, not a bet you’re making

Talk 1:1 with Our Founder

Meet our Founder, or just email him.

Kishor Fogla, Founder of Yellow Slice

I started Yellow Slice 18 years ago on one belief: design isn’t how it looks, it’s whether people use it. Send me a note about what you’re building. I read every one, and I reply within a business day.
