35 design agencies for AI startups
Studios that design for AI products — where the hard problems are trust, latency, and explaining what the model did.
Who wrote this: non boring.gg, a design studio that is also on this list. Every number here is from the studio's own site or public directory profile on 2026-09-28; nothing is paid placement and we don't rank ourselves first. Order is by Clutch reviews, then starting price — a rule stated up front, applied the same to us as to everyone else.

Questions
What's different about designing for an AI startup?
Three things: showing uncertainty honestly, designing the waiting state (streaming, progress, partial results), and making the output editable. Our research found 61% of YC 2026 homepages lead with 'AI' — differentiation now comes from the product experience, not the word.
Which agencies specialise in AI product design?
Lazarev, Humbleteam, Bricx and Phenomenon all market AI product design. non boring.gg focuses on AI and SaaS products for YC-stage teams.
How we chose and ordered
Inclusion: the studio publicly states it serves this segment, or names clients in it. Ordering: Clutch reviews, then starting price. "From" is the lowest starting price the studio publishes; where none is published we give an estimate from public quotes and mark it. Clutch figures are read from clutch.co on the date above. If you run a studio and something is wrong, email us and we'll fix it in the next monthly refresh.
