Benoit Chabert — Founder
Hi, I am Benoit and I run Pixel One. Our clients have raised $2B+ and exited for $3B+ Here is how we got here: 2010: Joined ArtStation as first designer, we scaled the platform from 250K to 5M visitors per month. 2012: Started freelancing for unicorn startups from San Francisco, joined Toptal's top 3%, logged 10,000+ hours at 6 figures. 2018: Hit a wall, every project followed the same cycle of design the core, ship fast, move on. The animations, illustrations, bespoke details that make products exceptional always got cut. 2019: Founded Pixel One, built a team of illustrators, 3D artists, animators, strategists and people who could push design beyond functional into world-class. Took a pay cut to make it happen. Today: Our clients have raised over $2B and exited for $3B. We have designed 100+ B2B SaaS V1s and our longest client has been with us for 84 months, average partnership is 24+ months. 100% of clients rate us exceeding expectations on communication and delivery. Results: // Deliverr, worked with them from Seed stage, stayed through their $2.4B acquisition by Shopify. // Apollo, increased sharing adoption by 7,000%, retention up 8.4%, one button we designed generated 50 new seats. // Pendo, helped them launch self-serve while doing $1B ARR through sales-led motion. // Zenlist, designed their V1, helped them close first customers and scale to millions in ARR. // Sunflower, took them from pre-alpha to 100K monthly active users, $6M raised at $60M valuation, accepted into Y Combinator. // Solea, collapsed 8 confusing tabs into 1 unified timeline, helped them close a $100K+ enterprise deal. // Collective, rebuilt their fintech compliance onboarding after our team reset and learned the domain from scratch. I built Pixel One because freelancing would never let me do my best work. When you understand the business as deeply as the founder does, you become irreplaceable. If you are building something ambitious and need design that moves the needle, book a call or drop a DM. Want to read more from Pixel One? Substack - substack.com/@benpixel1
