About

Most AI startup websites have the same problem. The product is great. The team is smart. But the website? You're almost embarrassed to share it. I've worked with 50+ founders on exactly this. The website, the product, the onboarding. Most startups treat these as three separate things. That's why users drop off. That's why investors don't follow up. I fix that. At Grauberg, we take AI startups from seed-stage scrappy to Series A ready. Not just visually. Strategically. If you want a quick gut-check on where you stand, I do €49 UX Audits. Most founders are surprised by what they find. → Book one here: https://www.grauberg.co/the-audit

Grauberg

Founder & Managing Director

Aug 2023 – Present · 2 yrs 8 mos · Tallinn, Harjumaa, Estonia · Remote

Grauberg is a design studio for AI startups.
We work with founders at Seed to Series A who've never had a real designer —
and it shows. The website is unclear, the product feels unfinished,
and onboarding leaks users every day.
We fix all three. As one system.
What we do:
Website design & messaging
Product UX & onboarding flows
Brand identity
Start with a €49 audit. End with a startup you're proud to show.
