SecondEyes.design

Your best work deservesa second pair of eyes.

SecondEyes is an independent expert design review of a product, a set of screens or a portfolio. Two senior designers work through it separately, then hand you one honest report and a prioritised list of what to fix. We don't take redesign work afterwards, so there's nothing we're angling to sell you.

01The problem

Nobody inside your company can give you an outside opinion.

It isn't a competence problem. Internal teams carry an unaware bias — familiarity makes real problems invisible, and politeness keeps the rest unsaid. That's exactly the gap a second pair of eyes fills.

  • Feedback that already agrees with you

    Your team sat through every decision that got you here. They inherited the same assumptions, so they defend the same choices — usually without realising it.

  • No benchmark outside the building

    Internal reviews measure the product against last quarter's version. They can't tell you how it reads to someone who has never seen it, or how it compares to what your users use elsewhere.

  • Blind spots that quietly cost money

    The friction nobody flags is the friction users never report — they just leave. Those are the drop-offs that surface as flat conversion rather than as a bug.

02Who it's for

Three kinds of people book us.

Companies & agencies

You have a product in market and the numbers aren't where they should be.

  • Fix the UX friction users never report

04How it works

Four steps. No discovery theatre.

From the intro call to the walkthrough, most reviews are done inside two working days.

  1. Intro call

    30 min

    We get the context: what the product does, who it's for, which flows carry the money, and what you already suspect is wrong. Short, and it makes the whole review sharper.

  2. Two senior designers review

    The core

    Both designers go through your product independently — usability, visual craft, information architecture, conversion — then reconcile findings. Independent first, so neither anchors the other.

  3. The report

    FigJam · Figma · PDF

    Every finding written up and ranked by severity, each one paired with a recommended solution and the reasoning behind it. Built to be handed straight to your team.

  4. Walkthrough

    Call or 15–20 min Loom

    We talk you through the report so nothing gets lost in translation, and you can push back on anything that doesn't fit your constraints.

05What you get

A report your team can act on, not a slide deck of opinions.

The point isn't to tell you your product is broken. It's to hand you an ordered list of changes with the reasoning attached, so the next sprint writes itself.

  • Findings ranked by severity

    Every issue tagged high, medium or low, so you know what to fix on Monday and what can wait a quarter.

  • A recommended solution for each one

    Not just "this is confusing". What to change, why it works, and what the trade-off is if you do it the cheap way.

  • The report file, yours to keep

    FigJam, Figma or PDF — whichever your team actually works in. Hand it to a designer or a developer as-is.

  • A walkthrough with the reviewers

    A final call, or a 15–20 minute Loom you can replay for stakeholders who weren't there.

Findings — extract04 / 37
  • 01High

    Primary CTA loses contrast on scroll — fails WCAG AA against the sticky header.

  • 02High

    Checkout asks for shipping before showing total. Highest drop-off in the flow.

  • 03Med

    Empty states explain nothing. No path back to the primary action.

  • 04Low

    Type scale jumps from 14px to 24px — no intermediate step for subheads.

Illustrative extract. Your report is written against your own product.

On sharing: we sometimes publish anonymised findings on social media to show how we work. If you'd rather we didn't, tick “keep my review private” when you book and the whole engagement stays between us. We'll sign an NDA for product reviews.

06Questions

Before you book.

Something not covered here? Email us and you'll get a straight answer.

How fast will I get the review back?

Portfolio reviews and per-screen UX reviews are delivered in 1 working day. End-to-end product reviews take 2 working days. The clock starts after the intro call, once we have access to everything we need.

Who actually does the review?

Two senior designers review every engagement independently, then reconcile their findings. You get two expert perspectives rather than one person's taste, which is the whole point — a single reviewer has blind spots too.

How is this different from a design audit from an agency?

Most agencies review your product as the opening move in a pitch to redesign it. We do not take redesign work off the back of a review. That means we have no incentive to inflate problems, and you get feedback you can act on with your own team.

What do I need to prepare before we start?

For a product review: a live URL or staging access, a test account if login is required, and a sentence on which flows matter most commercially. For a portfolio review: a link to your portfolio and the kind of role you are applying for. For a per-screen review: the screen itself, plus what it is meant to achieve.

What do I actually receive?

A detailed report in FigJam, Figma or PDF containing every finding, ranked by severity, each paired with a recommended solution rather than just a complaint. Product reviews also include a final call or a 15–20 minute Loom walkthrough of the report.

Will my product or portfolio be shared publicly?

Only if you allow it. We sometimes share anonymised findings on social media to show how we work, but you can opt out when you book and we will keep the entire engagement private. We are happy to sign an NDA for product reviews.

Do you handle confidential or pre-launch products?

Yes. Pre-launch and unreleased products are a common case, and it is often the best time to get an outside review. Tell us on the intro call and we will work under NDA.

Why is the pricing this low?

These are introductory rates while we build up public case studies for this service. They will increase as capacity fills. The rate you book at is the rate you pay.

What if I disagree with the findings?

That is a fair outcome and we would rather you push back than nod along. The final call exists for exactly that — bring your constraints and context, and we will work through which recommendations survive them.
