Role and Position
Freelancer – Radeeyah Adedokun
Jiri opened me up to a whole new world of designs and possibilities. Based on how he tackled the situation and the call, it is evident that he cares a lot about his mentees.
FILA – Ivan Rerat
Jiri is great at identifying your design issues and finding the quickest way to become the best version of yourself! With extensive experience and a strong understanding of the world, Jiri is a superb mentor.
Deel – Lucie Chen
Jiri is a mentor who can quickly identify the key issues that you might not be aware of and give you open & honest advice based on his experience. I learnt so much from both engaging with him through our mentor session, reading his articles and reading the book he recommended.
Framework
Proposition Shaping
Stop funding constant meetings without shipping value.
At GIVE™ studio, we’ve replaced the traditional agency "burn rate" with a lean, operational engine that delivers within days, not months. We strip away the fluff—the endless stakeholder interviews, the vague "vision" and “strategy” decks, and the third-party guesswork—and replace them with a rigorous, DaS™-powered framework that links every design decision directly to a business outcome. By combining advanced automation, we translate your proposition into high-fidelity, BDD-formatted requirements that your engineering teams can actually build.
We don't focus on winning awards and celebrations; we build operational excellence that ensures your product actually gets built, is measured against KPIs, and exceeds expectations for your bottom line.
Design Shaping
Stop paying for insights that expire before the first prototype is built.
In the traditional model, months of research are often "synthesised" by committees into static Miro boards that offer no path to production. Our product studio does things differently. Using the DaS™ Canvas, we transform operations, business, and research into active, compound knowledge—integrated directly into your team’s daily workflow so that every insight is resurfaced exactly when a decision needs to be made. We bridge the fatal gap between "vision" and "velocity" by bringing engineering into the room from day one. Instead of empty links and "made-up" synthesis, we deliver a unified space where design and architecture collide to produce shippable prototypes within a week.
We don't just shape how a product looks; we shape its ability to thrive in the real world while remaining maintainable and scalable.
Refinement
Bridge the gap between "Strategy" and "Shipping” Agentic Organisation Check.
Most product teams lose momentum in a cycle of endless workshops and reactive Excel-sheet pivoting, resulting in a "strategy" that never actually touches the code. At our studio, we use the DaS™ Canvas as a foundation that instantly translates high-level workshops into actionable HLRs and Product Requirements (PRDs). We’ve eliminated the "reactive switching mode" that kills design quality; instead, we provide a continuous design supply delivered directly into your GitHub repository as structured code. This ensures that every brand artefact and design decision is tethered to reality, prioritised for impact, and ready for deployment at the end of every week.
We don't just talk about the work; we refine it into the very foundation of your build, allowing your organisation to grow.
Development
Eliminate the "Guesswork" from your Engineering cycles.
The traditional model is a cycle of finger-pointing: design blames engineering, engineering blames the business, and everyone blames the "feature machine." We’ve dismantled this wall by ensuring that Think, Solve, and Make happen in the same breath. Using the DaS™ Framework connects structured PRDs across the business into integrated prototypes validated by Solution Architecture before a single line of production code is written. By translating design outputs through MCP (Model Context Protocol) into the appropriate codebase language, we ensure that what was designed is exactly what is built.
No handovers, no "guessing" over Zoom calls, and no reactive firefighting—just a transparent, singular knowledge base driving measurable weekly increments and a smooth, predictable delivery.
Integration
Launch with certainty, not hope.
Most agencies treat “Going Live” as someone else’s problem, leaving marketing to paper over the cracks of a product that doesn’t perform. Our studio closes the loop. With the DaS™ framework, we design, build, and ship as a single, synchronised unit. Because our KPIs are baked into the PRD from day one, we don’t “see what happens”—we measure against pre-defined tolerances that we know we’ve already met. This integrated approach doesn’t just minimise risk; it creates a continuous loop of excellence.
While we release CR 1.0, the DaS™ engine is already mid-flight in planning for CR 2.0.
We don’t just finish projects; we initiate a self-sustaining cycle of your product evolution.

What does GIVE™ actually do?
We build great digital products that need to be integrated into complex (often highly regulated) environments. We are partnering with an ambitious organisation to create an experience-led design bridge, so that “branding” agencies can focus on branding explorations, and we productise all components into accessible code.
We are experts in documenting design decisions that shape future organisations.
When it comes to scale, we’ll design the team around the proposition that becomes an invisible catalyst for your growth.

How is GIVE™ different from traditional Design “Branding” Agencies?
Marketing and branding agencies offer a 360º service that rarely delivers production-ready code to in-house teams. We connect businesses through operational excellence and code (from UI kits to design systems and operating systems). We partner with agencies and an in-house team to serve as an invisible bridge, offering bespoke product lead implementation. In other words, we translate beautiful visuals into working products ready for integration.
1. Advisory – Advise you to do it yourself (please look at the details at Design at Scale™)
2. Fractional – Advise your existing team to enable the product-led delivery. (2-3 d/w)
3. Product House – build the team around the proposition and deliver it with you or for you (teams often stay with you for further BAU).
Who are GIVE™'s most popular clients?
The ambitious clients who struggle with time or budget:
1. Corporations are trying to build internal initiatives to transform a specific part of the business.
2. SaaS (AaaS) Software companies partnering with non-technical clients.
3. Design agencies that want to remain in the creative, innovative space and do not wish to worry about implementation.
4. Brands are building in-house design functions that are connected to engineering.
5. Tech platforms’ in-house teams are integrating with multiple agencies to build one or several products.
The brand or business that needs to shorten the time between branding exploration and real code deployment to an existing or new codebase.
How does GIVE™ build teams around a proposition?
We shape the structure based on the context.
Our team of advisors/doers helps the organisation make the best possible decision in a given timeframe:
1. Driving your team and transferring the knowledge immediately to your leadership and delivery team.
2. Building the team with your or our selected TA Partner.
3. If the timing is not in our favour and you need “Fire fighters”, we have an extensive network of designers and engineers who can be operational within 48h.

(We are not selling headcounts – we are delivering tailored products, design, and delivery)
How does GIVE™ help internal teams?
We have an excellent track record of coaching and shadowing design leaders to deliver work within their organisations:
1. Fractional – install the infrastructure and advice on demand
2. Full-time – On the project.
(minimal engagement in one life cycle, 12 weeks)
How does GIVE™ support brands building in-house agencies?
Building an in-house design team is not about talent; it is about the foundational business structure in which the design function is recognised and well represented to make informed business decisions:
1. Transparency over Silos.
2. Broadcasting over Protecting.
3. One source of truth.
In this environment, any design talent can be cultivated and deliver outstanding results. Then it’s about the TAPartner finding the right organisational fit.
How do GIVE™ tech platforms set the foundation?
Product model is not alien to designers; it just has several different explanations that make it hard to digest – we use Design at Scale™, which helps already over 5,000 designers smoothly transition to a product delivery model.
1. Fast adoption curve on both ends
2. Immediate team bonding
3. Ceremonies
4. Documenting Design Decision
5. A clear task list that is operationally ready and can be integrated with any advanced engineering team.
Upside: no new tool required, no additional software, nor plugins. All is in the existing design and engineering park.
How does GIVE™ work with startups?
Startups are close to our hearts. To drive accelerated growth, we offer a foundation setting for fixed cost and ongoing support for 5% of equity:
1. Mobilise – Product definition with resourcing
2. Operate – Building core proposition (brand, product and marketing) CR1.0.
3. Accelerate – GTM product strategy, BAU and preparation for CR2.0.
4. Acquisition and post-acquisition product planning
5. Integration – Supporting the E2E product integration
How does GIVE™ work with corporates?
GIVE™ is a perfect in-house team. Invisible yet fully integrated with your design or engineering function: Our value proposition is the following.
1. Money – we always look to reduce operational costs for our partners. On average, we have saved between 18% and 32% on the operational budgets of our completing agencies.
2. Risk – Reducing the risk is our priority. Design is no longer about shiny buttons; it’s about literacy, accessibility, clarity, transparency, and enabling users to make informed decisions.
3. Time – Time-to-market has become the most valuable commodity. It is not about how quickly you prototype, it’s about how quickly you ship.
4. Status – We are not an agency of record, or a fancy new-age branding superstar. Your success is our success; your promotion is our pleasure – we deliver quality of work that creates more work and more happy partners to serve a greater number of customers.
Who doesn’t work with GIVE™?
Rarely, some businesses have an ambition but a higher resistance to adopting. Design at Scale is not about Flipping.
It’s about sustainable incremental repeatable steps that guarantee progress and the anticipated transformation:
