      DDC has been an excellent partner since we engaged with them in 2023. The DDC team worked with us to completely redesign our website and work to provide ongoing digital marketing services. The DDC team has been responsive, proactive, and thorough with their work. They are also very transparent about how they operate and how much time special projects will require. We have referred DDC to several clients and partners thanks to their outstanding process and product. DDC is a very professional, creative, and well-organized team.

      Web Design Review from Sapna Doshi, Ph.D.

      My experience working with Design in DC was incredible. Everyone was friendly, approachable, and seemed to genuinely care about helping create the best possible website for my business. They were also invested in making sure the process was one in which I enjoyed and felt taken care of. The regular meetings made me feel like I was a priority and that progress was continually being made. I so appreciated the attention to detail in regards to the user experience. The collaboration in understanding my wishes and desires for the website and user experience was met with patience and paying attention to detail on my behalf. Not only were they taking my suggestions but offering their own to help me maximize the potential of my website. The design and functionality is more than what I could have imagined. I know, undoubtedly, that the work that Design in DC did for me will help my business grow. After wasting money in years past on website designers, I was worried I'd be doing hte same here. I was wrong. I don't think I'll ever need to search for another website designer group again. I would recommend this group to anyone I know. Thank you, Design in DC! It was an absolute pleasure working with all of you!

      We had a really positive experience developing mobile apps with Ripe Media; the firm showed expertise and commitment throughout the project. To create a mobile application that would increase user engagement and broaden our online presence, we hired Ripe Media. They demonstrated a thorough comprehension of our needs from the first conversation to the last delivery, and they produced a solution that surpassed our expectations. Working with Ripe Media was made much more astounding by their dedication to meeting deadlines and doing excellent work. They met our requirements and standards for the final output, even with the challenges that come with developing a mobile app, and they did so on time. Ripe Media offered excellent post-launch support as well, with quick response times for any problems or queries.

      Nonprofit Review from Paige Lewis Sandford

      The Miller group is a committed, savvy and creative partner who can look at a situation and break it down into a realistic strategy. We hired The Miller Group to help us get clearer on our strategy for our non profit's membership program. We had premium and free levels, and we needed help understanding what drove interest in joining and staying as a premium member. In summary, we needed to better understand what our target audience understood about and wanted from each of the membership levels. Renee and her team helped us do quantitative and qualitative research and to develop strategies to acquire new premium members. They successfully delivered hard data analyses and suggestions to help us implement different strategies including recommending a new positioning for us. The team helped us understand how to position free versus premium memberships and identify the key drivers for the different audience groups. The Miller Group understood our needs and excelled in their creative approach to devising solutions. Overall, they were accessible, collaborative, well-organized and a strategic partner.

      Design Services Review from Monita K. Bell

      The fields for this review were a bit limiting, as Square Lightning partnered with us for both design and editorial services, including writing and copy editing, as well as sourcing photographers across the country. As a small team within a nonprofit, we simply don't have the capacity to pull off a magazine project on our own. Thanks to the photography and editorial help (the writing and editing of half the stories) and complete design services Square Lightning provided, we have a beautiful, impressive product that well represents not only our organization but, more importantly, the families we serve. Their partnership has been invaluable!

      Mobile App Development Review from DJA

      We paid $117,000 across two contracts $68,000 for development and $49,000 for marketing to Naked Development for a consumer-ready iOS and Android app and a full marketing funnel. They delivered neither. We originally requested delivery by Black Friday, the most critical sales window for a parent-focused consumer app. Naked Development proposed December as an alternative. That deadline was their own suggestion. They missed it. We extended to January, then February, then April, then issued a formal written Notice of Breach before giving them one final deadline the following June. Every deadline was missed. We were over 300% over timeline. When we finally handed the codebase to a second development firm, the app would not build on either iOS or Android. We paid thousands just to get it running enough to assess the damage. The contracted team was never fully assembled. Tickets were put on hold without explanation. Subscription management, the most critical feature of the app, was broken for months and never fixed by Naked. The commercial video Naked produced was unusable by launch, as cultural references had gone stale during the delay. We are software engineers who have led teams of over 100. These were not minor issues. They were basic, objective engineering failures. When we raised breach concerns with founder John Driscoll, his response was "let's just let our lawyers talk about it." We are aware of more than a dozen other former clients who experienced similar issues. Do not recommend.

      Mobile App Development Review from Mimi Bouchard

      I hired Naked Development in 2022 to build a new version of my mobile app. I paid $203,000 upfront (spread over six months essentially everything I had saved from my first year in business), and was told the app would be completed in five months, by Fall 2022. Instead, the project turned into nearly a year of delays, almost done updates, and declining involvement from their team. My very small internal team and I ended up doing much of the project management and QA work ourselves because progress had stalled so severely. Despite constant reassurances, no functional product was ever delivered. By mid-2023, I hired multiple external development teams to assess the code. Every single one independently concluded that the app was non-functional, unstable, not scalable, and could not be launched. They warned it would crash immediately and required a complete rebuild. I then hired a neutral third-party auditor with zero connection to any agency and his report confirmed the same findings. After paying over $200K, I had nothing usable. When I factored in delays, internal time lost, expert audits, and the cost of rebuilding from scratch, the financial impact to my business exceeded $500,000. After multiple attempts to resolve the situation privately were unsuccessful, I filed a lawsuit, which is now a matter of public record (Superhuman Inc. v. Naked Development). The case is set for trial in early 2026. While litigation is never something a founder hopes for, at a certain point it became the only responsible path given the evidence and the financial damage. I strongly recommend extreme caution when considering this agency.

      Mobile App Development Review from Jared Bossola

      Working with people that are as creative as I am is awesome. Receiving top marks across the board, Naked. is an innovative team of artists. The client praises them for their outside-the-box thinking and ability to connect on a creative level. Throughout the project, they’ve demonstrated attentive service and communication.
