Baked Design vs Rithmm

Baked Design is a product design partner / subscription design studio for founders and startups. It offers ongoing product design, branding, marketing website design, Framer and full-stack development on a monthly subscription model, with no meetings and no contracts.

Rithmm is a subscription-based design service tailored exclusively for AI and Tech startups. Positioned as an "extensive creative department," it offers unlimited design requests, revisions, and a dedicated team of senior designers for a fixed monthly rate. The service is built for ambitious founders who need consistent branding and marketing assets without the overhead of hiring full-time designers or managing slow agencies. From logo design and brand identity to social media posts, pitch decks, and digital ad creatives, Rithmm covers a wide range of visual assets. Communication and project management happen seamlessly through a bespoke Notion workspace, with live support available Monday to Friday. With turnaround times of 1-3 days for revisions and the ability to pause or cancel anytime, it provides flexibility and speed that traditional agencies often lack. Rithmm intentionally works with a maximum of five startups at a time, ensuring high-quality attention and commitment. Pricing scales with subscription length: $2,495 monthly, $2,095 quarterly, and $1,795 yearly, with the yearly plan offering priority access and a full-year availability guarantee. While it doesn't offer refunds, the unlimited scope and senior-level expertise make it a compelling option for Series A-C startups looking to scale their brand presence.
