Tour operators and independent guides needed a smarter way to connect. Scheduling was fragmented, payments were clunky, and matching opportunities relied on manual processes. Keyguides set out to modernize the space by building a digital-first platform that streamlined operations and created value for both guides and partners.

Build
We designed and delivered the MVP that powered Keyguides’ early success. The platform featured intelligent schedule optimization (cutting inefficiencies by 47%), integrated payments, and a B2B marketplace where partners could list openings and guides could apply. These core capabilities not only solved pain points but also proved compelling enough to drive significant funding post-launch.

FAQ

What’s included in a monthly retainer?
01
Each retainer includes a set number of design or strategy requests per month, priority turnaround, and a dedicated point of contact. It’s built for teams who want ongoing support without starting from scratch every time.
How many requests can I make per month?
02
We typically handle up to two active requests at a time, with new ones queued as they’re completed. Most deliverables are turned around within 48–72 hours, depending on complexity.
Is a retainer better than a one-off project?
03
If you need ongoing design support, faster turnarounds, or regular iterations, a retainer is often more cost-effective and collaborative than starting fresh each time.
Who will I be working with?
04
You’ll work directly with senior designers and strategists. No middle layers, no fluff—just experienced people doing the work.
Do you work with international clients?
05
Yes. Most of our clients are remote. We’re fully set up to collaborate across time zones with clear communication and shared tools.
