"We engaged Guidea for dozens of design innovation and execution projects at PayPal over a ten year time period. Their deep expertise in FinTech as well as mobile design strategy allowed us to quickly launch innovative experiences across the globe. For customers, merchants and PayPal partners including Discover, Home Depot. Starbucks and others. Their longest running success was Mobile Express Checkout, which helped provide a 33.7% spike in conversion rates for merchants and scaled to process billions in mobile payments annually by 2015. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again."

"Guidea’s biggest asset is their research-driven design. Other companies might make research part of what they do, but research is the center of what Guidea does. Something that really stood out about working with Guidea was that we got their top talents working on our project, which made a huge difference."

The team is flexible and adapts its approach to suit the individuality of the challenge. Guidea (A Theresa Neil Design Company) does not rely on scripted approaches and instead addresses each project on a case by case basis. It always felt as if they were highly engaged and thinking about the problem as thoughtfully as we were. They are one of the most creative vendors I’ve had the opportunity to work with."
Unicorn
"With Guidea, we were very clear and confident on what direction we needed to take after the project was completed."
Unicorn
"Theresa Neil's strategic approach and her UX/UI team were able to understand the mobile app approach quickly, audience needs, and current situation to make immediate, impactful recommendations utilizing a heuristic review approach and industry expertise to help ensure a world-class UX/UI."
Unicorn
"Theresa and her team were a great partner when we redesigned a whole analytical financial platform and set the path for good usability for years to follow. We did thorough market research and planning to get us a great new experience. Executives, internal staff, the sales teams and clients loved the new designs. It would be great to work with Theresa and her team again."
