Design-Firm Partnership

A studio-partnership intake for design firms preparing a client for supplier conversations, samples, tooling, MOQ, or category-entry review. Share the category and decision context; Maevder reviews evidence coverage before scoping a paid category screen behind your firm.

Your studio keeps the client relationship. Maevder works behind your firm — this intake organizes evidence questions, it does not replace your advisory role or contact your client without explicit approval. Submission begins a scope review; it does not automatically establish a partnership.

This intake starts a scope review, not an automated report purchase. Maevder first checks whether the evidence coverage is strong enough to support a useful category screen. If the category is thin, stale, or outside current coverage, we will say so before a paid scope is accepted.

What the intake covers

A few questions about your studio, the client category, and the decision in front of you. It takes a couple of minutes.
