The design system agency for SaaS products

As your design system agency, Cluma gives you tokens, a Figma component library and documented patterns your product team can ship from, for one flat $4,995 a month. The system grows inside the same module as the flows and screens that use it. A senior designer owns the system and signs off on every component. Your engineers get a clean, dev-ready handoff.

What you get

Design systems are core to uShip, our SaaS UI/UX design agency module:

Component library
Figma components with variants your team actually uses.
Documentation
Usage rules that keep every screen consistent.
User flows and patterns
Repeatable patterns for onboarding, tables, forms and empty states.
Web and mobile app UI
Real screens built on the system, so it is tested in use.
Prototypes
Clickable flows to validate before engineering builds.
How it works

How it works

From audit to documented system, on one flat subscription.

  1. Step 01: Hire a discipline.

    Turn on uShip and start with a 7-day trial.

  2. Step 02: Brief it in Trello.

    Add a card to your private board. A sentence, a few references or a short Loom is enough.

  3. Step 03: One task. Full focus.

    A design system is a bigger project. It moves milestone by milestone, audit, tokens, components, then documentation, with progress about every 48 hours. Small component fixes land in about 48 hours.

  4. Step 04: Progress every 48 hours.

    Billing stops immediately. Unused days are banked for when you come back.

  5. Step 05: Scale up. Scale down.

    Every Figma file, token and spec is yours to keep. Your engineers build from a clean, dev-ready handoff.

The design team behind fast-moving SaaS products

Design system agency

Everything you need to know about Cluma as your design system agency.

What does a design system agency do?

It designs the shared foundation your product UI runs on: tokens, components, patterns and the rules for using them. Cluma does this as a subscription, so the system keeps growing with your product.

How much does a design system cost with Cluma?

$4,995 a month for the uShip module. That covers the system plus the flows, screens and prototypes built on it. The first month is paid in full, then you pause or cancel anytime.

How long does it take to build a design system?

It depends on product size. The work moves in milestones, with progress about every 48 hours. Your team uses each part once it is signed off.

Do you build coded components?

No. Cluma designs the system in Figma and hands off specs and tokens. Your engineers implement them in code.

Can I pause the subscription?

Yes. Pause anytime and billing stops immediately. Your unused days of the month are banked and resume when you reactivate. The first month is paid in full, then there is no contract and no cancellation fee.
