What Fuego UX does

Fuego UX LLC is a Boulder, Colorado-headquartered digital experience consultancy that provides UX research, product strategy, UX/UI design, branding, and senior front-end engineering services to B2B SaaS companies and teams building complex or AI-native software. The firm operates with nine named contributors across research, product design, and design technology, plus two open roles, and serves clients through three commercial models: time-bound consulting projects (typically 2–12 months), monthly retainer engagements, and an embedded talent model in which senior researchers and designers integrate directly into client product pods with flat-rate pricing. Its portfolio spans enterprise clients such as Yahoo, PowerSchool, PODS, Fivetran, and Beeline alongside mid-market and government engagements across FinTech, HealthTech, EV infrastructure, e-commerce, and the public sector. Technical delivery is grounded in Figma, Storybook, and a component-driven design approach, with front-end builds in React, Next.js, and TypeScript, and a dedicated AI design sub-brand (ainterfaces.com) covering generative AI prototyping, conversational UI, and AI-augmented research workflows using tools such as Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex. The company is a privately held Colorado LLC with no disclosed outside funding, offices in Boulder, Denver, New York, Seattle, San Francisco, and Austin, and a fully remote operating model supported by content marketing, LinkedIn, YouTube, an email newsletter, and the annual Denver Product Summit.
