What takto. does

takto. is a Bratislava-headquartered creative and product studio founded in 2008, operating through two Slovak legal entities (Takto production s.r.o. and Takto design s.r.o.). The studio delivers end-to-end creative services across five core practice areas: branding and corporate identity, online/web development (websites, mobile apps, UI/UX, SEO), video production, physical and digital product prototyping, and media campaigns. Supporting specialized offerings include aerial drone photography via UAV association membership, interior design, naming, banner advertising, PPC, and content creation. A small named team of approximately seven professionals spans art direction, design, web development, business development, sales, and filmmaking, with the director role held by a Colombian-born founder of prior production companies Pavoreal and Movolia.

The studio serves a B2B client base that ranges from startups and SMBs (Decent, Cashpilot, BAUKI, Expresstech, World of Brain) to large international enterprises including Subway (a web and app rollout across 12 European countries), Volkswagen Slovensko, Škoda Auto, Heineken, Martinus, and Kaufland. Revenue is generated entirely through project-based professional services engagements under quote-based pricing, with no public pricing disclosed. Geographic reach spans Central, Eastern, Northern, Western, and Southern Europe as well as the Caucasus, with prior physical operations in Rotterdam, Žilina, Hnúšťa, and Papča in addition to the current Bratislava studio. Distribution and acquisition rely on direct client engagement, a public portfolio website, social channels (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube), a blog and newsletter, and visibility from design events such as Bratislava Design Week, Biela Noc, and the Pohoda festival. Notable capability differentiators include first-mover hologram retail installations for Martinus (2018), photogrammetry 3D modeling from drone captures for Pohoda, and live aerial broadcast feeds for Slovak Television's 2019 election coverage; the studio also holds blankUX UX certification (2022) and a hiring site notice indicates active recruitment of PHP and WordPress developers.
