UX design users actually enjoy.
You built it with AI. Pepperplane makes it a pleasure for clinicians and patients to use.
Marié Whittington, founder and creative director, works with health and life science teams in Charlotte and across South Africa.
From “I have to log in” to “when can I log in again?”
- Built fast, with AI
- Screens look fine
- Users get lost between them
- Sees the whole system, top down
- Designs the bespoke journeys
- Keeps the thread through the product
- It makes sense
- They come back
- They enjoy it
Software out there is exceptional. Yours has to be too.
How it works
Three steps, in order. Each one builds on the last.
Is it a fit?
Fifteen minutes on what you're building and whether Pepperplane is the right kind of help.
No UX review or feedback.
Name the real problem
Paid working session where she reads your UX against who it is for and what it claims to do, and tells you what she sees. Her eyes and her time, no report.
Pepperplane on your team
Scoped work on one key user journey, or senior designers embedded with your team.
Who this is for
Frontier companies: teams pushing the edge of their industry.
Scaling past the MVP
Growth-phase teams whose first build is straining under new complexity.
Builders without a UX designer
Dev-heavy teams shipping with AI and no one trained to see the whole system.
New ways of working in health
Researchers and clinical teams building what did not exist before, where every wrong click costs clinician time.
Hiring, but not yet
Companies that need senior UX now, before and while they hire.
The person you will actually be working with.
Off-screen, she’s a drummer and wakesurfer
Outside Pepperplane, Marié enjoys sketching, painting, playing the drums to ’90s rock music and wakesurfing. Clients usually see her behind a screen; the drum kit and surfboard reveal a different side of her.
