Designing AI experiences people actually want to use

AI makes new things possible. We help teams turn those possibilities into useful, intuitive products people can trust.

Let's talk

How can we help

We help enterprise and B2B SaaS teams find the right opportunities for AI and turn them into well-designed products.

  • AI Discovery & Strategy

    Find the right opportunities for AI.

    Not every workflow needs AI. We help teams identify where AI can make a difference, rethink existing workflows, and explore promising ideas through rapid prototyping.

  • AI Experience Design & Delivery

    From concept to production-ready experience.

    AI introduces new challenges around trust, control, uncertainty, and new ways of working. We help teams turn complex AI capabilities into intuitive, coherent experiences by combining systems thinking, thoughtful design craft, and close collaboration with product and engineering.

  • Fractional Design Leadership

    Senior design leadership, when and where you need it.

    We embed with product organizations that need experienced leadership without making a full-time hire, helping define product direction, raise the quality bar, guide design teams, and align product, design, and engineering around complex AI initiatives.

Enterprise experience. AI fluency. Design craft.

Intentional AI

  • Human-led

    Users stay in control.

  • Personal

    Experiences adapt to people.

  • Transparent

    People understand what AI is doing.

Why us

We believe the best AI experiences require more than the right technology. They require strong product judgment, a deep understanding of people and workflows, and the design craft to bring it all together.

As more experiences can be generated in an instant, intentionality becomes a differentiator. We use AI in our own process, but we’re deliberate about what we create and why, bringing human judgment, taste, and attention to detail to every decision.

The team

We’re three senior designers with decades of combined industry experience designing complex digital products and leading design teams, from enterprise platforms at organizations like Meta, Cisco, Accenture, Globant, and the Inter-American Development Bank to AI-powered tools built from the ground up. Between us, we cover the full arc of the work: product strategy and design leadership, interaction and visual craft, and the hands-on use of AI tooling. Because we’re deliberately small, the people you meet are the people doing the work.

Where Malva comes from

Malva is Spanish for mallow, a resilient wildflower that grows in Texas, California, and Uruguay, the three places our team calls home. It thrives in heat, drought, and hard terrain. So do we, finding clarity where there’s friction.

Our identity borrows from nature to talk about technology. Topographic lines map a landscape much like an AI model finds its way to a solution, step by step. Natural on the surface, intelligent underneath: that’s how we believe AI experiences should feel.

Who we work with

We partner with enterprise and B2B SaaS teams at any stage of their AI journey from exploring where AI fits to improving experiences already in the hands of users.
