By who?
Product Therapy Studios is led by designer and founder Ben Pieratt ⇱ ⇱:
“Juggling the variables needed to put a dent in the universe is a rare and lonely position – it’s hard enough to keep all the parts moving let alone get anyone to understand what you’re trying to do.
Becoming a successful designer within the manic dream world of venture-funded tech has meant developing my own approach to understanding genius at the edge of comprehensibility.
Talent finds value in offloading their thoughts and hearing them reflected back because this allows them to step back from holding it together and see the whole picture for themselves. Even in absence of domain expertise, situations will open themselves to new understanding within a few moments of deep empathy and inquiry.
I’m very excited to now offer these singular moments of abstract utility as a primary deliverable. If you are building something great and feel stuck, I would love to help.

“I have worked with Pieratt on naming, branding, and product design over four companies, from seed stage to acquisition. Again and again, he's consistently been five years ahead and one light year out on vision, technology, and culture.”
