Built for freelance designers

The design subcontractor
your overflow has been missing.

Slammed week? Vector tracing you don't want to bill hourly for? Second-pass executions eating your time? Subcontract cleanly to us at $399/month flat. Your client sees only your work. We disappear.

Senior freelancers should bill their best hours at $150/hour — not redraw logos for $40/hour. Send us the execution work; keep your premium time for premium work.

How freelancers use us

Three ways solo designers stay solo

Without burning out, hiring a junior, or saying no to good clients.

01

Overflow execution

When you're slammed and the queue is real. We execute the second-pass variants on designs you've already directed — keeping the creative control with you, taking the production hours off your week.

02

Vector tracing & file-prep

JPG-to-vector redraws, file-format conversions, print-ready exports, retina-scale exports for web. The work you don't want to bill hourly for — but still have to ship.

03

Production assets at scale

30 ad variants. 50 social posts. 12 deck slides. The volume executions your client expects but eat days of your week. Send the system; we ship the variants.

What we cover

The production work you'd rather not do yourself

Six categories that eat the most freelance hours.

Vector tracing & redraws

Customer logos in JPG/PNG converted to clean vector with Pantone-matched colours and outlined text. The unglamorous staple of freelance practice.

Vector tracing & redraws

File-prep & format conversions

Print-ready PDFs, retina exports, SVG conversions, animated-GIF builds. The 'just one more file format' work that eats afternoons.

File-prep & format conversions

Paid-ad variant sets

Meta, Google, TikTok, LinkedIn variant sets sized to every placement. Your hero direction; our production.

Paid-ad variant sets

Social content production

Carousel sets, single-post graphics, story templates. Refill your client's content pipeline without burning your nights.

Social content production

Deck design

Sales decks, investor decks, training decks. Google Slides or Keynote, your client's brand system applied page by page.

Deck design

Print-ready exports

Brochure layouts, business cards, conference one-pagers — print-ready PDFs with bleed, CMYK, outlined text.

Why freelancers pick us

Cheaper, faster, and quieter than the alternatives.

The structural differences from hiring help or rotating subcontractors.

Cheaper than a junior hire

$399/month flat covers more output than a $5,000/month junior. Without the management overhead, the laptop budget, or the awkward 'we don't have enough work this week' conversation.

White-label as your studio

No watermarks, no mentions of Digital Polo, no exposure of the workflow to your client. NDA on request, same-day signing.

Email-first — no portal to onboard a client into

You don't have to teach your client a new system. Briefs flow through email. Files arrive in email. The relationship stays exactly the way it was.

Freelancer FAQs

What solo designers ask before signing up

Straight answers — no marketing-speak.

Yes. White-label and reseller usage is included on the $399 Partner plan. Files ship unbranded with all source files (AI, EPS, PSD, PDF, Figma). You deliver to your client under your own studio name. No watermarks, no mentions of Digital Polo. Many of our customers are solo designers running a one-person studio with us as the production backbone.

Most freelancers use us as the execution layer for retainers they couldn't service alone. You handle creative direction, client meetings, brief shaping. We execute variants, redraws, file-prep, the long-tail production work that eats time you'd rather bill at premium rates. You stay the face of the relationship; we stay the silent partner.

Yes. We sign mutual NDAs on request before any sensitive client work begins. Use your template or ours. Typical turnaround on signing is one business day. Several of our long-term customers are freelancers serving Fortune 500 brands under NDA.

A junior designer in North America costs $50–70k/year loaded ($4,000–$5,800/month). A senior freelance designer for ad-hoc help costs $80–$150/hour ($1,200–$3,000/month at 10–20 hours). Our Partner plan is $399/month flat with unlimited tasks. The break-even is around 4 tasks a month — almost every freelance practice hits that volume by the second quarter.

Yes. Both plans are month-to-month, pause or cancel anytime. We see plenty of freelancers pause for a slow August and resume in September. No clawback, no penalty, no contract.

You talk to your client. We never talk to your client. If a client asks who's executing, that's your call to make — most freelancers describe their setup as 'a small team' or 'studio capacity'. Some go further and call us their senior production designer. Either is fine; the relationship stays yours.

Month-to-month. Pause or cancel anytime from your account, no penalty. 7-day money-back guarantee on the first month if you decide we're not the fit you needed.

Stay solo. Ship more. Disappear when you need to.

$399/month flat. 48-hour SLA. White-label as your studio, source files included. Pause anytime.
