Chris was honestly fantastic to work with - I couldn’t recommend Telescope enough. Amazing attention to detail and skills across a broad range of areas from web design, to app design and more.
Co-founder, Runna
We chose Telescope because they continuously demonstrated the skills that we value highly - proactive and honest communication, open collaboration and deep expertise in their field.

Hi! My name is Chris Ashby, a designer, startup advisor and product nerd of 15+ years. My passion is helping the next generation of startups thrive and grow.
I founded Telescope to do just that, and for the last 4 years I've operated Telescope entirely solo delivering incredible results for incredible startups with a unique AI-native approach.
Strategic alignment is the starting point. This is how we prioritise ideas, explore new opportunities, and deliver on designs.
Design should support your business, not harm it. That means moving fast, iterating faster, and delivering exactly what's needed.
Leverage insight from advising over 50+ startups on design and product to find new, unconventional opportunities.
New AI tools means long tedious research phases, endless design variations and boxy wireframes are a thing of the past.
