With over 16 years of Moving Human Experiences forward, YellowSlice has grown to be one of India’s leading strategic UI/UX Design agencies. It has evolved from being a niche UX/UI design studio into a full-fledged digital experience innovation partner for both global and local MSMEs, startups, and unicorn brands. Since its inception in 2009, it has delivered over 2,000 projects across various industries, including BFSI, SaaS, e-commerce, real estate, edtech, and healthcare, impacting millions of users worldwide.
The Journey of A Thousand Miles Starts With A Step.
The story of Yellow Slice began in 2009, at a time when digital design in India was still finding its feet. Websites and apps were mainly functional, and they lacked empathy, usability, and the kind of visual sophistication that could truly elevate user experiences and improve service delivery.
The Co-Founder, Kishor Fogla, spotted this gap early enough and turned it into an opportunity to make design a key driver in business Innovation. With a small team, limited resources, and a lot of conviction, Yellow Slice was born, focusing on creativity to make the digital interface viable, feasible, usable & desirable to the users..
Today, it has grown into a 100-member team of designers, researchers, strategists, and technologists. Along the way, Yellow Slice has partnered with some of India’s most leading brands — including Paytm Money, ICICI Direct, Airtel, and BigBasket to design digital products that deliver real business value and improve user experience.
The company maintains its growth through its ability to transform alongside the fast-changing digital environment. Yellow Slice maintains its leadership position through continuous innovation, starting from basic web interfaces to advanced research-based designs.
What Sets Yellow Slice Apart
Many people view competition as a threat, but it is an opportunity for YellowSlice to stand out and communicate its value with its research-centric and strategic design process. Many can design screens, but few can combine strategy, behavioural psychology, and visual appeal into functional, usable and useful solutions.
Every project begins with a deep understanding of user behaviour, client objectives, and market realities. This ensures that the outcomes we create are not only visually engaging but also business-driven, measurable, and built to last. They have built an ecosystem approach with ventures like DesignO’Sure Academy, DRILL, and YS Tech to extend 360° value to clients in ways that competitors cannot easily replicate. Add to this their commitment to technological advancement with a focus on AI, AR/VR, and accessibility-first design.
What is YellowSlice without its people and their culture? Their greatest advantage is the culture. The mission to move human experience forward is not a tagline but a philosophy that drives every decision. It’s this mindset that pushes every member to curiosity, collaboration, and continuous learning.

Over the past 16 years, Yellow Slice has delivered researchdriven and user-centric solutions across various industry verticals, from unicorn startups to Fortune 500 giants or Eddtech, Fintech, D2C, etc. The company demonstrates exceptional adaptability in handling various business sectors, as each industry presents its own distinct set of challenges.
