Best UX Design Agencies in Vienna (2026)

Introduction

Vienna has a compact but experienced UX design scene, and the nine agencies below cover most of what a product team is likely to need: user research and usability testing, app design and build, websites for cultural institutions, and interface work for industrial machines.

Much of the demand comes from the city’s own institutions. Banking apps are a large share of the work: All About Apps has worked on Erste’s George app and Raiffeisen’s Börse360°, and Erste Group’s George Invest and Hey George appear among the UX Design Awards autumn 2025 winners. Public transport is another strong client base, with WienMobil and Westbahn’s WestBuddy travel assistant (launched across all routes in March 2026) both built by Vienna studios. Museums, the Staatsoper and insurers such as Wiener Städtische also commission a steady amount of digital product work. Most of the agencies here sit in the inner western districts, with a small cluster in Margareten.

Every agency on this list has an office in Vienna where the work is done in 2026. The list is unranked, since the right choice depends on whether you need research, design, engineering or all three.

The best UX design agencies in Vienna

1. Usecon

Independent · Wieden · usecon.com

Usecon has worked on user-centred design in Vienna since 2001 and reports more than 1,000 completed projects. It covers consulting for digital transformation, interaction design, development and AI, and it runs a regular programme of hackathons, including a Mobility and AI Hackathon with Advantage Austria in November 2025 and a Ski and Snow Hackathon in January 2026.

Its project list leans towards research and health. GAIN is a VR training project for nursing staff funded by the Austrian research agency FFG, and LogoLog turns Viktor Frankl’s logotherapy into an AI-based mental health app. On the commercial side, Usecon supported the Heubach Group with customer-facing processes and a new website after a merger.

2. Liechtenecker

Liechtenecker describes itself as a digital design and tech studio, running discovery, UX and UI design, frontend and backend development and product strategy under one roof. It also teaches: its UX Academy offers workshops on UX, strategy and accessibility.

Vienna’s cultural institutions feature heavily in its work. The studio has developed the Belvedere’s website, including ticket sales, since 2019, and delivered a new homepage and menu for the Wiener Staatsoper in 2025. Other clients include the Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien, Wien Info, Wiener Städtische, Swarovski Optik and the language app Lingvano, where it handles ongoing UX optimisation.

3. Ovos

Ovos combines web solutions with playful training: serious games, gamified learning platforms and interactive scenarios for corporate education. Its studio is in Neubau, with a second office in Stuttgart.

Two recent projects show the range. WestBuddy is a real-time travel assistant built into the Westbahn app and website, running on all routes since the southern line opened on 1 March 2026. For the Wiener Städtische Versicherungsverein’s 200th anniversary in 2025, Ovos built an immersive 3D timeline with React Three Fiber. Client logos on its site include A1, Siemens, the Goethe-Institut and Wiener Stadtwerke.

4. All About Apps

Its case studies include the ERSTE George app and web platform, Raiffeisen Digital’s Börse360° app, the ApoApp for the Austrian Chamber of Pharmacists, WienMobil and the Berlin WelcomeCard, built in Flutter. It suits clients who want design and engineering from one team over a long product life.

5. intuio

Independent · Josefstadt · intu.io

intuio is a UX specialist founded by Dr. Thomas Piribauer, who still runs it, and it has worked in the field since 2008. Its services run from product strategy, discovery and design sprints to interaction design, information architecture, prototyping and design systems.

The firm reports more than 250 international projects. Client testimonials on its site come from A1 Telekom Austria, Signal Iduna, Zeit Online and Hoerbiger, and its case figures include 1.5 million minutes a year saved at a call centre through simpler workflows. It is a good fit for teams that need research-led UX on an existing product.

6. Peschke Design

Independent · Währing · peschke.at

Peschke Design focuses on industrial UX: HMI and machine interface design, usability and ergonomics, and UX audits based on ISO 9241-110 and Nielsen’s heuristics. It also handles industrial and product design, which is unusual among Vienna UX firms.

Its recent work includes the CC300 control unit HMI for ENGEL, the TEMPAR interface redesign and a hunting app for ZEISS (more than 250,000 downloads), and energy management software for Vaillant. Austrian Airlines, Swarovski Optik, ÖAMTC and Siemens are also on its client list. The studio published a two-part series on haptic controls in HMI design in 2026.

7. Towa

Towa calls itself “The Digital Growth Company” and works across marketing, sales, commerce, service and IT, combining software development, UX and UI design, quality assurance and consulting. It has six locations, with its Vienna office on Schönbrunner Straße alongside Bregenz, Munich, Düsseldorf and Kraków.

Most of its clients are mid-sized industrial firms that it describes as hidden champions, so few are named. One that is public is Meusburger, whose automated ordering processes were covered by CIO in 2025. Towa also took part in the BVDW Internetagentur-Ranking 2025.

9. bitsfabrik

Independent · Margareten · bitsfabrik.com

Its work spans entertainment, tourism and health.

What to look for in a Vienna UX design agency

Decide first how much engineering you need. Some of the firms above, such as Usecon and intuio, are strongest at research, strategy and interaction design. Others, such as All About Apps, Tailored Apps and bitsfabrik, design and build apps and keep them running for years. Both models work, but a research-led agency will usually hand off to your developers or a build partner.

Look for work in your sector. Vienna studios have deep experience in banking apps, public transport, culture and industrial machinery, and the regulatory and accessibility demands differ a lot between them. Ask to see a case study close to your product and to speak to the client if possible.

Ask how the agency tests with users. Good proposals say how many participants will be recruited, in which language, and at what stages testing happens. For German-speaking audiences, check that research is run in German by people who can read the nuance in a session.

Finally, look at how the work moves between you and the agency. UX projects produce a lot of material: research recordings, interview notes, prototypes, design files and long feedback threads. Agencies that keep this in one shared place, with clear rounds of feedback and a record of what was decided, are easier to work with as a product evolves.

How Fabric helps UX design teams

Fabric gives a UX team one workspace for research, design files and client feedback, with AI search across all of it. The setup for UI and UX agencies is built around client spaces, so research notes, prototypes and design exports for each product sit together.

Research sessions become searchable. Audio and video transcription turns usability recordings into text with clickable timestamps, and search works by meaning across documents, images, PDFs and transcripts, so a team can find every session where users mentioned a particular screen. AI meeting notes record stakeholder calls without a bot joining.

For synthesis and early concepts, the canvas is an infinite whiteboard that can embed Figma files and video, which suits journey maps and affinity boards.

Feedback runs through shared links. Share a file or folder with a client as a commenter, and they can leave threaded comments without creating an account. With annotations, they can draw on a screen design and attach a comment to the drawing, leave timestamped comments on a prototype walkthrough video, or highlight text in a spec. The team marks each comment completed as it is resolved, so a review round works like a checklist. There is a short guide on getting client feedback on a design.

On Team plans, self-writing docs keep a page for each client up to date from meetings, Slack and the workspace, covering decisions, deliverables and open items. See plans for teams.
