Juggle is an app for fractionals and solo operators, the people who left the org chart. It holds the context of their work, from meetings and notes to tasks and clients, and surfaces what matters next, unprompted. Gev Design led it end to end: the brand and poster-first identity, the product design and build of the native macOS app, the marketing site that carries it, and the motion set that puts the product's own behaviour on screen.

A tool for the business of one

Juggle is built for people who run a business of one: consultants, fractional leaders, and solo operators juggling multiple clients, back-to-back meetings, and a to-do list that lives everywhere and nowhere. The product listens to client calls, organises the follow-ups by client, and prompts its user before anything slips, automatically and unprompted.

Nothing on the market was built for that person. The brand had to feel as direct and unbothered as the promise: bold, structural, and confident. Never soft, artisanal, or SaaS-generic.

Constraint is the identity

The answer was a poster-first system modelled on 1930s American industrial food packaging: bold, flat, and unapologetically loud. Constraint carries the identity: one cobalt brand field, red used only to bookend the argument, white to open and close, and two typefaces split strictly by role, a heavy display face for the poster statements and a clean grotesque for everything else. No gradients, no shadows, no rounded corners.

Against that loud shell, the product's own screens run a second, calmer palette, warm paper instead of poster colour. The contrast is the pitch: the world is noisy, the product is quiet.

We designed and built the Mac app

Beyond the brand, Gev Design designed and built the product itself: a native macOS app that sits on the desktop, listens to client calls straight from the machine with no meeting bot in the room, and files every promise under the right client the moment the call ends. Recording and storage stay on the user's own Mac; transcription and extraction run through zero-retention APIs.

Designing and building it were the same job. Every screen was drawn against what the app could actually do, so the interface promises nothing the software does not already deliver.

The site, set in motion

Every motion piece animates the site's own mechanisms rather than reaching for generic effects: the hero's rising tide, the tired eyes of the problem statement, the client roster, the footer's hidden tile puzzle. Each was rebuilt as frame-stepped animation so the type stays razor-sharp and every loop closes cleanly.

The whole pitch, in one film

The full homepage argument was cut as a single kinetic-type film: the pain, the turn, and the ask, carried on the site's own colour grammar and closing on the mark juggling its own arrow.

In private beta

Juggle is in private beta. The system holds end to end, from the loud poster brand to the calm product screens, carried through the marketing site and the motion set: a single, confident voice for a tool built to give solo operators their week back.
