Brickell partnered with the founding team on the complete first impression: GTM narrative, a new logo and identity, a Webflow site, and a custom explainer video that makes the M100 legible in under a minute.

Partnership Timeline

Lerer Hippeau is one of the most active early-stage venture firms in New York, with a growing portfolio spanning enterprise and consumer technology. As the firm’s investments, content, and public presence continued to expand, its website needed to evolve alongside them. Brickell was brought in to redesign and modernize the existing experience, creating a faster, more dynamic platform that better showcases the firm’s portfolio, highlights the people and companies behind its momentum, and reflects a more accessible approach to early-stage venture capital.

Foundational Website Partnership

We began by supporting Lerer Hippeau’s existing digital presence, helping maintain and develop the site as the firm continued to grow its platform and public voice. This phase focused on evolving the experience within the existing framework, supporting core content areas and setting the stage for a more intentional next chapter.

Next-Generation Brand Experience

That collaboration led into development of a new Webflow experience designed to better reflect the firm’s voice and momentum. Together, we built a refreshed site centered around clearer storytelling and more dynamic content across portfolio, team, news, and subscription touchpoints, resulting in a platform that feels more current, flexible, and distinctly LH.

Partnership Timeline

Our long-term partnership with Craft Ventures spans multiple phases of growth. Since 2023, we’ve worked alongside their team as a trusted go-to-market partner, supporting everything from website to platform, investment, marketing, and launch assets. As their needs evolved, we continued to adapt—helping Craft Ventures consistently show up with clarity, speed, and impact.

Onboarding & Craft Hackaithon Branding

Craft partnered with us for initial onboarding, including website design support and visual assets for Craft Hackaithon—a collaborative initiative bringing technical teams together to build, ship, and compete. This phase laid the groundwork for a long-term partnership.

Website Revamp & Brand Refresh

In 2024, we led a full website revamp and brand refresh for Craft—reworking key pages, tightening the narrative, and modernizing the visual system. We designed and developed the site in Webflow, ran A/B tests to validate performance improvements, and supported ongoing upkeep to keep the platform current as Craft’s initiatives evolved.

Platform & Portfolio Support

Our role expanded into ongoing support across Craft’s platform team and broader ecosystem. We delivered decks, web updates, social and event assets, and narrative support—while helping Craft’s portfolio companies translate complex products into clear positioning, GTM-ready messaging, and high-converting digital experiences.

Ongoing Platform & Website Evolution

We continue partnering with Craft as an embedded creative + development team—evolving key pages, refining narrative and positioning, and supporting ongoing platform initiatives. In parallel, we continue to support Craft’s portfolio with launch-ready brand systems, websites, and fundraising/GTM collateral as new investments and priorities emerge.

Brand & Platform Redefined

With Grid entering its next phase of growth, we partnered again to lead a complete brand transformation — including a new identity, logo, and website. This ongoing collaboration is focused on redefining how Grid shows up as a more established and scalable SaaS product.

Brand Identity

The identity was designed to feel credible, advanced, and distinctly aviation-led. Every element supports Skyband’s core promise: helping aircraft navigate with confidence when GPS alone is not enough.

A restrained colour palette, precise typography, technical linework, and high-altitude imagery create a system that feels intelligent without becoming overly complex.

//01

Built for resilient navigation

The experience makes Skyband’s role immediately clear: providing an independent navigation layer that helps aircraft maintain trusted positioning during GPS disruption, interference, or uncertainty.

//02

Designed for aviation trust

Aviation buyers expect precision, credibility, and proof. The visual system uses structured layouts, technical details, and confident messaging to reinforce Skyband’s safety-first positioning.

//03

Aligned with real users

The website speaks directly to pilots, operators, manufacturers, and aviation leaders, translating complex navigation technology into clear operational benefits.

Insights

Skyband operates in a category where trust is essential, but the technology can be difficult to explain. The core challenge was to simplify the story without reducing its technical credibility.The strategy focused on three priorities: establish the risk of GPS dependency, explain Skyband’s independent verification layer, and connect the technology to safer, more resilient aviation.

"We were referred to Brickell by General Catalyst and did their Startup Program sprint. Matt and Luke took the time to understand our complex product and in a matter of weeks we went from 0 to 1 and launched our company with a logo, website, and explainer video that is able to reach a diverse set of customers and personas. Within a day of going live, the website generated real customer leads and we received numerous compliments from our Go To Market partners. Matt and Luke are able to take ideas in a founders head and make them real. We look forward to working with them on future marketing projects."
