EAT × a16z Speedrun — Proposal
7.10.2026
EAT × a16z
Speedrun
A dedicated senior sprint pod turning EAT's strategy and narrative into five complete brand systems, Demo Day decks and one-page landing pages.
Flavor becomes the design execution partner for the full five-brand cohort.
We translate EAT's strategy, narrative and creative direction into high-craft brand systems, Demo Day deck designs and one-page landing pages — all delivered as clean, structured Figma files. Kickoffs roll across the program as founders select EAT.
Six phases. One brand system as the single source of truth.
-
01.
Brief Immersion & Research
Brief immersion, market and competitor research, visual references and internal exploration. Strategic interpretation from a design perspective, aligned with EAT before development.
-
02.
Two Creative Directions
Two genuinely distinct routes, by different senior designers — concept, rationale, logo exploration, color, type and graphic language. Two points of view, not two variations.
-
03.
Founder Selection & Brand System
The selected route becomes a complete identity: logo suite, color, typography, graphic language, core assets, applications, usage guidance and a structured Figma brand file.
-
04.
Demo Day Deck Design
Deck visual system, slide layouts and full deck on EAT-provided content (~15–25 slides). Visual storytelling, refinement after consolidated feedback and a final Figma file.
-
05.
Landing Page Design
One page per brand on the approved system — desktop and mobile, UI structure on EAT inputs, structured Figma handoff. Development is owned by EAT.
-
06.
File Organization, QA & Handoff
Clean, organized files with structured pages, clear naming and reusable components. QA before handoff, prepared for EAT's AI-powered pipeline.
A senior sprint pod — leadership and craft in one structure.

Flavor joins founder-facing and a16z-facing presentations when needed, with EAT leading the relationship. One consolidated founder-facing revision round per major deliverable · formal approvals between phases · hard change freeze after Alumni Demo Day.
Brand strategy · positioning · naming · copywriting · founder or client management · front-end and back-end development · motion design · complex illustration · 3D · additional landing pages · third directions · post-approval redesigns · deck expansion beyond the agreed range · extra revision rounds. Scoped separately if needed.
Includes the dedicated senior team, full design execution scope, brand systems, deck design, landing page design, structured Figma handoff and participation in key reviews. Proposal validity: 7 days.
Clarity, senior leadership and craft consistency — five brands, one dedicated pod.
Whenever a stage depends on client approval, a period of up to 03 (three) days is granted for approval and/or indication of justified changes to be carried out by Flavor, with each stage deadline renewed in the event of requested changes. The Client may request the agreed rounds of revisions per deliverable; extraordinary or unjustified requests are subject to acceptance by Flavor and may result in additional charges. All other rules and conditions are described in the corresponding Service Agreement.
