Soley was coming out of stealth mode and needed to promote their drug discovery technology. The biotech startup had tried to launch something the year before but was unsuccessful as the company was not ready to come out of stealth. A year later, as the company grew, it was ready to start. Soley Therapeutics realized it needed to work on its logo and branding before tackling a new website. The company realized it would need brand messaging and storytelling to clearly explain their drug discovery platform. The Soley team required a full-service digital agency that could tackle all of the aforementioned needs.
The Details:
Our biotech branding experts got started working on the logo and brand design for Soley Therapeutics. The company had a logo they had started and had some ideas, but it needed to be evolved to create the impact the client wanted it to have. Soley is named for “Soleil” in French, meaning sun. The company wanted to implement that meaning into its logo. Our team went through a six-week process with the biotech to create something to help them bring their vision to life.
Next, we helped the drug discovery startup with the messaging and design for its new go-to-market website. Clear, concise, yet catchy language invites the website audience to want to learn more. The website’s messaging and design tell a story, which was Soley’s goal. The company’s founders wanted to excite the community about their new drug discovery platform.

They offer a stronger sense of work-life balance than other accounting firms, but needed to convey that information in a genuine, humanized way. At the same time, they needed to continue to assure clients that they can support their startup life science companies with their accounting and HR needs.
We worked closely with a team from Browne Consulting Group to identify the core needs of this new website, and to convey all of the necessary information to different audiences simultaneously. We meticulously researched the nuances and trends of both biotech and accounting industry websites, incorporated design elements from both into Browne Consulting Group’s new site.
To demonstrate the benefits of working for this Cambridge accounting firm, our team of copywriters worked with current Browne Consulting Group employees to create case studies about their experience. Through these profiles, employees shared about their increased work-life balance and opportunities for career growth. Throughout the rest of the site, there is information about the tangible benefits of working for Browne Consulting Group, such as shorter work weeks and attractive bonus options.
In order to convey Browne Consulting Group’s expertise and competency to prospective clients and venture capital companies, our design team created a custom, interactive graphic that outlines the accounting firm’s process.

Nanotein had a short timeframe for this project, as they wanted their new website ready for launch before attending a biotechnology conference at the end of April. This was not a problem for our digital agency. Working on an accelerated timeline, we worked closely with the team at Nanotein to outline their goals, identify their ideal aesthetic, and understand their voice. Our designer and our copywriter worked closely with the client and with one another to craft every element of this custom website. They spared no detail and ensured that the layout, imagery, and text of each page was suited to the target audience.
Most importantly, Nanotein needed an easily accessible page where interested scientists could request a free sample of their product. The feedback they receive from peers will allow them to improve and expand their technology and is crucial for the future of their work. We were very deliberate about including a call to action in several places throughout the site where potential users could easily request this free test kit.
Nanotein is in the early stages of introducing its technology to the scientific community at large. As their company evolves and their priorities shift, they can easily change their website to reflect that.

Amberstone needed to convey its message to a wide array of readers: potential investors, prospective employees, hopeful patients, and peers in the industry. To achieve this, the language of the website needed to be thorough enough to explain their science, but basic enough to be understandable for readers with no scientific background.
To achieve this, we focused heavily both on imagery and on wording to carefully craft this content with all audiences in mind. Visitors to the site can read about Amberstone’s work in a language that is both informative and accessible, regardless of background. For investors or scientific peers, the “science” page of Amberstone’s website shares more details of their current research. On this page, there is also a call to action button to collaborate with Amberstone.

This homepage is beautiful, sophisticated, and impactful. Don’t take our word for it, though. Its design, functionality, and other outstanding features earned our digital marketing agency a Web Excellence Award for an outstanding website for bioscience.
The Details:
When Alamar needed a custom website to recruit investors and subsequently employees and clients, they reached out to our digital agency. The Biosciences company had a four-week window and a limited budget for this project. Our UX and web designers worked closely with biotech organization to design the look and feel of the website and came up with several options to move forward. The Ladybugz team designed, developed, and launched this custom website within the timeframe. Alamar noticed an uptick in inquiries almost immediately.
Ladybugz created a website that continues to evolve with Alamar Biosciences as their needs shift. After the launch of their website, they acquired $80 million in funding. The technology they have been able to develop could have an enormous impact on healthcare overall. Their website is sophisticated enough to highlight their success in the field of bioscience.
Currently, the Silicon Valley-based biotech is working on an integration with Greenhouse to attract and convert new employees. That feature will be launched in a phase 2 approach in early 2022.
A Website with Focused Design with a Call to Action:
Alamar Biosciences needed a site that would highlight its technology and attract investors and employees. That’s why we created a homepage that guides users to three main pages: Technology, Team, and Careers.
This homepage is elegantly simple. With just two clicks, site visitors can read about Alamar’s impressive technology and learn how to join their growing team.
