15 Years of Designmodo

Fifteen years – a major milestone and yet it has arrived so quickly.

From the very beginning, Designmodo was rooted in the passion of an enthusiast determined to bring value to the digital world – an idea that became a small blog featuring tutorials and design resources.

Over time, step by step, it grew into a platform, then into a family of tools, and finally into a global team and community. And despite all these transformations and evolutions over the years, Designmodo remains devoted to its core purpose – to bring value by helping people become better in what they do, every day.

In 2020, we celebrated our 10-year anniversary and shared with you, our loyal audience, how everything began, the good and the bad of our early experiments, the cost of independence, and the excitement of launching our first products.

Now, five years on, it’s the time to speak about our most valuable resource: our people. Those who were behind and next to Designmodo from the very beginning. And those who joined us along the way – the team who builds, the community who contributes, and the customers who guide everything we do.

Independence and Trust

Designmodo remains a fully independent company, built without investors or external funding. And despite all the complications this involves, remaining independent feels like the right decision at the moment: it allows us to grow with our own rhythm, stay honest to our vision and keep full control over our products and customer experience, and what’s most important – to have the freedom of making long-term decisions with the end user in mind.

Independence has never been the easiest path, but for us it has been the most meaningful one, because at Designmodo, we believe in long-term value over short-term results.

The Team

Behind every feature and update is a group of people who work hard to achieve their mission: to make digital creation simpler, faster, and more human.

Our team has grown steadily in recent years, welcoming new talent and perspectives from all around the world. In 2025 alone, six new colleagues joined us, bringing fresh ideas, energy, and care for our valued customers.

Building an amazing team has always been our strength, and today we’re happy in the knowledge that we have a global, multicultural, fully remote team connected by trust, curiosity, and the desire to bring value.

Today, the Designmodo team is spread across the entire world – the Republic of Moldova, Spain, the United States, Romania, Armenia, Ukraine, Turkey, Uzbekistan, Argentina, Norway, Indonesia, Ethiopia, Pakistan, Serbia, and Georgia, among others. And although we work from different corners of the world, it feels like we’re side by side. Each and every person here plays an essential role. Everyone is responsible for their own work, accountable for their results, and encouraged to grow. This team structure allows us to work independently, but also to stay united and focused.

So — here’s to the best team ever! A heartfelt thank you for your passion, dedication, and consistency. Let’s Designmodo and keep it moving forward!

The Community

Our community has always been part of Designmodo’s culture. Since the first days, we have valued our users as co-creators and have taken their voices into consideration.

Every piece of feedback, every suggestion, and every message from our customers helps us see things from a new perspective. Many of our most appreciated updates started as a simple support request, an idea, or a problem kindly shared by someone who believed in our team, in our products.

We’ve seen designers, marketers, developers, and entrepreneurs use Designmodo in ways we never imagined! Some of them have been with us since the very beginning; others discovered us just recently. And together, they shape Designmodo’s path and evolution.

Here’s to the best community ever! Thank you so much for your genuine support and feedback over the years. You taught us to listen carefully, simplify constantly, and never stop improving.

What We’ve Built Together

Five years ago, we couldn’t have imagined many of the products that exist today.

What began as an abstract “what if?” evolved into a suite of independent tools, each born from curiosity, feedback, and the real needs of our users.

Designmodo

Designmodo.com continues to grow as a complete platform for building digital content. Over the years, it has become home to tools that help thousands of people design faster, communicate better, and build smarter.

Our email builder, Postcards, has become one of the most widely used tools for creating beautiful, responsive emails. Businesses of all sizes rely on it to produce consistent, high-quality email campaigns with less effort. Updates are released almost every week, bringing small improvements that make a big difference.

We’ve also introduced AI-powered features, designed not to replace creativity but to assist it, helping users complete repetitive tasks faster while keeping full control of their creative processes and designs.

The full redesign of the Designmodo platform a few years ago helped us better position ourselves in the market and present our products with improved clarity and consistency.

And with our website builder, Slides, we’ve recently released built-in hosting and new no-code features, moving toward a complete creation and publishing experience – everything in one place.

Pulsetic

Pulsetic.com was one of those projects that wasn’t on our roadmap five years ago but appeared naturally from our understanding of digital workflows. It was born from a simple observation: most existing monitoring tools were overpriced and overcomplicated. We built an alternative that is clear, fair, and efficient.

Today, Pulsetic.com is a comprehensive website monitoring service with status pages, badges, and incident management; designed for businesses, eCommerce, SaaS, and any online projects that rely on uptime.

The feedback has been incredibly positive; users appreciate its usability, transparent pricing, and the generosity of its free plan, and it has become an accessible and reliable option for teams who value simplicity and communication.

Static.app

Static.app started from the initiative to help Designmodo customers host the static sites and landing pages they built with our tools.

Since then, Static.app has evolved into a fully independent platform for static site hosting – fast, secure, and easy to use. Many of our users now rely on our hosting platform to publish and share their projects effortlessly.

And while some of our tools, like Slides, now offer built-in hosting, Static.app remains a great choice for users who prefer a standalone service.

Siter.io

Siter.io also wasn’t in our plans five years ago; it emerged naturally as the no-code movement grew and designers began looking for ways to build websites directly from their design tools.

Siter.io allows people to design and publish websites visually, with no developers or complex setup needed. We also developed a Figma plugin for Siter.io which is now used by more than 130,000 designers, and has become one of the most popular no-code integrations in the design community.

It may sound surreal, but what began as a small initiative is now a reliable tool that helps creatives every day move from website design concept to live website in just minutes.

Growth That Feels Human

Over the last five years, our numbers have grown: more users, more projects, more teammates. But what we value most is how we’ve grown – slowly, sustainably, and guided by people.

Every decision is made with long-term value in mind, every product is improved through real feedback, and every new release aims to make someone’s work easier.

And through all these challenging fifteen years, our mission at Designmodo hasn’t changed: we continue to bring value to the digital world and help people create and run things online with less friction.

Looking Ahead

Our next chapter focuses on refinement and quality. We continue to improve our existing products and integrate AI where it adds efficiency. We keep moving hand in hand with the latest technological progress while maintaining the human approach that has defined Designmodo’s culture since the very beginning.

We’ll keep building tools that are fast, simple, and reliable – tools that save time, reduce complexity, and make creativity flow naturally.

And we’ll keep doing it as we always have: independently, collaboratively, and with care for the people who use our products.

A Heartfelt Thank You

To our talented team, for your passion, dedication, and focus in both storms and peaceful times.

To our inspiring community, for your insightful ideas and encouragement through the years.

To our valued customers, for your genuine trust and support through every iteration and update.

Fifteen years of Designmodo is not just a company milestone; it’s a shared achievement of all of us together – our team, our community, our customers – thousands of people around the world who believe in the same idea: design and creation should be accessible to everyone.

A heartfelt thank you for being part of our story.

Let’s keep creating together. Let’s Designmodo!
