They just want to sell you something…
They just want to sell you something and they don't even care what. Had a chat with a man who seemed genuinely interested and wanted to help and never spoke about money then sends me an email asking me to pay 2k for something I don't need then follows up with an email asking for 5k for an app that might not work, I made it myself for free.
Seeing as I got a smart answer, I have not used AI to code my app, I used myself thank you.

Reply from Innovate Design
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are pleased to hear that your innovation coach spent time discussing your application idea and exploring the potential paths forward for your project.
Our recommendations and pricing structures reflect the requirements of commercial-grade product development. While automated, free code-generation tools allow individuals to build basic functional models quickly, these platforms do not produce professionally engineered or security-tested infrastructure suitable for the public market.
Industry data highlights the severe commercial risks associated with automated and non-professional software development:
A security assessment from the first quarter of 2026 found that 91.5% of sampled automated applications contained at least one security vulnerability traceable to software errors.
Independent studies show that roughly 10% of platforms built using automated generators actively leak personal user data due to unverified default settings.
Multiple newly launched applications built with automated tools have suffered immediate data breaches within days of launch, exposing thousands of user records, private messages, and database tokens because standard security protocols were missing.
When launching a product to the commercial market, robust programming, intellectual property protection, and rigorous vulnerability testing are essential to protect your venture from legal and financial liabilities. We wish you the best of luck with the future of your project.

I had an idea
I had an idea, I needed to move this forward to an invention, I heard of this company called Innovation Design. I contacted them for a pack which arrived promptly and then got involved with Emma followed by George who have been a delight to deal with and efficient supportive by phone and video meetings. George has exceeded all my expectations with how he has bought the project along. Within a few months we’ve turned an idea into an invention and now it’s on its way to pattern stage. I feel value for money has been excellent. I could not be happier with coaching and help that they’ve offered.

A cautionary tale
I wouldn’t go as far as saying that innovate design is a scam because I do think they could be a useful support to the right person/business.
However, if you are an average joe like myself that has an idea that they need support to get into fruition then you need to approach with caution.
YOU will be expected to cover all costs in getting your project completed, including a £400 market research spreadsheet which I could have done myself and avoided paying that which in this climate is a lot of money.
Especially when it’s time to come to the next stage of branding which is going to be around £3000 and once that’s completed you are going to be expected to pay for the manufacturing of this product which could be tens of thousands of pounds. So before you pay 400 of your hard earned money for a PowerPoint presentation..
Ask yourself whether your idea is promising enough that you are going to pay upwards of tens of thousands of pounds to get your project off the ground.
Again, I don’t think it’s a scam but Innovate Design, do need to be more transparent on the stages and payments required before taking people’s hard earned money from them.
It is apparent that they were just out to get my money from the get go as they haven’t bothered to chase up ‘my excellent’ idea since I clarified I would not be able to fork out the thousands required.
Does leave a bad taste in your mouth, I would really hate for someone else to make the same mistake I did.

Unprompted review
A must for anyone attempting to launch a product.
The pack came quickly and was very informative and reassuring. I was happy to continue with my idea and was happy to submit it knowing I was in good hands. A very positive step forward in these early days of this project. I am so grateful for trusted assistance. I recommend using Innovative Designs wholeheartedly.

Amazing design consultancy
I had an amazing experience with Innovate Design! From start to finish, the team was professional, creative, and incredibly responsive. They truly listened to my ideas and brought them to life even better than I imagined. The quality of their work and attention to detail really stood out. I couldn’t be happier with the results and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch design services!
A special thanks to Emma (my coach) and Gabriel (my designer) who made this dream a reality.
Highly skilled and talented people!
