Creative & Design Case Studies
Creative work is production work: rendering pipelines, drafting queues, campaign assets, content calendars. These anonymized client engagements show what changes when that production runs on dedicated remote creatives instead of stretched local teams or freelancer churn — a media team tripling content output at 70% lower staffing cost, a visualization studio doubling rendering throughput, an architecture practice cutting drafting costs 85% while drawings got faster.
Each study details the roles hired, the handoff and review workflow that kept quality control onshore, and the measured before/after. Client identities are withheld under NDA; the engagements and figures are real.

- Every engagement is real. Client names, locations and some identifying details are anonymised under NDA; roles, timelines and results are as delivered.
- Metrics are the client’s numbers. Cost savings compare the all-in Zedtreeo rate with the loaded cost of the equivalent local hire; operational metrics (turnaround, coverage, defect or denial rates) come from the client’s own systems before and after.
- “Results at a glance” is on every study — team composition, the operating change that made it work, and the measured outcome — followed by the anonymisation note and FAQs.
- The trial is the reference. Rather than a curated testimonial, every placement starts with a 5-day free trial on your real work — you evaluate the actual person and process before committing.
What the successful creative & design engagements had in common
- A named owner on the client side who set priorities weekly and reviewed output — the single biggest predictor of a good first quarter.
- Staff working inside the client’s own systems and standards from day one (no parallel tooling), under NDA and IP assignment.
- A first hire that ran the recurring, rules-based work first; scope widened only after the trial and first month proved the fit.
- Growth by adding seats to a working process rather than by rebuilding it — most multi-seat teams here started as one placement.
