Design System Audit

Find what's actually broken in your design system

If your components feel inconsistent, your system is hard to maintain, or your team is solving the same problems differently every sprint, this is where to start.

Book an intro call

This is for you if:

  • Your component library has become inconsistent or hard to trust
  • Designers and developers are solving the same UI problems differently
  • Accessibility issues keep surfacing late
  • Your system exists, but isn't working the way it should

Most teams start here.

Most teams try to fix their system by adding more.

More components. More documentation. More rules. That usually makes things worse.

Because the real problem isn't what's missing, it's what's already there, and how it's structured. Until that's clear, every fix creates more inconsistency.

At the end of the audit, you'll have:

  • A clear view of what's inconsistent and why
  • A breakdown of accessibility risk at the component level
  • A prioritized list of system issues
  • Specific recommendations for fixing each issue
  • A roadmap your team can actually follow

No guesswork. No overbuilding. Just clarity.

What's included

  • Component consistency analysis (visual and code-level)
  • Accessibility risk assessment (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 AA)
  • Design token structure and naming review
  • Documentation quality and coverage
  • Prioritized remediation roadmap

How it works

  1. Share access: Send your Storybook, Figma, or repo. No special prep needed.
  2. Audit: I review your system across consistency, accessibility, tokens, documentation, and handoff quality.
  3. Report: You receive a structured report with findings ranked by severity and clear recommendations.
  4. Debrief: We walk through the report together so you leave knowing exactly what to fix first, and why.

Accessibility issues start in your components, not in QA.

A button without keyboard support. A color token that hardcodes a value. A modal that breaks focus. When those components are reused, so are the problems.

This audit identifies the system-level decisions creating those issues, so you can fix them at the source.

Design System Audit pricing

Most teams lose more than this every month to inconsistency, rework, and unclear decisions. Fixing the system once is almost always cheaper than continuing to work around it.

Where this fits

Most teams use the audit as a starting point. From there, we:
