You've got a 404 on the link in the top left corner (mobile).

Is this site associated with Remy Sharp?

Also, when scanning your prices real quick on mobile I saw "$6,000/mo" and just about noped out. I understand what you're trying to do here, but maybe you need to rethink the placement of this comparison price?

I'm immediately put off by any service that uses the word unlimited in marketing material. Whether that's "unlimited" bandwidth, storage space, use of someone's time, or all you can eat hot wings.

Some criticisms: The site is a one page brochure site, it feels odd for a service of this scale. Your example images aren't clickable and there's no explanation of what I'm looking at exactly. Email sounds like a bad format for handling project management, it's difficult to follow an email chain to figure out what was agreed on etc, email is a very bad single-source-of-truth for project details.

I'm being critical because I don't think it's a bad idea, I just think the execution could do with polishing. There are companies that could perhaps benefits from this idea, but I would be put off by this page.

p.s. you're missing a favicon.

The site is bare because they've been trying to create a recurring-revenue product out of design services.

There's some history and discussions in the (many) older posts by the user[1].

(I think trying to create a repeatable model for services is great BTW -- helps support smaller lifestyle business, IMO, which we need more of.)

Your copy says:

"Instead of paying $1,800+ per project, or hiring an in-house UI designer with a $70,000+/year salary, Fairpixels Pro gives you the best of both worlds at a fraction of the cost."

At the same time, your cheapest plan is $1750/mo. I get that it's "technically" under $1800, but are you expecting startups to have multiple projects per month to make the math work?

Notice that it also says "≤ 4 Business Day Turnaround Time", so technically $1750 buys you 7.5 projects every month.

Whether they can actually deliver finished designs every 4 days is a different question.
