Transformation Spotlights
We innovate on the bright side.
The Future of Garage Organization
The Future of the Smart Home
"We’re in financial services and saw Balance Innovation take an engineering and scientific approach to something intangible, using the same end-user mindset they might with a product and bring it to our business.
They dug into complex problems and helped simplify them. There was a ton of research and academic rigor to understand the stakeholders and know our goals – truly understanding the desires of both customers and the company – to be effective. Balance is about the long-term relationship. They are in it to make a difference."

Featured Work
Design That Makes Literacy Stick
Balance shaped Playaway’s approach to digital storytelling with Wonderbook and Playaway, which are the only physical products certified by CAST for Universal Design for Learning (UDL). In 2023, Playaway was acquired by Penguin Random House, proving that inclusive design delivers lasting value.
From One Blender to an Empire
Balance propelled Ninja beyond blenders to command the countertop. Our partnership drove over 750% sales growth, fueled by a steady stream of thoughtfully designed products that redefined kitchen convenience and positioned Ninja as one of today’s most trusted appliance innovators.
Protecting What Matters Most
Balance defined Moen’s smart water strategy, shaping a system designed to safeguard homes and families. Our work led to the launch of Flo, a technology that detects leaks in 60% of homes within 30 days and reduces water damage claims by 96%. Flo became the foundation of Moen’s smart water ecosystem.
Rewriting the Banking Experience
Balance partnered with Diebold Nixdorf to evolve from a traditional ATM maker into a service-led, software-enabled business. Our work supported global product development, digital transformation, and co-creation with banks, laying the foundation for a portfolio of physical products and digital service solutions
