From day one, Surge needed more than a brand that looked good. They needed design that built credibility, earned trust, and scaled with them as they grew. They needed a design partner that ensures they stand out in the crowded world of AI infrastructure.
They chose Konpo. More than a vendor, we became their plug-and-play design team: senior talent embedded alongside leadership, shaping everything from their first identity to their website, product, and systems. At every stage, Surge found in Konpo a partner they could depend on.

Our collaboration has become a long-term partnership that helped Surge grow from early explorations to a brand adopted by the leading AI and technology companies and a product internationally recognized and awarded.
We built a bold, distinctive identity in an industry defined by sameness, designed a product experience that balanced delight with enterprise-grade usability, and crafted a design system to keep them consistent as they scaled.
As Surge now looks to fetch a valuation of over $15 billion in its first capital raise, we’re leading phase two of their branding. The goal: to build a brand that not only wins attention and trust, but one that matches the ambition and credibility of a company operating at that scale.

ComPsych needed a rebrand built to win. Younger competitors with sharper, design-driven branding were pulling attention away from the world’s largest provider of employee assistance programs (EAPs), a company supporting over 130 million people across 190 countries. They turned to Konpo to make sure their brand matched their scale and credibility. The mission: win back market share, turn reputation into loyalty, and defend their position at the top.

Every element of the ComPsych rebrand was built to show the strength of a category leader, but for today’s market and tomorrow’s. The new logo centers on a glowing core, with expanding ripples signalling growth, support, and scale. Their signature blue was sharpened with a modern palette designed to stand out with confidence, not noise. But what’s a rebrand without discipline to execute it? We built a dedicated brand hub that gave ComPsych everything, from logos to illustrations to voice, to apply their new identity consistently across 75,000+ organizations worldwide. And we delivered it beyond our original scope. The result: a brand that doesn’t just keep up with the competition, but takes back the lead. With a stronger identity and a system to sustain it, ComPsych now has the edge to defend its dominance and keep winning in a design-driven market.
