Close to the people. Close to the code.
I trained as a graphic designer, which is where I learned to care about typography, spacing and detail. Product work taught me to research and design systems, and code taught me to ship them. Today I’m the sole designer at DealStack, designing and building private capital software. Before that I led the design team at Alerzo.

How I workResearch · Systems · Design engineeringSee howTen years. Many industries.
One way of working.
Private capital now; banks and payments, commerce, logistics, health, and sports and social before. B2B and consumer. Each time I start the same way: spend time with the people who use it, learn how they think, then make it calm.

What it’s like to work with me.
Four colleagues across product, engineering and marketing, in their own words, from my LinkedIn profile.
“Ayodeji is an outstanding talent with exceptional leadership skills. Working with him was a transformative experience, he not only brought out the best in everyone on the team… He is one of the rare multidisciplinary designers who seamlessly blends creativity with business strategy and insight.”
“Ayo is excellent at what he does, he takes feedback and in return, delivers results that beat one’s imaginations.”
“Ayodeji is a consummate professional who can make any marketing or design team more complete. Aside from being a highly skilled creative designer, he wears other hats and has shown great managerial potentials.”
“Ayo is absolutely one of the most creative minds I have ever worked with. Very easy to brainstorm and communicate with and very easily becomes an asset to the team and organisation.”
Beyond the day job.
A few companies and products of my own, mentoring, and a visual collection. The rest is on the About page.
Ventures and side projects
Companies I’ve founded, and products I build in my own time.
Empocreat (The EOC) builds digital products, brands and experiences with clarity and purpose. I founded it in 2016 and have directed creative strategy for 20+ brand and product projects across fintech, education, consumer tech and e-commerce.
MoveMoni compares exchange rates and fees across international money-transfer providers in real time, so people can see who is cheapest for their route before they send. Users save 3–5% on average on international transfers.
Clariti is a personal finance companion that helps people track spending, budget smarter and take control of their money in one simple app. It started inside MoveMoni and now stands on its own.
A free, educational world map built on the Equal Earth projection. It folds into a globe, shows what Mercator distorts, and lets you compare countries at their real size. Made for classrooms first, after the UN General Assembly voted in September 2026 to encourage equal-area maps.
Cleap turns a product’s code, database, infrastructure and integrations into one live, zoomable map, so people who build products without reading code can still see how everything fits together.
An open benchmark for one question: given a piece of code, how good is a plain-English description of it? Labels are scored on accuracy, specificity and whether someone who can’t read code would actually understand them. It grew out of Cleap and is at the scaffold stage: a seed set of samples and the scoring pipeline, with real model runs still to come.
