About

LightUp Designs was founded by Alex Swerdlow at the University of Chicago in 2018. After successfully launching several businesses of his own, he saw a lack of affordable custom tooling for systematic data collection, management and automations for small and medium businesses. Small teams can benefits from automations most.

LightUp Designs fills in the gap, providing small and medium size businesses the power of tooling large scale organizations have entire teams to run.
