Both, weighted toward implementation. If you need original product design from research onward, hire a designer; if you need design intent shipped faithfully and fast, this hybrid is the better value.
Teams with a quality gap between mockups and shipped screens benefit most. One strong hybrid often resolves months of design-review friction between the two groups.
Shipped interfaces, not static mockups: live products or recorded interactions, ideally with a before-and-after story. Attention to detail in their own portfolio site is a surprisingly reliable signal.
