Six Ways to Work With Us

No single model fits every business. These are the structures we actively offer, based on how mature your requirements are and how you want to manage delivery.

Fixed-Price Product Development

Best for: Well-defined scope, MVPs, feature builds

You get a defined scope, timeline and price up front. Ideal when requirements are clear and you need budget predictability — common for MVPs, single-feature builds and well-specified modernization projects.

  • Detailed scoping & estimation before contract sign-off
  • Milestone-based payment schedule
  • Fixed delivery timeline with change-request process for scope changes

Dedicated Engineering Team

Best for: Ongoing product development, startups scaling their roadmap

A full-time squad — engineers, QA, and optionally a product/tech lead — embedded in your workflow on a monthly retainer. Ideal for continuous product development where scope evolves sprint over sprint.

  • Monthly retainer, scalable up or down as your roadmap changes
  • Team works inside your existing tools (Jira, Slack, GitHub) as an extension of your org
  • Direct access to every team member — no black-box vendor management layer

Staff Augmentation

Best for: Teams that need specific skills without a full outsourced squad

Add vetted individual engineers — AI specialists, DevOps, mobile, QA — directly into your existing team, managed by your leads or ours. Ideal when you already have a team but need specific expertise or extra capacity fast.

  • Engineers onboard directly into your existing sprints and standups
  • Flexible ramp-up / ramp-down with short notice periods
  • No long-term lock-in — scale from 1 engineer to a full pod as needed

Product Engineering Partnership

Best for: Founders/teams who want a technical co-builder, not just a vendor

For early-stage products, we take on a broader technical-partner role — contributing to product strategy, architecture decisions and roadmap prioritization, not just executing a pre-defined spec.

  • Joint ownership of technical roadmap and architecture decisions
  • Proactive recommendations on scope, sequencing and technical trade-offs
  • Suited to founders who want a senior technical sounding board, not just execution

Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT)

Best for: Enterprises establishing a long-term in-house capability

We build the product and operate it with our team initially, then progressively transfer ownership, documentation and (where applicable) the delivery team to your organization — a structured path to an in-house capability without the slow ramp-up of hiring from zero.

  • Phased knowledge-transfer plan agreed at contract start
  • Full documentation, runbooks and architecture decision records handed over
  • Optional transition support during and after handover

Long-Term Support & Maintenance

Best for: Post-launch products needing ongoing reliability

For products already in production — ours or built elsewhere — we offer retained support covering bug fixes, security patches, performance monitoring and incremental feature development, with optional formal SLAs.

  • Defined response-time SLAs available for business-critical systems
  • Proactive monitoring & security patching, not just reactive bug-fixing
  • Flexible monthly hour allocation that rolls over or scales with need

Not Sure Which Fits?

We'll Help You Decide During Discovery

Most clients aren't sure which model fits best before talking to us — that's normal. During your free discovery call, we'll recommend the right model based on your scope clarity, timeline and internal capacity, not push whichever is easiest for us to sell.
