Engagement models & pricing

Three ways to work with us, priced up front.

Pick the model that matches how your work arrives: a defined project, a steady flow of tasks, or a complex system with compliance requirements. You agree the price before the main work starts, and you can start with a one-week trial on terms agreed before it begins.

Fixed-scope project

Best for: A defined build with a clear finish line

Fixed price, milestone-based

  • A website, store, app or a specific feature
  • Written scope, timeline and fixed price agreed before work starts
  • We manage design, build and launch; you approve at each milestone

Dedicated allocation

Best for: A steady stream of work that never quite ends

Simple monthly rate

  • One dedicated developer, marketer or executive assistant
  • Works your hours, in your tools, alongside your team
  • No recruiting or payroll overhead
Discuss the role you need

Enterprise engagement

Best for: Systems where failure, data exposure or an audit gap is expensive

Custom statement of work

  • Architecture designed around your compliance and audit requirements
  • A dedicated senior team with a named delivery lead
  • Audit trails, row-level security and access controls from the start
  • Ongoing support and maintenance after launch
Discuss your current setup

Early-stage startups: we consider blended cash-and-equity arrangements case by case.

Dedicated allocation

Add one experienced person without a hiring process.

Choose the role. We match an experienced person who works your hours, inside your tools, as part of your team, for a flat monthly rate.

A Developer

Full-stack, front-end, back-end, mobile or AI, matched to the stack you already run.

A Marketing Specialist

SEO, AI search (answer engine optimization, or AEO), content, paid, email and analytics, working to your pipeline targets.

An Executive Assistant

Inbox, scheduling, research and operations admin, so senior people stop spending their week on it.

How we deliver

AI handles the repetitive work. Our engineers own the outcome.

Much of a build’s cost sits in routine work: setup, boilerplate, first-draft tests. AI tools speed that up. Review, architecture and quality checks stay with senior engineers, so speed doesn’t come from skipping them.

Human-led

Scope and design the system

A senior engineer works out the data model, the integrations and the build plan with you. These decisions shape everything after, so a person makes them.

AI-assisted

Build, with AI on the routine work

AI tools draft scaffolding, boilerplate and first-pass tests, so engineering hours go into the parts specific to your business.

Human-led

Review and harden

Engineers review the code, check security and own the quality of what ships. Nothing AI-drafted goes out unreviewed.

Both

Launch and keep improving

Production release with monitoring in place, then short cycles of changes based on how people actually use it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I start with a trial?

Yes. You can start with a one-week trial on real work, on terms agreed before it begins, so you can judge the people and the process before committing to more.

What does a dedicated allocation cost?

A flat monthly rate per person, which depends on the role and seniority. Tell us the role and we’ll confirm the rate before anyone starts.

How is a fixed-price project priced?

We agree a written scope first, then a fixed price paid against milestones. If your requirements change mid-project, we price the change separately before doing it, so the budget doesn’t drift without your sign-off.

Do you offer discounts for equity?

For a small number of early-stage companies we’ll consider a blended cash-and-equity arrangement. Mention it in your enquiry and we can look at whether it fits.

Can I switch models later?

Yes. A common path is a fixed project to launch, then a dedicated allocation for the improvements that follow.

Not sure which model fits?

Describe the work and how it tends to arrive. We’ll suggest the smallest engagement that solves it, and you can start with a one-week trial on terms agreed before it begins.
