We don't do proposals that sit in inboxes. From first call to first commit, here's how we embed with your team and start delivering value.
30 minutes with Aravind to understand your product, team, tech stack, and goals. No sales pitch—just an honest conversation about whether we're the right fit.
Based on your needs, we match the right engineer(s) from our team. You'll get a clear proposal with scope, team composition, timeline, and pricing.
Once you sign, we move fast. Slack access, repo access, and a deep-dive into your codebase and product. We come up to speed quickly—no lengthy ramp-up periods.
Our engineers aim to merge their first PR within the first week. We believe in proving value quickly, not hiding behind "research phases" or lengthy planning cycles.
After the initial onboarding, here's what working together looks like on a weekly basis.
“Aravind is in the top 1% of engineers I've hired. He supported us from $100K to $5M ARR, keeping us shipping through crazy growth and investor scrutiny.”
We structure engagements to fit your stage and needs, not arbitrary packages.
Part-time executive leadership for technical strategy, team building, and investor relations.
Full-time equivalent engineers who embed in your team and ship like your own.
Defined scope projects like MVP builds, security audits, or due diligence prep.
Most engagements start within 1-2 weeks of the initial call. For urgent needs, we can sometimes accommodate faster timelines. The discovery call helps us understand your timeline and match the right engineers.
We work on monthly retainers with flexible terms. Most clients start with a 3-month minimum to give the engagement time to show results, but we don't lock you into long-term contracts. We earn your continued partnership through results.
Monthly retainers billed in advance. No hourly tracking, no surprise invoices. Our pricing is transparent and based on the scope and seniority level needed. We'll provide a clear quote after the discovery call.
We have a 30-day trial period. If the fit isn't right in the first month, we'll work to resolve it or part ways amicably. Our goal is long-term partnerships, so we're invested in making sure the relationship works.
Absolutely. Most of our engagements involve integrating with existing teams. Our engineers are experienced at ramping up quickly, following existing conventions, and collaborating through your existing tools and processes.
Our team is primarily US-based with coverage across EST, CST, and PST. We prioritize real-time collaboration during your working hours, with async communication for off-hours follow-up.
Yes, we sign NDAs before any detailed technical discussions. Confidentiality is standard for all engagements. We work with startups at all stages and understand the importance of protecting your IP.
We ensure clean handoffs with documentation, knowledge transfer sessions, and overlap with incoming team members. Many clients bring us back for future projects or refer us to other founders.
