Flexible, market-standard ways to work with us — pick the model that fits your scope, timeline, and budget. Not sure which? We'll recommend one on a free scoping call.
A defined scope, timeline, and budget agreed up front. Full predictability with zero surprises on the invoice — ideal once requirements are clear.
You pay for the actual engineering effort used, billed hourly or daily. Best when scope will evolve and you want to steer priorities sprint by sprint.
A committed team that works like your in-house unit — same faces, full focus, deep context. The go-to model for long-term products.
Senior engineers embedded directly into your existing team — your workflow, your tools, our talent. Scale capacity or fill a skill gap fast.
You pay for results — hitting technical milestones or business KPIs — not for hours. The fastest-growing 2026 model for outcome-focused clients.
A full remote engineering unit set up under your brand and processes — the scale of an in-house team without the overhead of building one.
| Model | Best for | Pricing basis | Flexibility | Ideal duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fixed-Price | Well-defined scope, MVPs | Agreed lump sum | Low — scope is fixed | Short, bounded |
| Time & Materials | Evolving requirements | Hours / days used | High — steer anytime | Medium |
| Dedicated Team | Long-term products | Monthly per team | High — full commitment | Long-term |
| Staff Augmentation | Skill gaps, extra capacity | Monthly per engineer | High — scale up/down | Flexible |
| Managed / Outcome-Based | Buying results, not hours | Milestones / KPIs | Medium — tied to outcomes | Project-based |
| Offshore Dev Center | Full remote unit | Monthly per team + setup | High — your brand & rules | Long-term |
Instead of paying for developer hours, clients increasingly pay for hitting technical milestones or business KPIs — aligning cost directly with value delivered.
Modern contracts build in room for AI-driven pivots and mid-flight priority changes — so you can adapt without the friction of constant change requests.
We value long-term partnerships — and we're guessing you do too. Tell us what you're building and a senior engineer (not a sales rep) will map the path.
