FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything you'd want to know before the discovery call.

How quickly can I hire a PHP Developer?
Within 48 hours. We do a 30-minute discovery call, share 3 vetted profiles within 24 hours, you interview, then we onboard with NDA, IP transfer, and access done.
Which time zones do your engineers cover?
Our engineers work across IST, GMT, and EST overlap windows — full overlap with US/UK/EU/APAC business hours. We confirm overlap explicitly during the discovery call.
What does it cost?
Pricing depends on seniority, engagement type (full-time dedicated vs project-based), and overlap window. Rates are 40-60% below comparable US/UK rates with the same quality bar. Send your scope we'll come back with a fixed quote.
Can I replace a developer if it isn't working out?
Yes no questions asked. We replace any engineer within 5 working days, no extra cost. You only pay for hours worked.
Do you sign NDAs and transfer IP?
Always. Standard NDA + IP-transfer agreement are signed before any work starts. All deliverables (code, designs, data, accounts) belong to you.
What if I need to scale up or pause?
Scale up with 7 days' notice we maintain a deep bench. Pause with 14 days' notice. No long-term lock-in beyond your initial engagement window.
