Five ways to work with us.

Most engagements start with fourteen days at a fixed price. After that we agree the model that fits the work, and put it in writing before anything starts.

• 01

  Hourly consultation

  Advice by the hour.

  A senior second opinion: an architecture review, a technical due-diligence call, a rescue plan. You pay for the time used and can stop at any point.

  Best forSpecific questions, reviews and short pieces of advice.

  Fixed price

  A defined scope for a set fee.

  We agree exactly what will be delivered and what it costs. If it takes us longer than we planned, that is our problem, not yours.

  Best forWork that can be specified clearly up front.

  Maximum price

  Pay for time used, up to a ceiling.

  You are billed for the time the work actually takes, with a cap agreed in advance. If it comes in under, you pay less. It cannot go over without your written agreement.

  Best forWork with real unknowns, where a fixed price would mean padding.

  Retainer

  Reserved capacity each month.

  A set amount of the team's time every month for a product that keeps moving: new features, improvements and support. The priorities are yours to change.

  Best forLive products that need continuous work.

  Equity

  Part fee, part stake.

  For a small number of early ventures we take part of our fee as equity, so we carry some of the risk and share in the result. We do this selectively.
