Things people ask before signing.

Most engagements start within 5 business days of contract signature. Productized packages (Codebase Audit, RAG Pipeline Starter) can begin within 48 hours.

Yes. We have a standard mutual NDA we can send over, or we'll redline yours. We've signed 30+ to date.

Our HQ is in India (UTC+5:30). About 60% of the team works on-site; the rest are remote across India and the EU. We commit to 2 hours of overlap with EU clients and 3 with US East Coast.

Both. Productized packages are fixed price; custom studio engagements are typically time-and-materials with a not-to-exceed cap. Retainers are flat monthly.

You do. All work-product is assigned to you on payment. We retain rights to generic patterns and reusable libraries that aren't specific to your domain.

Yes, that's most of what we do. Our Startup Tech Consulting practice exists for it. We don't take equity in lieu of cash, but we do offer reduced rates for pre-seed and seed companies on specific packages.

Yes. The SOC 2 Type I sprint is a 10-week productized engagement. ISO 27001 and HIPAA follow similar patterns. We bring auditor relationships.

Yes, React Native is our default. Native iOS/Android only when there's a real reason (deep platform APIs, AR, etc.) Everything else is RN with native modules where needed.

Mostly fintech, legal tech and AI-first SaaS, plus healthcare where compliance is the hard part. We care more about the shape of the system than the sector: payment rails, document pipelines and regulated data all rhyme.

Usually, yes. Most of our work starts with a codebase that already exists. We'll tell you plainly if something in it needs replacing rather than extending, and why.

Yes. Our Production Operations retainer covers monitoring, on-call, model retraining and ongoing security work. If we built it, we're on the pager.
