Who it's for

This pilot works best for teams that:

Ideal fit

  • Seed–Series A stage companies
  • 2–8 engineers on the team
  • GitHub + Slack workflow
  • Shipping weekly or faster
  • Node/TypeScript backend (or adjacent stacks)

Not a fit if:

  • Procurement-heavy enterprise process
  • Daily meetings required
  • Unclear tickets with no product owner
  • No existing development workflow

Pilot pricing

Start here

€1,500–€3,000 for 2 weeks (fixed scope)

Exact price depends on complexity and urgency.

Risk reversal

If we can't define a clear outcome at kickoff, you don't proceed.

After the pilot

Backend Support Retainer (capped)

€2k/monthUp to 4 tickets
€4k/monthUp to 8 tickets + PR reviews

Async Slack, 48h response. Cancel anytime.
