Planning range, not a quote. Pairing performance, stack, overlap, engagement length and start date set the final rate. Rates reviewed September 2026. Read every pricing term
Pay, our fee, founder vetting, ongoing review, contracts and invoicing. Three costs sit outside it.
We name the input that moved your number, instead of burying it in a markup.
Senior or staff/lead sets your starting band. Nothing moves the rate more.
Common stacks such as React and Node usually sit mid-band. Niche infrastructure, ML and regulated-industry experience push toward the top because the qualified pool is smaller.
Six months or longer costs less than a two-month engagement, because we do not restart sourcing every eight weeks.
A standard start notice costs nothing extra. If a rushed start or anything else raises the rate, we tell you before the quote.
Ours pays for a founder who has held the role to pair with each candidate for two hours, write up strengths and gaps before your interview, and read the engineer's code weekly or every two weeks after the start. If the lowest hourly rate is your only criterion, we are not the right fit.
Tell us the stack, the scope and the seniority. On the call you get a straight answer on whether we can fill it and what it would cost. If we take it on, a founder pairs with each candidate and you get one to three names with the write-ups attached. If nobody clears the bar, we say so instead of padding the list.
