How it works

One call.A team in weeks.Then it ships.

From one call to a team that's working in 3–5 weeks. Then software just gets built, week after week, without you managing any of it. Here's the whole path.

Phase 01EngageOne call, then paperwork you can actually read.Phase 02OnboardYour team, wired into your accounts.Phase 03OperateSoftware ships, week after week.

01The path

Three phases. No surprises.

Every engagement follows the same path - and you can read every document on it before you sign anything.

Engage
Engage
One call, then paperwork you can actually read.
A 30-minute call to confirm fit, work type, scale, and timeline. We say up front if a pod is not the right fit. Then NDA, then the comprehensive MSA - both readable on this site before any signature.
- Confirm work fit - automation, orchestration, agentic, production web.
- Confirm pod size and target start date.
- Sign the NDA, then the MSA - one comprehensive agreement.
- First month invoice. ACH or wire preferred.

02The week

Every week, handled the same way.

Planning, build, review, one check-in, a written report. You never have to chase an update - the Friday report is the receipt.

Monday

Planning

Goals for the week. Priorities reviewed with your Pod Owner. Dependencies and risks flagged.

Tue–Thu

Building

AI-native developers ship. Your Technical Lead pairs in on architecture decisions and reviews the work.

Daily

Quality, guaranteed

Your Technical Lead holds every change to your standards - every pull request reviewed before it merges.

Mid-week

One quick check-in

A short sync with your Pod Owner: status, blockers, decisions, anything to escalate.

Friday

The report lands

Shipped, moving, your scoreboard, and what needs you - in writing, from your Pod Owner. The receipt below.

03The receipt

You never chase an update again.

Every Friday your Pod Owner puts the week in writing: what shipped, what's moving, what needs you - and the scoreboard you'd hold your own development department to. Planned vs. shipped. Production incidents. Escaped bugs. Milestone progress. Numbers, not vibes.

No status meetings to sit through.
No pinging five people for "any update?"
Proof you can forward straight to your CEO or board.
A written record you can scroll back through, any week.

04How you talk to the pod

One point of contact. Who speaks tech.

No escalation chains, no ticket queues, no bouncing between a business contact and a technical one. A single person streamlines every conversation - yours, your CTO's, and the pod's.

You & your CTOPod Owner

One point of contact - from an engineering background

Because your Pod Owner is an engineer, one person handles everything: turning your roadmap into the plan, running the cadence and the weekly report, and talking architecture, standards, and trade-offs with your CTO. You never bounce between people or repeat yourself.

Pod OwnerTechnical Lead

Coordinated for you, behind the scenes

Your Pod Owner coordinates the Technical Lead - who reviews every change against your standards - and the developers, so the whole pod moves as one. Quality is guaranteed and you never manage individuals.

05Scaling

More capacity. No hiring cycle.

Add an AI-native developer when the roadmap demands it. Past 5 code-producers a second pod opens automatically, with its own Technical Lead - so quality and your Pod Owner's attention stay high-touch.

Pod composition

1 Pod Owner. 1 Technical Lead.
Up to 5 AI-native devs.

Pod Owner and Technical Lead are included in every pod and don’t count toward the cap.
