Freelance sites stop at the introduction. We stay on as the employer for as long as the offshore developer works with you.
Each offshore developer passes a technical assessment, an English check at C1 or above, and a behavioral interview before you see a profile.
We hold the contract, run payroll and statutory benefits, and supply the laptop and licenses. You need no local entity.
A dedicated partner checks in on every placement, and if a hire does not work out in the first 90 days, we replace them.
Tell us the stack, seniority, time zone and budget on a short call.
Pre-vetted profiles within 24 hours of your brief.
Run your own technical interview. We handle scheduling and the offer.
We employ the offshore developer and they join your team. The whole hire takes 2 weeks.
Each market has its own strengths, costs and working hours. Pick one, or mix them in the same team.

We find, vet and employ full-time offshore software developers in Vietnam, the Philippines and India for companies abroad. The offshore developer works only on your product and joins your standups; we handle the contract, payroll, taxes and equipment.
A marketplace gives you applicants and leaves the screening, contracts and payments to you. We screen every offshore developer before you see them, employ them under local law, and replace them within 90 days if the hire does not work out.
All-in monthly fees run from $2,499 to $5,999 per offshore developer depending on country, stack and seniority. That covers salary, payroll, statutory benefits, equipment and our fee. There is no upfront payment and no placement fee.
