Pillar 03 — Dev-as-a-Service

Your dedicated dev team, on a monthly subscription.

A senior engineering team that ships every week — for a flat monthly fee you can scale, pause or cancel anytime. Faster than hiring, more reliable than an agency, with none of the headcount risk.

The model

Capacity, not contracts.

Hiring is slow and risky. Agencies re-quote every project. Dev-as-a-Service gives you a fixed monthly cost for a dedicated team that already knows your stack — so you can ship continuously without the overhead of building an in-house team.

Add work to the queue, prioritise it, and watch it ship. Need more for a launch? Scale up. Quiet month? Scale down or pause. You only ever pay for the capacity you actually use.

FAQ

Dev-as-a-Service — your questions, answered.

What is Dev-as-a-Service?

Dev-as-a-Service (DaaS) is a dedicated development team on a flat monthly subscription. Instead of hiring engineers or quoting every project, you get reliable, ongoing capacity you can scale up, down or pause — managed entirely by us.

How is it different from hiring a developer?

There's no recruitment, no salary, NI, benefits or tooling overhead, and no risk of a key hire leaving with the knowledge. You get a senior team in days instead of months, and you can scale or pause whenever your roadmap changes.

Can we really pause or cancel anytime?

Yes. Plans are month-to-month. Pause between phases, scale down when things are quiet, or cancel with notice — you only pay for the capacity you're using.

What kind of work can the team do?

Web apps, websites, mobile apps, integrations, AI agent work, maintenance and new features — the same engineering we do on fixed-scope projects, just delivered as ongoing capacity.

Who owns the code?

You do — fully. Everything is built on mainstream technology, documented and tested, with no lock-in to us.

How quickly can we start?

Usually within days of agreeing a plan. Onboarding into your tools and codebase is fast, and we start on your priority queue straight away.
