What you get and what you pay.

With offshore staffing or staff augmentation, the provider finds a developer and the managing is left to you. We do it as a full service. The AI engineers are ours: we employ them, assign them to you full time, give them an office and equipment, train and coach them, and run delivery with you every week.

One monthly fee. Everything around the AI engineer is in it.

You agree a monthly capacity in hours with us. The fee covers the AI engineer's salary and every layer around it: the service delivery manager who runs the team, training and development, the workplace, the equipment and the HR behind the employment. It is the same amount every month.

  • One agreement and one invoice, with no setup fee or management surcharge

Questions about a dedicated AI engineering team.

What's the difference between AI outsourcing and an AI development partner?

Accountability after launch. A typical AI outsourcing project delivers a feature and ends. A development partner stays with the product, which matters because AI features need ongoing care in ways traditional software doesn't.

Who manages the AI developers?

We do. It works like staff augmentation, with the management included: our AI developers are assigned to your product full time, and we employ, train and manage them. You set the priorities and review what ships.

Do you build AI products from scratch?

Sometimes. We do our best work adding AI to software that already has users, revenue and real constraints.

Can remote AI engineers work with our existing team?

Yes, that's the usual setup. Our AI engineers work in your repositories and your sprints, alongside your own developers.

How do you handle data privacy?

We agree it before any work starts. Where data can't leave your infrastructure, the team works entirely inside it, with open-weight models if needed.

Are your specialists AI trained?

Yes. Every specialist completes AI certification through our Talent Success and Academy programme before joining a client team, whatever their discipline.

What gets an AI feature from prototype to production?

A convincing demo is the easy part. What gets a feature into production is evaluation, retrieval quality, cost per request and handling the inputs you didn't expect.

LLM engineer or computer vision engineer?

The team follows the problem. Retrieval, evaluation and prompt behaviour sit with an LLM engineer. When the input is images or video, a computer vision engineer joins the team.

Which model providers do you work with?

Your team works with the model providers you already have contracts with, inside your own accounts. We'll recommend the right model for each job, and sometimes the best answer is a simpler approach without one.

Do AI engineers work with a data team?

Most AI features are limited by the data behind them, so AI engineers often work alongside a managed data team on one committed monthly capacity.

Build the whole team around your AI engineers.

Most partners add a second discipline within the first year. It joins the same agreement, the same sprints and the same service delivery manager.
