Who we work with
Startups and scale-ups at every funding stage
We have worked with pre-seed founders building their first MVP, Series A companies scaling their engineering team, and corporate innovation labs that need to move at startup speed.
Pre-seed & Seed Founders
Non-technical or semi-technical founders who need an engineering partner to build their first product — from validated Figma prototype to a live, shippable MVP.
Series A Scale-ups
Companies past product-market fit who need to scale their engineering team fast — without the 6-month hiring cycle for senior engineers in London, New York, or Sydney.
Accelerator Cohort Companies
YC, Techstars, and other accelerator companies who need to build and ship quickly within a 3-month demo day deadline — with a team that understands the pace and the pressure.
Corporate Innovation Teams
Enterprise innovation labs and digital transformation teams who need to validate new product ideas quickly — without the internal IT backlog or the procurement cycle.
Why startups choose us
When hiring in-house takes too long and freelancers are too unreliable
Most startups face the same engineering dilemma — in-house hiring is expensive and slow, freelancers are unpredictable, and agencies often overbuild. We are the answer to all three.
The Challenge
First technical hire takes 4–6 months and costs $150K+
How We Solve It
We give you a senior engineering team from week one — at 70% the cost of US/UK in-house hiring, with no equity, no benefits overhead, and no notice periods.
The Challenge
MVP takes 12 months instead of 3
How We Solve It
We scope, design, and ship a focused MVP in 10–14 weeks — by cutting scope ruthlessly to the core user flow and building exactly what is needed to test your hypothesis, not a full product.
The Challenge
Technical debt makes the v2 a rewrite
How We Solve It
We build with the architecture patterns that let you scale — clean separation of concerns, typed APIs, automated tests on critical paths — so your Series A engineers inherit code they can work with.
The Challenge
Freelancers are cheap but unreliable
How We Solve It
We operate as a team, not a collection of freelancers — with a dedicated project lead, sprint ceremonies, weekly demos, and a shared commitment to your roadmap beyond the current invoice.
The Challenge
Building for today cannot accommodate tomorrow
How We Solve It
We design data models and API layers that can support multi-tenancy, internationalisation, and feature expansion from the start — without an architectural rewrite when you scale.
The Challenge
No one owns the product vision technically
How We Solve It
We embed a technical lead who challenges your product decisions, proposes alternatives when a feature is over-engineered, and keeps your roadmap grounded in what is actually buildable in your budget.
What we build
Products We Build for Startups
Every product type below we've built for real startups — from 10-week MVPs to multi-million-user SaaS platforms. We start with scope discipline and build with the architecture that survives success.
Focused MVPs shipped in 10–14 weeks — scoped to the core user flow that tests your hypothesis, built with the architecture that survives success, and documented so your next engineer can onboard in a day.
Multi-tenant SaaS platforms — subscription billing, team workspaces, usage-based pricing, admin dashboards, customer onboarding flows, and the integrations your enterprise customers will ask for in the sales process.
Native iOS and Android apps, or React Native for cross-platform delivery — consumer-facing products with smooth onboarding, push notifications, in-app payments, and the performance users expect from a well-funded startup.
Two-sided marketplaces — buyer and seller onboarding, listing management, trust and safety systems, payment processing with platform take-rate, dispute resolution, and the network effects features that make marketplaces defensible.
AI product development — LLM integration, RAG pipelines, AI agents, computer vision, and predictive analytics. We build the product wrapper, the data pipeline, and the fine-tuning infrastructure that turns a GPT-4o call into a defensible product.
Engineering scale-up for Series A/B companies — dedicated engineering teams embedded into your product org, legacy codebase refactoring, infrastructure scaling, and the senior engineering leadership you need before you can afford a VP of Engineering.
MVP Development
Focused MVPs shipped in 10–14 weeks — scoped to the core user flow that tests your hypothesis, built with the architecture that survives success, and documented so your next engineer can onboard in a day.
How we protect you
What we build in to every startup engagement
IP ownership, security, scalability, and fixed pricing are not add-ons — they are built into how we work with every startup client.
How we work with startups
From scoping call to shippable MVP in 4 phases
Week 1
Product Scoping & Scope Cuts
We run a focused scoping session to define the core user flow, cut scope ruthlessly to the MVP, and agree on a fixed price and timeline — before any design or engineering work begins.
Week 2–3
Design & Architecture
UX wireframes validated with your target users, and a technical architecture designed to support the MVP and the next two rounds of features — so you do not rewrite at v2.
Weeks 4–N
Sprint-based Development
Two-week sprints with a shippable increment at the end of each one. You test real features with real users from the first sprint — not after 6 months of building in the dark.
Launch
Launch & Handover
Production deployment, analytics setup, error monitoring, and full codebase documentation. Your engineers — or ours — can continue from a clean, documented starting point.
Technologies we use for startup products
Next.js, React Native, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Stripe, AWS, and Vercel — the startup stack that is fast to build, easy to hire for, and scales when you get traction.

Frequently Asked Questions
We ship focused MVPs in 10–14 weeks. The key is scope discipline — we cut ruthlessly to the core user flow that tests your hypothesis, build that well, and ship it. We have seen founders waste 12 months and $200K building features that users did not want. A tight 10-week MVP prevents that.
Yes — 100%. All code, designs, and documentation become yours on final payment. There is no licence dependency on AITC, no monthly fee to keep your product running, and no lock-in. You can take the codebase to any engineer or agency after we finish.
A senior full-stack engineer in London or New York costs $120K–$200K per year — plus equity, benefits, and a 3–6 month hiring cycle. Our dedicated teams start from $6,000–$12,000/month depending on team size, with no equity, no benefits overhead, and no notice periods. For early-stage startups, the maths is straightforward.
We take Figma-ready designs and ship production code. We will review your designs for engineering feasibility and flag anything that will take disproportionate time to build — before we start — so there are no surprises.
Yes. We embed into your existing team — attending your standups, working in your GitHub repo, and following your conventions. We have worked alongside solo technical co-founders, small founding teams, and larger engineering orgs. We adapt to your process, not the other way around.
We offer post-launch support, ongoing feature development, and dedicated team arrangements for scale-ups. Most of our clients start with an MVP and continue with us for the next 12–24 months as the product grows. We also do clean handovers if you want to bring engineering in-house — with full documentation and a structured knowledge transfer.
