Win the work. We will build it — invisibly, under your brand.

No — not unless you choose to tell them. Invisibility is the point of white-label, and we treat it as a firm commitment, not a preference. We do not appear in client meetings, client emails, or deliverables. Our name is not on the code, the documentation, or the work. We do not list white-label clients publicly or use the work in our portfolio without explicit permission. Roughly a third of everything we ship is white-label, and the whole arrangement depends on us being genuinely invisible — so we are.

A standard NDA, a sub-contract agreement, and clear terms on code and IP ownership — all signed before a single line of code is written. The NDA protects your client relationship and anything confidential you share; the sub-contract sets out scope, responsibilities, and rates; the ownership terms confirm that all work belongs to you or your client. We also agree the practical setup up front: which tools and repositories we work in, who the named contacts are, and how communication flows. Nothing about the engagement is left informal.

For scoped, sprint-by-sprint work, typically 5 to 7 business days from a signed statement of work — that covers the paperwork, access setup, and a named lead getting up to speed. A larger dedicated-pod engagement takes a little longer to assemble the right people, but is still measured in days to a couple of weeks, not the months that hiring would take. If you have a deadline you are worried about, tell us on the first call and we will give you an honest read on whether we can hit it.

Yours, or your client’s — whichever you prefer. We work inside your project management tools (Jira, Linear, ClickUp, Asana, and others), your communication channels, and your or your client’s code repositories as standard. All work lives where you want it to live and is owned by you or your client throughout — we do not keep work on our own systems and hand it over later. This keeps the engagement transparent on your side, and means there is nothing to migrate or untangle when a project ends.

Our working hours overlap with UK mornings, the full EU workday, and US afternoons — so there is a real-time window with your team every business day, not just an overnight handoff. For most agency partners that overlap is enough for standups, reviews, and quick decisions, while the non-overlapping hours simply mean work progresses while you are offline. If your engagement needs more overlap at a particular time, we can arrange it. A named project lead is your single point of contact regardless of the hour.

The default is fully behind the scenes — you run all client contact, and we support you with whatever you need to do that well. Some agencies, though, prefer us to join a technical call presented as part of their team, under their brand, especially for deep architecture or AI discussions. We are comfortable either way; it is entirely your call, agreed up front. What never happens is us appearing as a separate company or contradicting the way you have positioned the engagement to your client.

It depends on the model. Sprint-by-sprint overflow and one-off white-label builds are scoped and quoted per piece of work; a dedicated pod is a monthly capacity commitment on a retainer or rolling statement of work. In every case the rates are competitive with established engineering rates internationally, and they leave room for your agency to apply its own margin — that is the point of the arrangement. We scope each engagement against the specific work rather than quoting a generic number, and a first call is the fastest way to get a realistic figure.
