One accountable team
The same people on site and offshore, under one founder and one plan.
Hybrid Onshore-Offshore
The best of onsite and offshore, in one team.
Most clients get the best results from a mix: our leads with you in person for discovery, big decisions and launches, and a senior squad in India building between those moments. It is one team with one plan, not two vendors handing work across a time zone.
The problem
Why this work usually stalls.
01
All onsite is expensive
Keeping a full team on site for months costs far more than the work needs.
02
All offshore can feel distant
Without in-person moments, trust and context take longer to build.
03
Two vendors, one blame game
Splitting onshore and offshore work between firms creates handover gaps and finger-pointing.
04
Knowledge stuck in one place
When only one side understands the system, every change waits on them.
What you get
How the hybrid model works.
Whichever way you work with us, the same standards apply: senior people, weekly progress and work that belongs to you.
Onsite for the moments that matter
Discovery, architecture, steering meetings and launches in person.
Offshore for the build
A senior squad in India shipping weekly, with live overlap in your day.
Shared rituals
Stand-ups, demos and reviews that include everyone, wherever they sit.
Documented as we go
Decisions, designs and runbooks written down, so knowledge is never stuck in one location.
Flexible mix
More onsite time early, more offshore as the system stabilises, adjusted month by month.

FAQ
Questions we hear a lot.
How do you decide the onsite and offshore split?
We agree it during scoping based on how much discovery, change management and stakeholder work the project needs. It usually starts heavier onsite and shifts offshore as things stabilise.
Is the onsite team different from the offshore team?
No. Our founders and lead engineers travel, and they are part of the same squad that builds from India.
Does hybrid cost more than offshore?
Onsite time adds travel and time, so it costs more than pure offshore, but far less than a fully onsite team. We agree the mix and cost upfront.
Can we change the mix later?
Yes. We review it monthly and adjust as the project moves from discovery to build to run.
