How we work

Easy to engage. Easy to scale.

Vetting, contracts and delivery, engineered to raise your team’s velocity and cut your overhead.

Vetted Senior Talent

We accept the top 1% of engineers, so you only work with proven talent.

Every engineer is assessed on technical depth, problem-solving and communication before joining a client team. Our engineers average eight to ten years of hands-on experience, so they contribute from the first sprint instead of learning on your budget.

Timezone-Aligned Management

Product and project managers in your time zone, wherever your engineers are.

Our client engagement team is distributed globally. You get a product or project manager who works your hours, joins your meetings live and keeps delivery moving across time zones, so nothing waits overnight for an answer.

AI-Native Engineering

Engineers who build with AI, and build AI into your product.

Our teams use AI tooling across design, coding, testing and documentation to ship faster, and they have production experience with LLM applications, machine learning and MLOps. You get AI capability inside the team rather than from a separate vendor.

Full-Stack Capabilities

One team, from roadmap to production support.

Strategy, product engineering, cloud, data, AI and QA under one roof, across eight practice areas. The people who plan your architecture are the same people who build, ship and run it.

Scalable Teams

Start with one engineer. Grow to several teams.

Add or reduce capacity as your roadmap changes, and move between staff augmentation, dedicated teams and outsourcing without changing partner. We handle hiring, onboarding and replacements.

Standard MSAs & SOWs

Clear paperwork, so work starts sooner.

We work under a master services agreement with a statement of work for each engagement, so scope, responsibilities and terms are written down before anything starts. Adding a team or a project means a new SOW, not a new negotiation.

NDAs & IP Protection

Everything we build belongs to you.

NDAs are signed before any access is given, and IP assignment is part of every contract in every engagement model. Your code, models and data stay yours.

Enterprise-Grade Security

Security handled. Compliance built in.

Engineers work inside your environment under least-privilege access. Our practices align with ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR and HIPAA, with PII masking, encryption and audit logging built into data work.

Managed Delivery

We manage delivery, quality and people.

Team leads run sprints, demos and reporting; we handle retention, performance and handovers. You set direction and see progress in the open, without managing every engineer.

FAQ

Augmented Reality. Answered.

What does AIGard’s Augmented Reality service include?

AIGard builds augmented reality experiences that overlay digital content on the real world, for training, retail, field service and product visualization.

The work typically covers:

  • AR concept and prototyping
  • Mobile and headset AR apps
  • 3D content integration
  • Object and surface recognition
  • Integration with product and operational data
  • Performance optimization

When is Augmented Reality the right investment?

Augmented Reality is usually the right investment in one or more of these situations:

  • Customers want to see products in their own space
  • Field staff need instructions in view
  • Training needs to be hands-on
  • You want to stand out with an interactive experience

On a 30-minute scoping call we confirm whether it fits your case and recommend a team shape and first milestones.

Do users need special hardware for augmented reality?

Not necessarily. Many augmented reality experiences run on phones and tablets, without dedicated hardware.

AIGard builds both mobile and headset AR apps, and the right choice depends on the use case, whether that is training, retail, field service or product visualization. We typically settle the question during concept and prototyping, before committing to a full build.

Can augmented reality connect to our product catalog or systems?

Yes. AIGard connects AR experiences to your product catalog and other systems through APIs, so content stays current.

Integration with product and operational data is a standard part of our AR work. It means customers viewing products in their own space, or field staff following instructions in view, see information drawn from your systems instead of content fixed when the app was built.

How does AIGard manage risk in emerging technology projects?

By proving the hardest assumption first. We scope a contained first milestone that tests technical feasibility before committing the full budget.

That gives you evidence for the next investment decision rather than a forecast.

Does AIGard have engineers with this specialist experience?

Engineers are matched to your stack and domain at the first vetting stage, and you interview them before they join.

If we do not have the right specialists for a requirement, we will say so on the scoping call.

Which technologies does AIGard use for Augmented Reality?

For Augmented Reality, AIGard engineers typically work with ARKit, ARCore, Unity, Swift and Kotlin.

The stack is selected to fit the systems you already run, and engineers are matched to it before they join.

How is Augmented Reality delivered?

Augmented Reality is available through any of AIGard’s three engagement models: staff augmentation, where engineers join your team; a dedicated team that runs the workstream; or software outsourcing, where AIGard delivers a defined project.

The choice depends on how much of the delivery you want to manage, and it can change later under the same agreement.

How quickly can AIGard engineers start?

Engineers typically start within two to four weeks of the scoping call. The exact date depends on the roles, seniority and number of people required.

We confirm a realistic start date in writing before you commit, and you meet the proposed engineers before work begins.

How much does it cost to work with AIGard?

AIGard engineers typically cost 30–50% less than the fully loaded cost of a comparable US-based hire, with no recruiting fees, benefits overhead or insurance costs on your side.

The figure for a specific engagement depends on the model, the roles, the seniority mix and the size of the team. We issue a written proposal after the scoping call, so the commercial terms are agreed before any work starts.

How does AIGard protect our data and systems?

NDAs are signed before any access is given, and engineers work inside your environment under least-privilege access, with permissions limited to their responsibilities.

Access is reviewed as roles change and removed when work ends. Our practices align with ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR and HIPAA, with PII masking, encryption and audit logging built into data work. We review your access policies, data-handling needs and vendor requirements during scoping.

Who owns the code, models and intellectual property?

You do. Intellectual property assignment is written into every contract, in every engagement model.

That covers source code, designs, documentation, data, models and prompts produced for you. Third-party components and their licenses are identified, so ownership is clear at handover.
