Software development outsourcing.

AIGard takes responsibility for the whole project, from discovery to launch. In discovery we define objectives, scope, budget and timeline, and agree milestones and acceptance criteria in writing.

Architecture and design follow, then iterative build and test with regular demos, then launch. Maintenance and support can continue after go-live.

Outsourcing fits when you need an outcome delivered rather than a team to manage: you have no in-house team for the work, or want it off your leadership agenda.

If you would rather direct the work sprint by sprint, a dedicated team or staff augmentation gives you more day-to-day control.

The difference is how much of the delivery you manage. With staff augmentation, you direct individual engineers inside your own team. A dedicated team is a self-managing AIGard team working against priorities you set. With software outsourcing, AIGard owns delivery of the whole project against milestones you approve.

All three draw on the same vetted engineers and the same contracts, security practices and ownership terms.

Your involvement is concentrated at milestones and demos. You approve requirements, give feedback on working software and accept each milestone.

AIGard runs discovery, planning, architecture, the team, quality assurance, releases and reporting. Regular status updates and milestone reviews keep you informed throughout.

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

Compared with a typical offshore vendor, you generally need fewer engineers for the same output, because senior engineers reduce rework. Projects can be scoped by milestone; we provide a written proposal after discovery.

A cross-functional team assembled for the project: a project manager, an architect, engineers, DevOps and QA, sized by AIGard.

Composition follows the work. We ramp up during heavy development, bring in QA and DevOps as the product matures, and scale back for testing or maintenance.

Yes. We assess the codebase, stabilize what exists and re-establish structured delivery.

We then agree scope and milestones for the remaining work, so you have a credible plan and a clear view of what is kept, refactored or replaced.

Yes. Ongoing maintenance, monitoring and improvements can continue after go-live.

The team that built the product can stay on it, so support does not begin with a knowledge transfer.

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.

Every engineer clears a five-stage process before joining a client team: profile review, communication, skills assessment, a practical challenge and a technical interview with senior engineers.

The process tests delivery record, professional English, code quality, system design and proficiency in AI-assisted development. For staff augmentation and dedicated teams, you then interview and approve each person we put forward.

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.

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.
