More questions

Within 12 to 48 hours of a successful interview. First you meet your shortlist, interview the people you like and pick your person.

Yes. Your Product Designer works your business hours in your time zone and joins your Teams or Slack like anyone else. The hub matched to United Kingdom clients is in Nigeria, on London time or an hour ahead.

Yes, where it helps. Your Product Designer works in the AI tools you already use. They use AI for first drafts and routine work, check every output, and follow your AI policy. You can ask for no AI on any task.

An Intermediate Product Designer owns a feature from problem definition to post-launch review with light oversight with engineers. An Expert Product Designer owns an outcome for a product area and sets its research and experiment plan. We usually recommend Intermediate.

It stays under your rules: your admin settings and AI policy apply. Our talent rules ban client data in personal or free AI accounts, and passwords, card numbers, health details and ID numbers never go into any AI tool.

You direct the work day to day. We handle recruiting, equipment and quality checks.

Yes. Every Product Designer is tested live in the tools on your job description, such as Figma and FigJam, before you meet them.

In week one: figma seat, design library and Storybook access confirmed; analytics read access to Mixpanel, Amplitude or GA4, plus Hotjar or FullStory; and jira or Linear, roadmap and product docs in Notion or Confluence shared. You agree the first priorities with them on day one.

Pay only for the hours they work. All your Seats are on one bill, and Studio plans are billed monthly.

It can, at most once a year. Your person's hourly rate may rise by up to 5% a year, from the first anniversary of the Seat's start, with 60 days' notice and the right to end the Seat before it applies.

Only when you and your person both agree to it in advance. Otherwise they work the hours you set, and you pay for the hours they log.

You aren't charged for hours your person doesn't work, apart from paid leave. After their third month, your person earns 8 hours of paid leave a month. Paid leave hours are charged at their usual rate.

Your person logs their hours each day in the Get Hands client app, where you can see them. Your next invoice is adjusted to those hours.

Yes, with no minimum hours. From 20 to 37 hours a week, the hourly rate is 10% higher than full-time. Under 20 hours, it's 20% higher.

Yes. Tell us the roles on a call and we shortlist tested people for each.

Yes. You give them access in your own systems, and you can change or remove it at any time.
