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 AI Agent Developer works your business hours in your time zone and joins your Teams or Slack like anyone else. The hub matched to United States clients is in Colombia, on New York time or an hour behind.

You do. Your AI Agent Developer builds in your own accounts (Zapier, Make or n8n, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, your AI provider), under your logins and billing. Each build is logged with notes and a recorded walkthrough, so it stays with you if you leave us.

You do, on your own accounts, at the provider's price. We never mark it up. Your AI Agent Developer asks before adding a paid tool and sets spending limits where the tool allows.

Every automation has error alerts, and your AI Agent Developer fixes or escalates failures within the day. Steps that send, pay or change records wait for a person's approval, so a failure stops the run instead of sending the wrong thing.

You agree what gets built first. Builds are tested on real cases, and nothing goes live until you or your nominee says yes. Every change is logged: what, when and why.

Yes. Your AI Agent Developer works inside your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace with the access your admin gives, so Copilot and Gemini follow your tenant's rules and AI policy. You can remove access at any time.

An Expert AI Agent Developer designs multi-step and multi-agent workflows across a department and chooses models and platforms. A Specialist AI Agent Developer leads agent developers and sets standards.

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 AI Agent Developer is tested live in the tools on your job description, such as Microsoft Graph API and Google Workspace APIs, before you meet them.

In week one: client's approved AI tools and plans confirmed in writing; models and Apis accounts owned and billed by the client; and service accounts or app registrations created. You agree the first priorities with them on day one.

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.
