Why teams choose us

What you get that a local agency or a marketplace can't match.

Real overlap, not a hand-off

Pakistan is UTC+5. Your whole morning is our working afternoon, so stand-ups, pairing and reviews happen live, every day.

GDPR by default

Data processing agreement, data mapping, EU-region hosting and role-based access are standard on every European engagement.

EUR invoicing

Invoices in EUR with SEPA payment, monthly or per milestone, and VAT handled correctly for cross-border services.

Senior-led delivery

Squads led by engineers with 8+ years in production. You meet and approve the people before they start.

60 to 70 percent below local rates

$25 to $49 an hour for senior engineers, versus €80 to €150 for comparable Western European agencies and €45 to €80 nearshore.

English, documentation, process

Everything written, from sprint notes to architecture decisions. Async works even when the clock doesn't.

FAQ

Questions we get asked a lot.

Are you GDPR compliant?

Yes. We sign a DPA with Standard Contractual Clauses, host in EU regions in your account, and document data flows. We have worked with clients in Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany since 2019.

Is Pakistan nearshore for Europe?

Not geographically, but the time zone is. Pakistan is one hour ahead of Eastern Europe in summer, so overlap is the same as with a Polish or Romanian team, at a lower rate.

Can you invoice in EUR?

Yes, with SEPA payment and correct VAT treatment for cross-border B2B services.

Do you have a European entity?

Ask us for the current status of our European presence; we can share entity and contracting details on a call.

What about language?

All engineers work in English. Written communication is a hiring requirement, and every sprint is documented.
