AI-NATIVE
Every role works with AI. Every merge gets a senior review.
01
AI drafts
Scaffolding, tests, migrations, requirements outlines and release notes start as AI drafts, so people spend their time on decisions.
02
A person decides
The engineer, analyst or tester edits the draft against your product, your conventions and your users.
03
A senior reviews
A senior engineer reviews every line before merge. Nothing ships on the AI's word.
Speed without review is how AI-written code gets into trouble. Across 470 open-source pull requests, CodeRabbit found AI-co-authored code carried ~1.7× more major issues and ~2.7× more security defects. That's why every merge here goes past a senior engineer, and why client code is never used to train models.
WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER
Three ways to add engineers, priced up front.
Recommended
Continuous Delivery Retainer
from $3,375/month · 150 hours
150 hours a month of your engineer on a backlog we agree with you, with senior review on every merge. The price depends on the role and is confirmed on a 30-minute call.
See the retainer →Prepaid Hours
$45/hour · 20-hour minimum
Buy 20 to 120 hours for scoped work, valid for 12 months. Bigger blocks cost less per hour. Need more than 120? The retainer fits better.
See hour blocks →Embedded team
lead + 1 engineer from $8,000/month
A tech lead plus your engineer inside your repo, your Slack and your sprint rituals. Bigger teams are quoted to fit.

What changes when you skip the hiring search?
| Hiring your own | Working with SociiLabs | |
|---|---|---|
| Time to first contribution | A search, interviews, notice period, then onboarding | Contributing in 15 days |
| If it doesn't work out | 46% of new hires fail within 18 months (Leadership IQ) | We replace the engineer, handover time isn't billed, and you keep the code and history |
| Who reviews the code | Whoever you already have | A senior engineer, on every merge |
| How AI is used | Depends on the person | AI in the loop on every task, behind a review gate |
| Commitment | Salary, benefits, equity | Monthly retainer or a block of hours |
