How much does it cost?

Audits and rescues are fixed price, agreed before any work starts. Contract work is a monthly retainer. You get the exact number in the written proposal.

Which time zone do you work in?

Central European Time. I work with product teams in Europe and the US and keep a daily overlap window for calls.

Can you work inside our existing codebase?

Yes. I work in your repo, your Slack and your ticketing system. Nothing new for your team to adopt.

Do you sign NDAs and contracts?

Yes. NDA before the call if you need one, and a simple contract before work starts.

What happens after the call?

You get a short written proposal with scope, timeline and price. If it fits, we start. If not, you keep the advice.
