You don't need another 45-minute sync.
You need production code in your repository.
Getting a site fixed shouldn't mean a hiring process, an agency retainer or an open-ended hourly bill.
The Full-Time Senior Hire
- Time to hire: often 2–3 months of sourcing, interviews, and notice periods.
- Cost: a senior US salary commonly runs $150,000+ a year before taxes, benefits, and equity.
- Downtime penalty: You pay 100% of their salary even during product planning lulls and release pauses.
The Traditional Agency
- The hand-off: senior people sell the project; less experienced people often build it.
- Change orders: small adjustments can mean re-scoping and re-quoting.
- Meeting overhead: standups, syncs, and status calls that could have been a comment.
The Hourly Freelancer
- Misaligned incentives: hourly billing rewards time spent, not results shipped.
- Availability risk: juggling several clients means your urgent bug may have to wait.
- Inconsistent quality: quick patches that need reworking later.
Pay once, send the details, get it fixed.
No discovery calls and no hourly meter. The price is agreed before any work starts, and everything happens in writing.

Send the details in writing
After payment you get a short form: the site, the access needed and what "done" looks like. Add screenshots, a Loom or GitHub links if they help. No calls.
Fixed within 48 hours
You get the fix plus a short written note on what was wrong and what changed, with a backup taken first. Have a backlog? The monthly plan works through a queue in your client portal, one task at a time.
Why fewer meetings and one task at a time work in your favour.
I don't do meetings and I don't juggle your tasks in parallel. Here's why that gets your work shipped sooner.
One task in progress at a time
"Juggling many things at once is why simple tasks take weeks."
- Focus over context switching: research on task-switching suggests it can cost a large share of productive time. Working on one task at a time keeps attention on the thing that matters most to you.
- Predictable delivery: there's only one task in flight, with a visible countdown in your portal, so you rarely need to ask for a status update.
- Fewer shortcuts: focused work leaves room to do things properly instead of patching around them.
No calls — everything in writing
"Every hour spent on Zoom is an hour not spent shipping your product."
- Your fee goes into the work: time isn't spent on status meetings, so it goes into code, architecture, and deployments.
- A written record: requests, comments, and pull requests live in your portal and repository, so decisions are documented rather than lost in a call.
- No timezone juggling: whether you're in San Francisco, London, or Bengaluru, nothing waits on a calendar slot. Add a request whenever it suits you.
Twenty years of shipping production software.
AI can generate code quickly. Knowing which code is safe to ship — and what breaks under real traffic — still takes experience.
Experienced judgement, modern tools
Over two decades I've documented and maintained more than 100 projects in the portfolio for clients — e-commerce backends, checkout flows, and SaaS applications.
I use AI coding agents to move faster: for many tasks an agent drafts the code and opens a pull request in your repository. I set the architecture and priorities, and every change arrives as a pull request you can review before merging, never as a direct push to your main branch.
- No junior hand-offs: the work is done by me and the AI agents I run, not by other people.
- No subcontractors: no other developers or agencies are given access to your repository.
- Solid foundations: clean data models, typed code, and lean front-end bundles.

Frequently asked questions.
Straight answers about fixed-price fixes, the care plan and the monthly plan.
How can I trust you without a discovery call first? ▾
Judge the work, not the pitch. Try one real task first for $99, delivered within 48 hours and credited toward your first month if you subscribe. Billing is month to month, so you can cancel any time. If you have a specific question before buying, email hello@sazm.in.
How does the task queue work? ▾
There's no cap on how many requests you can add to your backlog. I work on one at a time, in the order you set. Large projects are split into smaller tasks, each delivered within 24–48 hours of starting. How much gets done in a month depends on the size of the tasks.
Why only one active task at a time? ▾
Switching between tasks slows everything down and invites mistakes. Focusing on one task means it gets finished quickly (24–48 hours) and properly. When it's delivered, the next task in your queue starts.
How do we communicate without calls? ▾
In writing — through your client portal at sazm.in/app, pull request comments, and email. Describe requests in text, wireframes, Figma links, or short Loom videos. The portal shows each task's status, delivery countdown, and deliverables; you don't need accounts on any other tools.
How do I log in to the client portal? ▾
Go to sazm.in/app and enter the email you subscribed with. We'll email you a 6-digit code — no password to remember. From there you can add tasks, drag them into priority order, follow the delivery countdown, and download deliverables.
Can I pause my subscription if I don't have work right now? ▾
Yes. Pause from the Billing tab in your portal and the unused days of your current billing period are saved to your account. For example, pause 20 days into a 31-day period and the remaining 11 days are waiting for you when you resume.
Who actually does the work? Do you outsource? ▾
I do — a senior engineer with 20+ years of experience and 100+ projects in the portfolio. I use AI coding agents to work faster: they draft code and open pull requests, while I set the architecture and handle what they can't. No junior developers, subcontractors, or white-label agencies. Read my Resume (PDF) for complete career history and credentials.
What tech stacks do you support? ▾
Modern web stacks: Astro, React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Node.js, and Cloudflare (Workers, D1, R2, KV). If your project uses mainstream web technology, I can usually get oriented in the repository and start on your first task quickly. If something is outside my expertise, I'll tell you up front.
What if I'm not satisfied with the work delivered? ▾
Leave feedback on the task and I'll revise it — revisions to a delivered task are included and take priority over starting new work. Genuinely new requirements become a new task in your queue.
Who owns the code and intellectual property? ▾
You do. Work is committed to your own repository, and you own the code, designs, and assets created for you once the subscription period they were delivered in is paid. See the Terms for details.
How do billing, taxes, and invoicing work? ▾
You pay $999/month in USD through PayPal, which accepts major cards and PayPal balances and bills automatically each month. Pause from your client portal. Cancel any time from your PayPal account (Settings → Automatic payments) or by emailing billing@sazm.in — you keep access until the end of the period you've paid for.
