Fire your agency meetings. Hire a 20-year veteran engineer on subscription.
Unlimited full-stack design and development for one predictable monthly fee. Requests delivered sequentially every 24 to 48 hours. No discovery calls, no junior bait-and-switch, and zero handoff lag.
You don't need another 45-minute sync.
You need production code in your repository.
Building software shouldn't require navigating the endless friction of traditional recruitment, agency markups, and meeting burnout.
The Full-Time Senior Hire
- Time to onboard: 60 to 90 days of sourcing, screening, and cultural rounds.
- Capital burn: $160,000 to $220,000/year base + equity + taxes + benefits.
- Downtime penalty: You pay 100% of their salary even during product planning lulls and release pauses.
The Traditional Agency
- The bait-and-switch: Pitched by an articulate VP, then handed off to unsupervised juniors.
- Scope creep friction: Every tiny adjustment requires a formal Change Order and 2-week renegotiation.
- Meeting overhead: 5 hours wasted every week on standups, syncs, and retros that could have been an issue comment.
The Hourly Freelancer
- Misaligned incentives: The slower they code, the more hours they bill to your credit card.
- Ghosting hazard: Highly available Monday morning; completely missing in action when a critical bug hits.
- Inconsistent quality: Patchwork solutions requiring complete rewrites six months later.

Ship Every 24–48 Hours
Your active ticket moves to In Progress. Within 24–48 hours, clean, type-safe, tested code lands via pull request. As soon as it's marked Done, the next ticket starts immediately.
Why my constraints are your competitive edge.
I don't offer meetings and I don't work on 5 tasks in parallel. Here is why that makes your software ship 3x faster.
Pillar 1: The Strict WIP Limit of 1 (Work-In-Progress)
"Most agencies juggle 12 clients at once. That's why your tasks take three weeks."
- Deep Focus Over Context Switching: Cognitive science proves task-switching destroys up to 40% of productive output. Enforcing a hard WIP limit of 1 guarantees 100% of my cognitive bandwidth is on your ticket.
- Predictable Delivery Cadence: You never have to ask "What's the status?" There is only one task in flight, moving relentlessly toward delivery within 24–48 hours.
- Zero Architectural Shortcuts: Code written with undivided attention doesn't have technical debt quietly injected into it.
Pillar 2: The Strict "Zero Calls" Policy
"Every hour spent on Zoom is an hour not spent shipping your product."
- 100% Retainer Efficiency: Traditional agencies bill you for talking to them. Here, 100% of your retainer goes directly into code, architecture, and deployments.
- Living, Searchable Documentation: Communication happens via Linear tickets and GitHub PRs. Every architectural decision, edge case, and dependency is permanently documented.
- Zero Timezone Friction: Whether you're in San Francisco, London, or Bengaluru, your pipeline never waits for a calendar opening. Submit specs at midnight; wake up to a reviewed PR.
You can't fake 20 years of production scars.
In 2026, anyone can prompt an LLM to generate code. But when an edge worker hits a race condition under 50,000 RPS, only fundamental engineering experience saves you.
Pre-AI Rigor Meets 2026 AI Velocity
Before AI code generation existed, I spent two decades architecting, building, and maintaining over 106 production systems—spanning high-traffic e-commerce backends, custom checkout funnels, and high-concurrency SaaS applications.
I leverage modern AI tools (Cursor, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate boilerplate creation, but every architectural design pattern, security posture, and database index is governed by 20 years of battle-tested engineering judgment.
- ✅ Zero Junior Handoffs: Every single line of code is written and reviewed by a principal engineer.
- ✅ Zero Offshore Outsourcing: No white-label contractors or third parties touching your repository.
- ✅ First-Principles Architecture: Clean data schemas, Lamport timestamp consistency, and minimal bundle sizes.

Frequently asked questions.
Everything you need to know about our asynchronous Development-as-a-Service model.
How can I trust you to build my product without an initial discovery call? ▾
A 30-minute discovery call is typically sales theater, not technical validation. You can verify my technical capability through my documented case studies, open architectural patterns, and the raw speed of this edge-native site. Furthermore, you are protected by month-to-month billing: if my delivery does not surpass your standards in month one, cancel immediately with a single click.
What does "unlimited requests" actually mean? ▾
There is no cap on how many requests you can add to your backlog. Drag and drop your tasks in order of priority. We tackle them sequentially. If a project is extensive, I break it down into clean, testable sub-tasks, shipping verified pieces every 24 to 48 hours.
Why do you enforce a strict limit of one active task at a time? ▾
Parallel multitasking in software development is an illusion that leads to context-switching lag, bug-ridden code, and delayed releases. By dedicating 100% of my focus to one single ticket, that ticket gets delivered with exceptional speed (24–48 hours) and production-grade quality. The moment it passes your review, the next ticket starts immediately.
How exactly do we communicate if there are zero calls? ▾
All communication happens asynchronously via your dedicated Linear workspace and GitHub pull requests. You can submit specs as written text, wireframes, Figma URLs, or quick Loom video walkthroughs. If I need clarification, I will ask concise, written questions directly on the ticket, preserving a permanent, searchable history of every project decision.
How do I log in to the Client Portal and manage my tasks? ▾
You can access your portal anytime at sazm.in/app by entering your subscriber email. Inside your dashboard, you can track real-time 24–48h SLA countdowns, prioritize tasks using drag-and-drop backlog reordering, and download completed deliverables directly.
Can I pause my subscription if I don't have work right now? ▾
Yes! If you finish a feature sprint and have nothing for me to build for the next two weeks, you can pause your subscription. Billing cycles are based on a 31-day period. For example, if you use the service for 20 days and pause, your remaining 11 days are banked in your account and resume whenever your next product milestone is ready.
Who actually writes the code? Do you outsource to cheap agencies? ▾
Every line of code and every architectural decision is executed personally by me—a senior engineer with over two decades of production experience and 106+ shipped systems. No junior developers, no sub-contractors, and no third-party white-labeling.
What tech stacks do you support? ▾
I specialize in high-performance modern web stacks: Astro 7, React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Node.js, and Cloudflare Edge infrastructure (Workers, D1 SQLite, R2 Storage, KV). If your codebase uses standard web technologies, I can step in, audit the repo, and begin shipping immediately.
What if I'm not satisfied with the work delivered? ▾
Revisions are unlimited. If a feature or design isn't 100% aligned with your expectations, leave feedback on the ticket. I will iterate on it until you are completely satisfied before moving to the next task in your queue.
Who owns the code and intellectual property? ▾
You do. You own 100% of the code, designs, and assets created for you upon delivery. All repositories and branches are transferred directly to your organization.
How do billing, taxes, and invoicing work? ▾
Transactions are handled seamlessly through our Merchant of Record (Lemon Squeezy / Stripe Managed Payments), which automatically generates compliant tax invoices and absorbs all cross-border VAT and sales tax liabilities. Pause or cancel anytime with a single click.
