Skip the freelancer roulette. Get dedicated developers, customer success reps, and sales professionals who work exclusively for your startup—at 70% less cost than domestic hires.
From technical co-founders to customer success heroes, build your Philippine team with roles that matter. Full-time employees (not gig workers) who integrate with your culture and grow with your business.
Growing startups face the freelancer trap: cheap but unreliable talent that creates more problems than solutions:
Endless interviews, no guarantees on quality.
Disappear mid-project or jump to higher bidders.
Work in isolation, don't understand your mission.
Critical work happens when you're asleep.
Can't build cohesive teams with gig workers.
The smart move? Build a real team with dedicated full-time employees who work exclusively for your startup and grow with your vision.
