- Weekly timesheets
- Slack-first comms
- No minimum commit
Fixed-price Milestones
Scoped delivery with clear milestones and acceptance criteria. Best for well-defined Elasticsearch builds like an MVP, a migration or a specific module.
- Scope locked upfront
- Milestone acceptance
- Predictable budget
