Web-Based Apps

Yes. Most of our clients are in the UK, the US and Australia. Your developer works your hours, and a UK-based client success manager is your point of contact throughout.

Cloud Employee is the employer of record, so your developer is our full-time employee rather than a contractor you engage directly. We handle their payroll, benefits and HR in their own country.

Typically 50-75% less than a comparable UK hire once salary, employer costs and overheads are counted. Rates run from roughly £28 to £63 an hour ($35-80, depending on seniority), billed as one monthly fee with no placement charges.

Vetting is CTO-led and covers a technical assessment, a live pair programming session and cultural fit screening, all run by senior engineers rather than recruiters. You interview a shortlist of two matched candidates.

You are typically interviewing matched candidates within 7 working days of a requirements call, and developers are often embedded and pushing code within about two weeks.

There is a two-week money-back guarantee, and if you want to continue we replace the developer free of charge.

Your developer's working hours are aligned to yours, so stand-ups and pairing happen through the UK day, and we keep cover available outside standard hours for anything critical.

There are no placement fees and you pay nothing to interview. Vetting is run by our in-house CTO with peer review from senior engineers, and after the hire we stay responsible for HR, payroll and retention rather than disappearing once the invoice clears.

Yes, always. Your developer sits in your Slack, email and daily channels as a full member of your team, and can even list your company on their LinkedIn if you prefer.

Yes, clients are welcome at our offices, which are set up for exactly that. Hire four or more developers and we cover the flights and accommodation for a visit.

You'll receive a launch-ready product, fully tested, deployed, and handed over with clean documentation, source code, and a clear path for scaling or ongoing support.

Both work. Bring your own designs, or let our in-house designers handle UX and UI as part of the build.

We can audit your existing work and build on top of it, or help you start fresh if it's faster, safer, or more scalable.

Nope. We handle day-to-day project management, progress tracking, and delivery, you just stay in the loop and make key decisions.

That depends on the scope. We'll define timelines during the scoping phase and keep delivery lean and milestone-driven.

We can support post-launch updates, bug fixes, and new features, or help you build your own embedded team to take it forward.

Yes. We deliver full-stack products, front end, back end, mobile apps, and APIs, designed to work together from day one.

Yes. It's your IP. You'll receive full access to the codebase, repos, and all project documentation.

We offer both fixed-price and flexible engagement models, depending on the scope, complexity, and timeline.

We scope tightly up front but remain flexible. If priorities shift, we can adjust your roadmap or re-scope milestones without derailing delivery.

We offer strategic product and technical consulting, scoping features, planning roadmaps, validating AI use cases, and advising on build decisions.

This isn't just discovery fluff. Our consultants are CTOs, engineers and PMs who know how to ship. You'll leave with actionable output, not just slides.

Not at all. We'll help shape your ideas into something buildable, whether it's an MVP, a prototype, or a feature release plan.

Yes. We recommend tech based on your product needs, not on what we happen to know. Stack-agnostic, outcome-first guidance.

No. Our scoping and consulting services are standalone. You can take the plan elsewhere, or build with us when you're ready.

Not at all. We work with both technical founders and non-technical leaders. We translate ideas into build-ready outcomes, no jargon required.

Absolutely. We'll help define the leanest version of your product that delivers real user value, fast and buildable.

Yes. We help teams assess AI feasibility, recommend models, and shape realistic delivery plans, without the buzzword noise.

Yes. You can start with a focused engagement to explore ideas or validate direction. No long-term commitment required.

You are typically interviewing matched candidates within 7 working days of a requirements call, and developers are often embedded and pushing code within about two weeks. From there it is a rolling monthly contract with 30 days' notice, one monthly fee, and no placement charges. You can scale up or down as the work changes, and you pay nothing to interview.
