How this compares. A US-based fractional DevOps/SRE engineer typically bills $140–200/hr; a boutique DevOps consultancy commonly retains at $8,000–15,000/mo. You get the same senior, US-based, end-to-end engineering here — starting at $499/mo, with no lock-in and $1M of professional liability insurance behind every engagement.
For small teams or devs who want elite ops without the overhead.

Different category. Commodity server-support shops are built around an offshore ticket queue and per-hour break/fix. We're the alternative to a US fractional DevOps/SRE engineer (typically $140–200/hr) or a boutique consultancy retainer ($8–15k/mo): you get a named senior US engineer with direct access, modern cloud-native depth, and end-to-end ownership from architecture through a documented runbook — at a fraction of the consultancy price.
No long-term contract is required — plans are billed monthly and you can cancel any time. For clients who prefer a longer partnership, we offer optional annual agreements with built-in savings and priority scheduling.
Yes! Pay annually and you'll receive up to 20% off your total. Annual clients enjoy uninterrupted service, locked-in rates and priority time slots for bigger projects.
We offer a full refund within 7 days — as long as manual work hasn't started. If we've already begun working, your hours will be applied and the plan remains active for the month. Please contact us with any questions.
Absolutely — there are no cancellation fees or penalties. Your plan remains active until the end of your current billing cycle. For annual plans, reach out to our team to discuss the best approach for your needs.
Pick your plan, tell us what you're building or fixing, and a senior engineer takes it from architecture to a documented runbook. No lock-in, no hand-offs to a junior queue.
