Why You Don't Need
an Agency.

I've spent years working inside agencies. Here is my hot take on why the dropping the bloat gets you more for less.

The Telephone Game

Your request goes through three people before it reaches a developer. Guess how much gets lost.

Your Contact Can't Code

You're paying premium rates for technical work, but your main contact has never opened a terminal.

9-to-5 on Your Dime

Meetings, standups, internal syncs, status updates about status updates - all of it gets billed to you.

Your Details Get Lost in the Shuffle

Your project isn't the only one on the board. It's competing for attention with a dozen other clients. That critical detail you mentioned in last Tuesday's call? It's buried in a Jira ticket nobody's looked at since.

When you're one of a handful of clients instead of one of fifty, nothing falls through the cracks. I know your project because I'm the one building it - not managing a pipeline of them.

The Bait and Switch

The senior architect wowed you in the sales pitch. Great. Now meet the junior developer who's actually going to build your project. The person who sold you isn't the person who ships your code.

With me, what you see is what you get. The same 15+ years of experience that shows up on the first call is the same experience writing every line of your code.

Ready to skip the middlemen?

One developer. Direct communication. No surprises on the invoice.
