NDAs & IP assignment, answered.
When does ownership of the work transfer to us?
For dedicated engagements, on payment of the invoice covering the period the work was created in. Until then you hold a licence to use it for the engagement. The full terms are in our Terms & Conditions.
Can we use our own NDA instead?
Yes. If you have your own agreements, we will have the professional sign yours alongside ours.
How quickly can we start?
Most teams see an interview-ready shortlist within 48 hours to 3–5 business days, and finalise a hire within one to two weeks. The pace mostly comes down to how quickly you can review profiles and run interviews.
What does it cost?
Dedicated talent starts from $1,499/month per hire and scales with seniority and whether the role is part-time or full-time. Direct-hire placement is a one-time fee from 15% of first-year salary. Both are quoted in writing before you commit, with no upfront cost and no setup fee.
What if the hire is not right?
Dedicated hires carry a two-week risk-free trial and a free replacement within 90 days. Direct-hire placements carry a replacement window of 60 to 180 days depending on seniority. The full terms are on our Refund Policy page.
