Let's talk about what you are actually trying to build
Send a short brief — what you are building, the tech context, the timeline, and the rough budget. I reply personally within 24 hours, usually same-day during IST working hours. No template forms, no sales funnel.
Reply within 24 hours
Every brief gets a real reply, not a calendar link. Usually same-day if sent during IST working hours.
Honest fit check
If your project is not a strong fit, I will tell you on the first reply — and refer you somewhere better when I can.
No sales funnel
No drip emails, no upsells, no template proposals. Just a direct conversation with the engineer who would do the work.

Frequently asked before reaching out
See pricingWhat information should I include in my first message?
A short description of what you are building or fixing, the tech stack if known, your rough timeline, and your rough budget range. Even a 4-line message is enough to start.
Do you take on small one-off tasks?
Yes. Short tasks under 10 hours are usually billed at the direct rate. See the pricing page for hourly rates.
Can you sign an NDA before we discuss details?
Yes. I am happy to sign a mutual NDA before discussing anything sensitive. Send it along with your first message.
Which time zones do you work with?
I am based in IST (UTC+5:30) and regularly work with US, EU, UK, and APAC clients. I block 2–3 hours of overlap with each client per week.
