I'm one of the founders of Flexy. Happy to answer questions.
The insight that led to this: I watched a friend's startup spend 3 weeks
hiring a contractor for a 2-day task. The friction—interviews, contracts,
onboarding—wasn't worth it. But they couldn't just ask their engineers to
drop everything, and they couldn't wait 3 weeks.
Productized services work great for other verticals (design, marketing,
copywriting). We thought: why not development?
The hard part wasn't the development—it's the matching. Getting the right
developer for each task's tech stack. We've built our vetting and matching
process around that.
Feel free to ask about pricing, use cases, tech stack limitations, or why
we think this is better than Toptal/Upwork/agencies. Happy to engage.
- throwaway81523 11mo agoHow much do you pay developers, and are you recruiting them? Your site says nothing about that. IME the client always wants to change the scope of the work after it starts. How do you handle that?
- plakhlani2 11mo agoWe are IT Service company with so many developers in-house. For the skill gap, we have vetted the most efficient partner companies in local area making us the most efficient to handle any tech stack. We have scope of work in the quote. If client wants to change anything, depending on status of the task and the impact of change, we charge additional amount and record a scope of work change or additions.
