Hire an AI engineer. Watch a week of their work first.
You can hire someone who lists the right models on their CV, or you can watch one work. Send us a real item from your backlog. An AI Native engineer takes it for a week, free, with agents doing the volume and a person reading every diff. Day 8 you sign at $4,000 a month, all-in, or you walk away.
Generating the code was never the hard part
Anyone can produce a working function now. What decides whether it survives contact with production is the part agents do not do on their own: choosing what to build, noticing what the prompt did not say, and owning it afterwards.
Industry research puts 59.4% of agent effort into review against 8.6% into generation. The work moved. An AI engineer worth hiring is one who has moved with it.
One engineer, several agents, nothing ships unread
How the work gets built is agreed with you before any code is generated, and written down so every agent follows the same rules. During the week the engineer runs several agents and reads everything they hand back, in short cycles rather than one review at the end.
That is also why one person covers more ground than the headcount suggests, and why we can put a real week behind a free trial without it being a loss leader.
Bring the thing you keep pushing down the list
An agent workflow that keeps breaking. A model swap nobody has had time to test. A retrieval pipeline that works on the demo data and not on yours. An evaluation harness you have been meaning to write. A migration. A flaky test suite.
Real, bounded, done in seven days. If it does not fit, we tell you at scoping, before you have spent a minute.
