1000+ on-demand developers
with startup hustle
That exact excellent service and expertise you are after. Only 36% to 58% of the cost
You could save $1,000s by:
- hiring devs in eastern europe and latin america, where the cost of living is 40.5% lower than in the United States
- working with a smaller, agile team at Lemon
You deserve experienced devs. Ones worth your hard-earned funds. With Lemon, you’re guaranteed skilled, dependable devs. But if your Lemon developer should miss a deadline or fail to meet expectations, we’ll match you with a new developer. Without shifting your project schedule or cost. We’ve never had to do this. But it’s our promise. Just in case.
When you hire from a mega-corp, you’re likely funding much more than developer rates
salaries for 500-person teams aren’t conjured up from thin air. budgets for big marketing spends aren’t, either. With a startup like lemon, chances your fees are fueling the daily ops of a massive global hiring machine are zero.
Lemon’s low overhead means this:
we can charge less while still giving you access to top senior talent.
Clean communication, focused
A perfectly crafted price : quality ratio
Why you’ll never have incompetent devs sabotaging your product release with Lemon
Your developers from Lemon are rigorously tested and pre-vetted for technical, social and communication skills
The startup hustle isn’t ideal for every engineer. That’s why we vet our developers — ruthlessly and thoroughly — to save you time and stress in the long run.
We call the Lemon vetting process the 4 levels of judgment. Fewer than 400 developers have ever made it through the initiation.
The result? A utopia of outstaffed software engineers.
