Skip the hiring funnel, the onboarding weeks, and the hand-holding. One engineer, one subscription, one inbox — shipping this week.
Book a 30-min introEverything, in one thread
Every brief, review, diff, and CI log lives in a single Slack conversation — no Jira tabs, no DM sprawl.
Unlimited scope
Bugs, features, refactors, migrations — anything you'd hand a senior engineer. No ticket counting.
Work is performed by senior engineers using AI tooling. Scope, pace, and outcomes vary per engagement. Cancel anytime.
$2,349/month, flat. A small pod of senior engineers on call for a team's queue of small, unassignable work. Use-it-or-lose-it hours each month — no stockpiling, no procurement dance. Waitlist opens into a proper spec once engineer #2 is in seat.
Join Waitlist
Not a 24/7 pager. Not a junior on-call. A senior engineer in your Slack channel inside an hour, for the three things that need it this week — launches, incidents, hot migrations. Enable Rush the month you need it, drop it the month you don't.
Talk to Raphael
You know the shape of the work, the deadline, and the ceiling you'd pay. We agree on all three, ship, and get out — no retainer, no ongoing overhead. If the deliverable doesn't match the spec, half comes back.
Scope a Bounty
Your engineer, backed by a second A-player review, answers questions about your stack, architecture, and day-to-day tradeoffs—so you have the guidance you need to ship safely and grow.
Join the engineers and teams who have trusted Symbai to unblock their queue — shipping the small stuff that matters without adding headcount.
