A transparent walkthrough of how an engagement with Anssol actually runs — what we expect from your team, and what you can expect from ours.
We listen. You tell us what you're trying to build, what's already in place, and what hasn't worked yet. We ask questions and tell you honestly whether we're a good fit.
We turn the conversation into a written proposal: scope, deliverables, milestones, team composition, timeline, and price. Estimates come with the assumptions they rest on — not marketing-speak.
We sign a master services agreement plus a statement of work. You provision repo and infrastructure access for our team. We hold a one-hour kick-off meeting to align on tooling, communication and the first sprint's goals.
Before we ship features, we set up the foundations: CI, environments, the deployment story, observability hooks, and the architecture decisions we want to lock in. This is the work that pays back tenfold across the project.
Two-week sprints. Daily async standups in Slack. Weekly demo + planning call. Pull requests reviewed within 24 hours. You always know where things stand, and if something is off-track we tell you the moment we know — not at the next demo.
We document what we built, run training sessions for your team, and stay on retainer for a defined period to fix anything that comes up. After that, your team owns it — but we're always reachable if a question comes up later.
Operating principles
Most days, our communication is asynchronous — written updates in Slack, recorded videos in Loom, decisions logged in the project tracker. Synchronous calls happen when they actually move the work forward (kick-off, weekly demo, design reviews), not on a fixed timetable.
We don't add headcount to bill more hours. Most engagements are staffed with 1–3 senior engineers who can each cover the full stack the project needs. Smaller teams ship faster, have fewer coordination costs, and produce more coherent software.
Every estimate comes with the assumptions it rests on. If those assumptions turn out to be wrong, we re-estimate together — we don't quietly burn through hours and tell you at the end. The estimate is a tool for decision-making, not a contract for fiction.
All work product is yours from day one — code, data, models, IP. We don't keep copies, we don't license anything back to you, and we don't include hidden 'platform fees' in delivered software.
A 30-minute discovery call. No pitch — we just listen, ask questions, and tell you honestly whether we're a good fit.
