Engineering Retainer

Ongoing development, maintenance and support for products that are already live, with reserved monthly capacity.

Who it is for

  • Agencies supporting client products after launch
  • Founders who need senior engineers without hiring
  • Businesses whose software must stay secure and up to date

What is included

  • Reserved monthly capacity
  • Feature work and fixes
  • Security and dependency updates
  • Monthly report you can forward

Software that is not maintained gets slower, less secure and harder to change. A retainer keeps a senior team familiar with your product, so changes are quick and safe.

Agencies use it to offer their clients ongoing support under their own brand.

How it works

From first call to delivery.

  1. Plan

    Priorities agreed each month.

  2. Build

    Features and fixes from a shared backlog.

  3. Protect

    Security and dependency updates, with monitoring.

  4. Report

    A monthly report you can forward.

Questions

Questions about Engineering Retainer

What does maintenance include?

Security and dependency updates, monitoring, bug fixes and small features within your monthly capacity.

Can you support a product you did not build?

Yes, after a short audit so we understand the codebase first.

What do we receive each month?

A report of what was done and what is planned next, written so you can forward it to your client.
