What makes GridCore different from other software agencies?
GridCore is a senior-led software development and AI automation agency serving the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. Every engineer has 5+ years of hands-on experience. Engagements are month-to-month with no lock-in, and all code is work-for-hire IP — fully transferred to you.
What is team augmentation?+
Team augmentation is when you hire external senior engineers who embed directly into your existing development team — using your tools, your repo, your processes — rather than handing a project to an outsourced agency. GridCore engineers start in 3 to 5 days and work month-to-month.
How much does it cost to hire a senior developer monthly?+
GridCore team augmentation starts at $1,500 per month for 10 hours per week (quarter-time), $2,500 per month for 20 hours per week (half-time), and $4,000 per month for full-time. All plans are month-to-month with two weeks' notice to cancel.
What is AI automation for small business?+
AI automation uses large language models and AI agents to run business workflows that previously required a human — answering leads, qualifying prospects, updating CRMs, summarising meetings, and generating reports. GridCore builds and manages these systems end-to-end for business owners.
How much does it cost to build an MVP?+
At GridCore, a lean MVP typically costs between $4,000 and $8,000 and is built in 4 to 8 weeks. A full-featured MVP starts at $10,000. All projects include a scope and feature prioritisation workshop before any code is written.
Do you work with early-stage startups or only established companies?+
Both. GridCore works with early-stage founders building their first MVP and with established product teams that need extra engineering firepower. Month-to-month engagement models are designed to fit any stage and budget.
Stop waiting. Start shipping.
GridCore plugs senior engineers into your team in under 5 days. No fluff, no lock-in — just clean code, fast delivery, and work you own.
