When to hire a team
- If you need several kinds of support at once, or a set of AI agents and automated workflows running parts of your business, hire a team.
- I can build part of a project like that, and I'll tell you up front which part. The rest needs more people than one, and I won't pretend otherwise.
When one developer is better
- You talk to one person, so there's no chain of people for your message to get lost in.
- You can see their work before you hire them, and their name is on everything they ship. That's why you went to them in the first place.
- With a team you rarely know who built the part that matters. When something fails, it can be hard to find who owns it.
Nobody locked in
- Whoever you hire, make sure the code and every key are yours at the end. With me they are, once the final invoice is paid.
