Software that just works.

A small firm where the senior engineers who scope the work also build it, instead of handing it to a bench. Shipverra is one: more than 25 startups and businesses since 2020, a 5.0 Clutch rating across 26 reviews, and a team small enough that the people on your call are the people in your repo. We turn down work we would have to staff with people you have not met.

In four forms, and every build gets at least the first. Engineering augmentation: our engineers work with AI tooling on every project, which is how a small team ships at the pace of a larger one. Native AI products: applications built around models, agents, and retrieval. AI integrated into existing applications: adding AI features to software you already run. AI integrated into business processes and workflows: custom agents that take over operational work, built and run as a managed service. The same senior engineers decide which form fits, and leave AI out of a component when it does not pay.

It depends on scope, so we price in steps you can see. Product builds start with Sprint 0, a fixed fee of $5,000 to $15,000 for two to four weeks that produces the scope, the architecture, and a milestone plan with every milestone priced; the build then bills per accepted milestone, and you can stop at any one. Dedicated teams run on a monthly retainer sized to the team you approve. The AI Readiness Assessment is a fixed fee scoped on the intro call. Custom AI agents are one setup fee plus one monthly fee. You are never billed by the hour.

Senior engineers scope and lead every engagement: the engineer on your discovery call is the one who writes the code. On team engagements you interview and approve each engineer before they join, and replacement terms are written into the agreement. Shipverra, Inc. is registered in Delaware, United States. No offshore handoff and no account-manager layer between you and the people doing the work.

You do. The engagement agreement assigns the code, designs, documentation, and any prompts or fine-tuned artifacts to you on payment. Milestone builds can end at any milestone and you keep everything delivered; dedicated-team engagements carry replacement and buyout terms in writing. Nothing is locked to our tooling or hosting accounts.

Startups building a product, AI-native or not, and businesses putting AI into how they run: founders and early-stage teams who need the product shipped, operators automating workflows, and leaders mapping where AI pays off. Mostly US and Canadian companies. Not enterprise procurement or RFP processes, not hourly freelance staff augmentation, and not builds we would have to staff below our own bar.

It starts with a 30-minute call. If the fit holds, Sprint 0 lands a buildable scope in two to four weeks. For dedicated teams, they are staffed and working in your workflow within two to four weeks. An AI Readiness Assessment takes two to three weeks. If we are not the right fit, we say so on the call.
