Your own dedicated development team in India.
Lab-type development (ラボ型開発) reserves a fixed number of engineers exclusively for you over a period of time. Priorities can change freely and knowledge stays in the team, which makes it ideal for continuous product development.
Lab-type vs fixed-scope
Fixed-scope projects deliver an agreed scope for an agreed price. Lab-type reserves team capacity and lets you reprioritise inside it. When requirements are still evolving, when you want continuous improvement or when you want an in-house-like team at lower cost, lab-type fits best.
- Change scope and priorities freely
- Domain knowledge accumulates in the team
- Fixed monthly cost, easy budgeting
- Works in your tools and processes

You can start with one engineer. Common configurations are:
- Small: 2 engineers + bridge SE (acting PM)

- Large: 8+ engineers + QA + DevOps + PM + bridge SE
