Dedicated teams you can name,
not a ticket queue.
A named group of senior engineers, marketers or designers working as an extension of your team: your tools, your cadence, your priorities, one transparent monthly rate. You meet every member before signing, and the project manager is part of the team.

What we do
A dedicated team at PixelCrayons is a named group of senior specialists working as an extension of yours, in your tools. You meet each person before you commit, a project manager is included, and one monthly rate covers it, scaling under written notice. We work direct for brands and white-label for agencies.

Where the work happens
In every team
What the monthly rate
actually covers.
01
A named team, chosen with you
You see exactly who is on your team (role, seniority, specialism) and you interview each of them before anything is signed. The same people stay on your account so context compounds; nobody is swapped out without your sign-off.
Named
02
A project manager, included
Every team comes with a PM who runs the cadence, keeps the backlog current and acts as your single point of contact. That's part of the team's rate, not a management fee bolted on after you've agreed a number.
In the rate
03
Your tools, your cadence
The team joins your Slack or Teams, your tracker, your standups and your review rhythm. If you'd rather hand the process over, the PM runs it in whatever tools you prefer. Either way, nothing about how you work has to change.
Your stack
04
One transparent monthly rate
Teams are priced per month (the third of the three engagement shapes on our pricing page). There's no single menu price because no two teams match. Each role page shows an indicative monthly range in your currency, and the itemised proposal turns it into a real number agreed in writing before the team starts.
Monthly
05
Scale rules, notice periods included
Add a role when the roadmap grows; release one when it doesn't. Both directions carry a notice period agreed upfront in the contract. We say that plainly because "scale down anytime" with no notice is a promise nobody running senior teams can keep.
Agreed upfront
06
Your IP, clean (NDA first)
Everything the team produces is assigned to you: code, designs, documents, credentials, accounts. The NDA is signed before we see anything sensitive. Agency partners get the same client-protection terms as every engagement here: we do not approach the clients they introduce to us for direct business, and those terms are agreed before work begins.
Contractual
How it starts
Meet them, trial them,
then commit.
01
Start
Brief and a call
We sign an NDA and talk through what the team needs to do, not a headcount order form.
02
Once the brief is complete
Proposal and interview
We confirm when your proposal arrives: the roles, the seniority and an itemised monthly rate. You interview every proposed member and can ask for a swap.
03
Your decision
You sign off
You confirm the scope, the payment and the access we need. Nothing starts before this.
04
Typically 2 to 3 business days later
The team starts
The team joins your tools and cadence. For eligible roles, the first sprint runs as the trial: end inside it and eligible trial hours aren't billed.
05
Every month
Scale either way
A weekly review in Prism tied to outcomes, and roles scale up or down under the notice rules you agreed.
Inside Prism
Your specialist, week to week,
in your workspace.
Prism is the client workspace where your requests, approvals, tasks and weekly reviews live.
Where the engagement includes it, the specialist you hire works inside your Prism workspace: their tasks, their routines and the weekly review live where you can see them.
Interview the person first · Scale monthly · Their work lives in your workspace
- 01
Their tasks, owned and dated
Every task the specialist takes on has their name and a date on it, in your workspace, not in a report about it.
- 02
Requests and approvals, in one place
Raise a request in your workspace, approve a piece of work, and see who owns it and when it is due.
- 03
A weekly review with decisions recorded
Each decision is written down with the expectation attached: what we expect to change, and by when.
- 04
Every action recorded, checked against the outcome
What we did and what happened sit side by side, so the next review starts from evidence rather than memory.

Dedicated team, white-label, or something else?
A dedicated team can serve your brand directly, or work under an agency's brand for that agency's clients. If everything must ship under your brand, white-label is the shape you want; if you're still comparing, see how every engagement here runs.

Our commitments
Each one says where it applies and links to its full terms.
14-Day Risk-Free Trial
For eligible managed specialists. Up to 14 calendar days or 80 logged working hours, whichever comes first. End within the trial and pay nothing for eligible trial hours. Continue beyond it and those hours are billed at the agreed rate. Unpaid trial work remains ours if you stop.
Eligible managed-specialist roles only, one trial per customer. Not offered for AI, chatbot, prompt, automation, API-integration or QA work. Brand and graphic designers, brand strategists, video editors, content writers, copywriters and content marketers start with a paid pilot.
Full termsTime-zone overlap
At least four hours a day inside your core working hours. Two hours plus a daily written handover for the US West Coast.
Managed specialists only; not a staffing promise for project teams.

All engagements. Roles may be combined and vary with your engagement.
Full termsWhy not just hire a freelancer?
A freelancer can be the right choice for a single, well-defined task. We are set up for work that needs an accountable team: a named coordinator, delivery reviewed by QA and a senior lead before release, and continuity arrangements written into the engagement. Confidentiality, ownership and escalation terms are agreed in writing before work starts.
How does time-zone overlap work?
Your engineers work at least four hours a day inside your core working hours. We set the window with you before the engagement starts and hold it for as long as the engagement runs. For the US West Coast the live overlap is two hours each morning, with a written handover at the end of every Indian day. We do not run night shifts: engineers who work nights leave quickly, and keeping the same people on your team matters more to us than a longer overlap.
Can we try you before we commit?
For eligible managed specialists, yes: up to 14 calendar days or 80 logged working hours, whichever comes first. Stop within it and eligible trial hours are free; continue and they're billed at the agreed rate. Unpaid trial work stays ours. Project work and other roles get a paid pilot with scope, acceptance criteria, duration and fee agreed first.
What if we want to stop?
Cancellation, notice and any renewal terms are written into your proposal or statement of work before you accept it. If an engagement ends early, we hand over completed, paid-for work and list any unfinished work separately. For an eligible specialist trial, you can stop within the trial window and pay nothing for eligible trial hours.
How we handle claims, credentials and your data: group credentials, dated ratings, how case figures are signed off, client permissions and data handling.
Choosing the shape
A role, a team
or a freelancer?
The scoping call is about what the team needs to do, not a headcount order form. This is how the work decides the shape, including when a dedicated team is not the answer.
| The work | The shape | Why |
|---|---|---|
| One well-defined task | A freelancer | That is the right call for a single task. A dedicated team is for work that runs for months. |
| One specialist missing from a team that otherwise works | That role on its own | Each role page shows the skills, the engagement steps and an indicative monthly rate. |
| Several disciplines pulling in one direction for months | A dedicated team | The members already work together, a project manager runs the cadence, and work is QA-reviewed before it reaches you. |
| A product owner already runs your backlog | A team inside your process | It joins your tools and standups, and you are never the one chasing individual contributors. |
| You want to judge fit before committing | Interviews, then the 14-day trial for eligible roles | You meet every member before signing, can ask for swaps, then see a full sprint on real backlog work. |
Scaling up or down later carries notice periods, agreed in writing before you start.
Questions
Frequently
asked.
Mostly speed and shape. Recruiting a senior team takes months; eligible work can typically start two to three business days after scope, payment and required access are confirmed. Roles change with the roadmap under agreed notice, without redundancy processes. The rate is itemised per role, so you can run the salary comparison yourself.
A dedicated team isn't a collection of individuals you coordinate yourself. The members already work together, a project manager runs the cadence, and work is QA-reviewed before it reaches you, under one contract and one invoice. Freelancers suit a single well-defined task; a dedicated team suits work that needs several disciplines for months.
The term is agreed per proposal, and teams run month to month after it. It isn't a "cancel anytime" product: scaling down and ending both carry notice periods, agreed in writing before you start. You'll see the exact term and notice in the proposal before you sign.
The team's project manager runs delivery (standups, backlog hygiene, blockers, the weekly review in Prism) and you set direction and priorities. If you'd rather run the backlog yourself through your own product owner or producer, the team slots into your process instead. Either way you're never the one chasing individual contributors; that's what the PM is for.
For eligible managed specialists. Up to 14 calendar days or 80 logged working hours, whichever comes first. End within the trial and pay nothing for eligible trial hours. Continue beyond it and those hours are billed at the agreed rate. Unpaid trial work remains ours if you stop.
Yes, it's a step in the process, not a favour. Once the team is proposed you meet every member on a video call before anything is signed. You can ask us to swap anyone who doesn't fit. The 14-day trial then lets you judge the team on real work before the engagement settles in.
We tell you straight away, propose a replacement for you to interview, and overlap the handover wherever notice allows. Account knowledge is kept in shared documentation from day one precisely so it never lives in one head. Continuity is the product here.
Yes, we're headquartered in Noida, India. When you hire Indian developers through a dedicated team, they work remotely inside your tools, standups and review rhythm, and you know who coordinates and how to escalate. To hire a software developer in India for one role, use its page in the directory above. You meet every person before anything is signed.
Through a marketplace you coordinate individuals yourself; a dedicated team is named, and you interview every member on video before anything is signed. A project manager is included, and scale rules, notice periods and IP terms are agreed in writing. For eligible roles, the trial lets you judge the team on real work.
