Hire a Dedicated Development Team That Ships
A founder-led, offshore dedicated development team that plugs into your roadmap. Transparent hourly pricing, billed only for hours worked, with 4+ hours of overlap with your timezone.
Discuss your projectWhen you hire a dedicated development team from Taapti, you get engineers who work as an extension of your company, not a black-box outsourcing vendor. Every project is led personally by our founder, Gopal Sabhadiya, who is Toptal top-3%, Expert-Vetted on Upwork, and an ex-Infosys Specialist Programmer. You set the priorities; we deliver against them sprint after sprint.
Our dedicated team model runs on time-and-materials billing: you pay only for hours actually worked, at a transparent hourly rate, invoiced in USD. No bloated bench, no idle-time markups, no surprises. Based in Surat, India, we serve clients worldwide in English and align 4+ hours with any timezone, so daily collaboration happens in real time instead of over a 24-hour email lag.
Founder-led on every project
Gopal Sabhadiya (Toptal top-3%, Expert-Vetted on Upwork, ex-Infosys Specialist Programmer) personally leads the engineering and stays accountable for delivery.
Pay only for hours worked
Transparent hourly, time-and-materials billing in USD. No idle bench, no minimums, no hidden markups, just an honest record of work delivered.
Real timezone overlap
We align 4+ hours with any timezone for live standups, pairing, and same-day decisions, whether you're in New York, London, or Sydney.
A team that scales with you
Start with one engineer or a full product pod of up to 10. Add or adjust roles as your roadmap shifts, without re-hiring or long ramp-up.
Proven across hard problems
From RAG-powered platforms to authentication microservices serving 500K+ users, we've shipped production systems that handle real scale and real revenue.
A long-term partner, not a gig
100% client-satisfaction record. We build for the long haul, owning context, code quality, and continuity instead of churning through hand-offs.
What a dedicated development team actually gives you
A dedicated development team is a group of engineers who work exclusively on your product over time, building deep context that contract-by-contract freelancers and traditional outsourcing simply can't match. Instead of re-explaining your domain every few weeks, you get a stable team that knows your codebase, your customers, and your roadmap.
With Taapti, that team is founder-led. Gopal reviews architecture, sets engineering standards, and stays hands-on, so you're not relying on a project manager relaying messages to anonymous developers. You get direct access to a senior technical owner alongside the people writing the code.
This is the difference between staff augmentation and a dedicated development team. Pure IT staff augmentation hands you individual developers to manage; our dedicated team model gives you a cohesive unit with shared ownership, established workflows, and clear roles, while you keep full control of priorities.
Transparent hourly pricing, billed only for hours worked
We bill on a simple time-and-materials basis: a clear developer hourly rate, invoiced in USD, for the hours we actually work. You see exactly what was built and what it cost. There's no retainer padding, no charging for an idle bench, and no opaque fixed-bid games where scope quietly shrinks to protect a margin.
This keeps dedicated development team cost predictable and fair. When your roadmap is busy, the team runs at full capacity; when you need to slow down, your spend drops with it. For most clients this lowers total cost of ownership compared with hiring in-house, where you carry salaries, benefits, recruiting, and ramp-up regardless of output.
Dedicated development team pricing depends on team size, seniority mix, and engagement length. We're happy to put together a blended hourly rate for a full pod or per-role rates for a smaller engagement. [founder to confirm exact rate card]
Built for scale, proven in production
We ship systems that hold up under load, not just seats to fill. For Bar.Stream, a hospitality automation platform, we built a Java/Spring Boot backend with a React/Next.js frontend, including RAG-based product size identification and classification for complete inventory reporting; the platform now serves 200+ B2B customers and roughly $500K in revenue.
For Invoxbooks.com, we built a Python platform combining AI invoice parsing, plumbing work management, vendor comparison, and order management, also powered by RAG, that saves the client around $200K per month. And for USP.org (United States Pharmacopeia), we delivered a horizontally scalable Spring Boot and Spring Security authentication microservice supporting 500K+ users.
These are the kinds of outcomes a dedicated software development team can deliver when the same people stay with the product long enough to truly understand it. Whether you need an MVP development team to get to market or a product engineering pod to scale an existing system, we bring the same standard of ownership.

Frequently asked questions
What is a dedicated development team? +
A dedicated development team is a group of engineers who work exclusively and continuously on your product, integrating with your processes and priorities like an in-house team. Unlike one-off outsourcing, they build lasting context in your domain and codebase. At Taapti, every dedicated team is led personally by our founder.
How much does a dedicated development team cost? +
We bill hourly on a time-and-materials basis in USD, so you pay only for hours actually worked, with no idle bench or hidden markups. Total cost depends on team size, seniority mix, and engagement length, and is typically lower than the fully loaded cost of equivalent in-house hires. [founder to confirm exact rate card]
What is the difference between staff augmentation and a dedicated development team? +
Staff augmentation gives you individual developers to manage directly within your own processes. A dedicated development team is a cohesive unit with shared ownership, established workflows, and defined roles. We can do either, but the dedicated team model usually delivers faster because the team already works well together.
When should you hire a dedicated development team? +
Hire a dedicated team when you have an ongoing roadmap rather than a one-off task, when you need to scale engineering capacity without a long hiring cycle, or when continuity and deep product knowledge matter. It's a strong fit for building an MVP, growing an existing product, or extending an in-house team.
How do you hire an offshore dedicated development team? +
Start with a conversation about your goals, stack, and timeline. We propose a team structure and a transparent hourly rate, agree on overlap hours (we align 4+ hours with any timezone), then start delivering. You keep control of priorities while our founder stays accountable for engineering and quality.
How are dedicated development teams billed? +
We use transparent time-and-materials billing: a clear hourly rate, invoiced in USD, for the hours we actually work. You get full visibility into what was built and what it cost, with no retainers, idle-time charges, or fixed-bid scope games.
