Large software projects

Outsource a large software project at a fixed price.

A backlog measured in months of conventional work does not have to take months. AIPOS OÜ runs a multi-agent system that builds, tests and documents production code around the clock, against an architecture and specification designed in-house by AIPOS OÜ and agreed with you in writing. You get one price, one written scope and tested code delivered to you at every milestone.

The situation

Large projects fail on scope, speed and surprises.

Most large software projects are bought as hours. Hours reward delay, hide scope creep behind a timesheet, and leave you managing a vendor instead of a result.

Budget

Time-and-materials turns risk into your invoice

When a project is billed by the hour, every underestimate, every rewrite and every slow week is paid for by the buyer. The price is known only when the work ends.

Speed

Quarters, not days

A conventional team ships in sprints and waits for people: hiring, onboarding, reviews, holidays. The calendar, not the work, sets the pace.

Control

You end up managing the vendor

Stand-ups, status calls and steering meetings consume your own senior people. The output you actually want, tested code you can run, arrives last.

What you get, compared with the alternative

What you get Large software projects

The whole scope, one price, tested code in days

We quote the full scope at a fixed price after a real trial build on your own code. The system then works in continuous cycles until the scope is delivered.

  • A written scope description before any money changes hands
  • A trial build: a genuine part of your plan, delivered within 72 hours of written confirmation
  • The full scope at one fixed price, quoted in writing after the trial
  • Every change tested and reviewed; delivered as a package with documentation, tests and git history
  • Architecture and specification by AIPOS OÜ, agreed with you before any code is written
  • Full intellectual property transferred to you

Compared with Conventional outsourcing

Hours, sprints and status meetings

A time-and-materials vendor sells you people and time. The result depends on how many of those people you can manage and how long you can keep paying. We sell a defined result at a fixed price, and all communication is written, so there is nothing to manage but the scope.

  • Price known only when the work ends
  • Pace set by sprints, hiring and holidays
  • Your senior people run the vendor
  • Scope creep hidden in timesheets

Instead of hiring developers: the full comparison

See the full process

24/7 from sign-off

Your project starts. It never stops.

A large scope does not wait for a team to assemble. From the moment the scope is signed off, an autonomous development system works on it 24/7 until the last item is delivered — no nights off, no weekends, no handovers. Months of team output, delivered in days and weeks.

01

Starts within hours

Work begins within hours of your written scope sign-off. No recruiting, no onboarding, no waiting for a sprint to open.

02

Runs around the clock

Autonomous and continuous until delivery: no nights off, no weekends, no handovers, no pauses.

03

Progress you can see daily

Every change is tested and committed in AIPOS OÜ's own secure development environment. You receive a written progress report every day, and tested code of your product is delivered at agreed milestones — in full after final payment.

04

Architecture agreed first

The architecture and specification are designed in-house by AIPOS OÜ and agreed with you in writing before any code is written.

Choose this if you need serious development capacity fast, without hiring a team.

The process

From request to delivered scope.

The sequence is identical for every project. Nothing starts without a written scope; nothing is merged without tests and an independent review.

01

Describe the project

You send the project description, technology, approximate scope and deadline through the form. You receive a written scope description for a trial build.

02

Trial build, 72 hours

After your written confirmation, a real piece of your plan is delivered within 72 hours as tested, documented code with full IP. Fixed price 9,900 euros.

03

Fixed quote for the full scope

You judge the result on your own code. If you continue, you receive one fixed price for the whole scope, and the trial price is deducted in full.

04

Continuous delivery

The system builds, tests, reviews and documents in 24/7 cycles. You receive a written progress report every day and, at every milestone, a preview link, a test report and the code as a package, until the scope is complete.

Trust & delivery standards

Your systems stay untouched. Your product arrives tested.

All development happens in AIPOS OÜ's own secure environment. We never connect to your code hosting, servers, cloud accounts or development environment, so no outside party enters your systems and your supplier and security risk stays small. You receive tested code as a clean package, not half-finished changes in your main branch, and you follow progress every day without watching any technical tools.

Code quality

How the code is built and handed over

  • Tests and independent review. Every change passes the automated test suite and an independent review agent before it is merged.
  • Documentation, tests, history. You receive the documentation, the tests and the complete git history of your product's code.
  • No dependency on our tools. Code and intellectual property transfer to you without any dependency on AIPOS OÜ's tooling: the product builds, tests and runs from the delivered package with publicly available tools.
  • 30 days of free fixes. Defects found within 30 days of hand-over are fixed free of charge, within the written scope description.
Project delivery

How you verify the work without seeing our environment

  • Specification first. A written specification with measurable acceptance criteria, prepared by AIPOS OÜ and confirmed by you before development starts.
  • A written report every day. By e-mail: what was done, which tests passed, where the work stands against the criteria, the next step, and whether anything needs your answer.
  • Preview at every milestone. A password-protected preview link where you try your product working, at every milestone.
  • Code you can audit. At every milestone, a test report and the product's code at that point as a file package: run it yourself or have an independent developer audit it. The complete code follows final payment.
  • Written acceptance. You accept in writing against the agreed criteria. 50% is paid on scope confirmation and 50% only after acceptance; then 30 days of free defect fixing within the written scope. All communication is by e-mail.

Company details, security, warranty, payment and VAT terms in one place: Trust & delivery standards. The binding wording is in the terms of service.

Prices

Two steps, both at a fixed price.

You see the price before any work starts. There is no hourly billing and no staff rental. The trial build is a real piece of your plan, and its price comes off the main project in full.

Step 1 · Trial build
€9,900fixed · excl. VAT

A real part of your development plan, delivered within 72 hours of your written scope confirmation as a preview link, a test report and a code package. Full intellectual property to you. 50% on sign-off, 50% after written acceptance; 30 days of free defect fixing. Deducted in full from the main project.

Founding clients
€4,900first three clients · excl. VAT

The first three clients receive the trial build for 4,900 euros in exchange for a public reference once the work is delivered.

Step 2 · Main project
Fixedquoted in writing · excl. VAT

The whole scope at one fixed price, delivered in days and weeks. Every change is tested and committed. Every project is built on a software architecture and technical specification designed in-house by AIPOS OÜ — reviewed and agreed with you in writing before development begins.

A good fit when

There is a large, specifiable plan

  • A backlog that would take a conventional team months
  • A scope that can be written down and tested against
  • A team that works well in writing and wants tested code it can audit
  • Any technology stack; any country; remote only
Not a fit when

You want to buy time rather than a result

  • Hourly or time-and-materials billing
  • Renting developers or embedding people in your team
  • Small, isolated one-off tasks
  • Work that requires calls or meetings

Questions

Questions buyers of large projects ask.

How can you fix the price for a large project?

Because the scope is fixed first. You receive a written scope description, confirm it in writing, and the trial build shows both sides what the specification looks like in practice. The main project is quoted only after that, as one fixed price for the whole confirmed scope. Changes to the scope are agreed in writing before they are built.

What happens if the scope changes during the project?

Scope changes are agreed in writing, with their effect on price and delivery stated before work on them begins. Nothing is built on an assumption, and nothing is billed by the hour.

Who is accountable for the architecture?

Every project is built on a software architecture and technical specification designed in-house by AIPOS OÜ — reviewed and agreed with you in writing before development begins. The multi-agent system builds, tests and documents against that specification; it does not decide the architecture on its own.

Do we keep the code and the intellectual property?

Yes. Full intellectual property in the deliverables transfers to you on full payment. You receive tested, documented code as a package at every milestone and in full after final payment, with its complete git history. The platform and methodology used to produce the work remain with AIPOS OÜ.

How is our codebase protected while an autonomous system works on it?

Each project runs in a separate, disposable environment inside AIPOS OÜ's infrastructure, with isolated containers and a locked-down network; the control environment is kept separate. AIPOS OÜ never connects to your systems: existing code reaches us as a file package you send, and the result returns to you the same way. Every delivery is scanned and reviewed by an independent review agent before it reaches you.

Can we start with something smaller than the whole project?

That is exactly what the trial build is for. It is a real, bounded piece of your development plan, not a demo, priced at 9,900 euros and delivered within 72 hours of written scope confirmation. If you continue, that amount is deducted in full from the main project.
