Hire
A Next.js developer for startups, without the agency overhead.
You need a senior engineer, not a department. I scope in writing, quote a fixed USD price before code, and build with the stack your product will still want as it scales: Next.js, TypeScript, Postgres, and boring infrastructure that doesn't page you at 3am. One person from first call to launch, and the invoice matches the quote to the dollar.
Fixed USD quote before code · 30-day warranty on the delivered scope
Scoped before you commit
A written scope with deliverables, fixed USD price and a delivery date: before a single line of code. If a cheaper route exists, the scope says so.
A stack that scales with your team
Next.js App Router, TypeScript end to end, Postgres with row-level isolation where it matters: the boring, hireable stack your future team already knows.
Weekly pushes to your repo
Progress lives in your GitHub from week one, credentials sit in your accounts, and delivery includes documentation: so you are never locked to one developer.
Honest timelines, in public
Every timeline I publish is measured across my own builds: a 13-day average across 7 self-initiated concept projects, landing pages in 1–2 weeks, MVPs about 5 weeks. If your date needs a bigger team, I say that too.
The proof
99–100 · LCP 0.8–2.0s
TellersWindow fintech dashboard concept build: live prices with a seeded fallback so panels never render empty. Two named connections, not a before/after: 99 · LCP 2.0s on Lighthouse's 150ms RTT mobile preset, 100 · LCP 0.8s on this machine's measured 16ms line.

Small Batch Brine storefront, shipped in 7 days: WhatsApp ordering straight to the owner, nothing in between. Later re-runs: 99 · LCP 2.0s, and 100 · LCP 0.7s on the measured line.
