FAQ

Common questions

What hours do you work?

We're in the Philippines (GMT+8), which is 2–5 hours behind Australia and New Zealand. We're available during most of your business day.

How do payments work?

We invoice in AUD or USD and accept bank transfer via Wise, PayPal or Payoneer. One-off projects are 50% upfront and 50% on delivery. Retainers are billed monthly in advance.

Can we start small?

Yes. Most clients start with a QA Audit or a VA Starter plan, then scale up once they've seen how we work.

Absolutely. We're happy to sign your NDA before seeing any code or data.

What kind of data do you scrape?

Only publicly available data, collected in line with the source website's terms and applicable privacy laws.
