The Philippines, a former US colony where English is widely spoken, has long adopted Western culture into its identity. Our studio is based in Cebu, an island home to over 60 colleges and universities modeled after the American education system. This educational landscape contributes to our competitiveness and understanding of Western standards. This cultural affinity, combined with a highly skilled workforce and affordable rates, makes the Philippines an ideal outsourcing destination.

We offer significant cost savings. You'll pay up to 55-65% less compared to average US cost. Additionally, our high employee retention rate (96%) means you will save time on finding and recruiting qualified talent.

There are two main ways we can work with you: Dedicated Staffing and Retainers. Dedicated Staffing helps you scale your business with a team solely focused on you. Consider them an extension of your in-house team. We’ve had clients enjoy success with their dedicated teams for years. For short- to mid-term projects, our Retainer option is ideal. We are also happy to discuss any one-offs or per project needs.

Our state-of-the-art studio is located in Cebu, Philippines. By housing our entire team under one roof, we ensure efficient communication and faster turnaround times for all your projects. In addition, our Utah-based founder and CEO drives our operations and fosters strong US client relationships.

While we work in PHT, we tailor overlapping hours to accommodate your schedule. We have a significant overlap of 2-3 hours daily.
