by the structure.
Your code lives in your repository from day one. We work in a repo you own from the first commit. Walk away at any point — mid-sprint, mid-audit, whenever — and you keep everything that exists. There is no handover moment because there is nothing to hand over.
Fixed prices, quoted before work starts. The audit has a published price. Sprints are quoted from the audit, in writing, before they begin. If scope has to change, we tell you before it costs you anything — never after.
You pay when you approve the result. Sprints are billed after delivery, when you have reviewed the work and are happy with it. Prefer milestone payments or escrow? Both fine. The default is simply: no payment until you approve.
A real person answers, fast. You work directly with the senior engineer on your project — same person from audit to launch. Questions get answers within working hours, not through a ticket queue.
A 30-day warranty on every sprint. If something we shipped breaks within 30 days, we fix it at no charge. After that, maintenance plans are available — but never required.
A named engineer,
not a brand wall.
Anju Kumari — founding engineer — leads every engagement and signs every agreement. 12+ years building production software at Fortune 500 companies, on products used by millions. The person you talk to on the first call is the person who reads your code. The Yellow Labs · Based in India. Reach us any time at hello@theyellowlabs.com.
Before you send
us anything.
Who am I actually contracting with?
You get a written agreement before any paid work starts, signed by the founding engineer who leads your project. It covers scope, price, payment terms, IP assignment (everything we write is yours), and confidentiality for your code and data.
What do you need from me to start?
For an audit: read access to your repository (GitHub, GitLab, or an export) or a live URL, plus 15 minutes on what the product is supposed to do. That is genuinely all. You do not need to prepare documentation your AI never wrote.
Is my code and idea safe with you?
Yes — and not just as a promise. We sign an NDA before you share anything if you want one, access is read-only until you hire us to change things, and the audit report is confidential to you. We never reuse, publish, or train anything on client code.
What if I stop mid-engagement?
You owe nothing for work not yet started, and everything already delivered is in your repository. The audit report, the roadmap, the code — all of it is yours to take to any other developer. We think you will stay because the work is good, not because leaving is hard.
Ready when you are — send your repo or live URL and we'll reply within 24 hours with a straight answer on whether the audit fits.
