Product team as a service
For scale ups that are ready to move faster
Complete product units for scale ups
A Wise Minds product unit is a ready to operate team that strengthens your product delivery without adding operational complexity.
You get a stable group of developers, product leadership, delivery guidance and quality assurance that integrates with your organisation and delivers consistent progress from the first cycle onward.
This is not staff augmentation and not a project.
Series A-B scaleups under roadmap pressure
Our product units are designed to plug into an existing organisation with minimal disruption.
If you already have a development team, we help restructure the product so both teams can collaborate and move faster.
Team composition
The team consists of all players necessary to build a great tech product.
To save costs for the small units we deliver, we provide time shares for positions like project management and quality assurance.
Developers
Product leadership
Project management
Quality assurance
As your needs grow, the unit scales by adding developer capacity while product leadership, delivery guidance and QA support increase proportionally. This keeps the unit stable and prevents coordination issues as scope expands.
The collaboration
The Wise MInds Unit is fully responsible for the (sub) product it works on, while your leadership stays in control of the subjects that matter most.
Your Leadership
The Wise Minds Unit
Integrated in your organisation
Our product unit integrates into your organisation, collaborating with your internal teams as one delivery organisation.
You retain ownership of direction: vision, product strategy, priorities and business outcomes.
We take ownership of the delivery engine: planning, coordination, implementation, testing and reporting.
Through clear routines, shared tooling and transparent communication, you always know what is happening, what is next and where risks are.
The result is stable execution with less overhead, while leadership focus stays on the decisions that matter.
Starting at $6k per month
Pricing ranges from $6k–$32k per month, based on unit size.
Every setup includes a complete product team with all roles listed above. In smaller setups, some roles are dedicated part-time, and become more allocated as you scale.
Most Series A–B teams choose $12k–$24k per month.
Your team ready within 2 weeks
On average, we compile a team within two weeks. Part of the team comes from our existing pre-trained members and another part will be hired to fit the specific context of your business.
Frequently asked questions
What if we already have an internal team?
That works too!
Then we define clear ownership boundaries.
We can:
- Take ownership of a subproduct
- Own a specific module
- Accelerate delivery on a new product line
We integrate into your workflow without disrupting your structure.
Are you an outsourcing agency?
No.
Outsourcing usually means “here are developers, manage them.”
We operate differently. Once we start working together, the team becomes part of your startup or company.
It is your product. Your roadmap. Your priorities.
We are simply the structured tech engine behind it.
What if we already have a CTO?
We collaborate with CTOs regularly.
As startups grow, the CTO role shifts from writing code to:
- Budgeting
- Long-term architecture
- Team structure
- Vision alignment
We provide complementary skills that strengthen the CTO, not replace him or her.
How do we get started?
We begin with a discovery conversation.
Then the next step is usually:
- A working session with your CTO or technical decision maker
- Clarifying product vision
- Understanding current maturity
- Identifying the biggest blockers
Only after that do we propose a team structure and engagement model.
We never jump into execution without alignment.
How do you make sure the team is the right fit?
Recruitment is our core expertise.
The biggest challenge in software development is not coding. It is assembling the right people.
We:
- Match the team to your CTO’s strengths
- Add complementary skills
- Calibrate early
- Adjust when needed
The configuration phase at the beginning is critical. We invest time there to prevent long-term friction
How do you prevent loss of control?
This is one of the biggest fears we hear.
You remain in control because:
- We work in two-week sprints
- Scope is aligned weekly or bi-weekly
- You can join internal sprint discussions
- Progress is visible in tools like Jira
- Decisions are documented
We operate transparently. There is no “black box development.”
Do you handle DevOps and infrastructure?
Yes. DevOps support is included in the team setup.
We cover:
- Deployment
- Environment setup
- CI/CD
- Technical reliability
