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.

Best for

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

Dedicated engineers who work on your product every day and own the technical execution.

Product leadership

A product lead who translates your priorities into a clear plan and ensures work stays aligned with your goals.​

Project management

Responsible for planning, coordination and follow up, keeping the team focused and maintaining a reliable delivery rhythm.​

Quality assurance​

Embedded QA support that safeguards product stability, tests releases and maintains quality standards.​

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

✅ Vision and product direction

✅ Strategic priorities

✅ Business goals and roadmap

The Wise Minds Unit

✅ Sprint planning and execution

✅ Daily delivery and coordination

✅ Quality control and testing

✅ Progress reporting

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.

What customers say

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.”

Yes. DevOps support is included in the team setup.

We cover:

  • Deployment
  • Environment setup
  • CI/CD
  • Technical reliability
