Methodology
- Current monthly = engineers × hourly rate × weekly hours × 4.33 weeks/month.
- Effective engineer-equivalents = engineers × current velocity multiplier (selected).
- Devlyn pod sized to match your effective engineer count using practice-standard 4× compounding velocity, retainer estimated at $2,500/month per single engineer scaling to ~$13,500/month for a 4-engineer pod with shared DevOps and PM.
- Coordination cost = your weekly hours × CXO effective rate × 4.33 weeks/month.
- 12-month savings = (current monthly − Devlyn monthly + coordination delta) × 12.
- The numbers are estimates. Real engagements get a custom proposal on the discovery call.
