Outsourced Programmers service

App support and bug triage

Developer-backed support for SaaS and web teams that need bugs sorted, repro steps written, and fixes routed to the right owner.

Support tickets reach engineering without screenshots, repro steps, browser details, or clear severity. Programmers waste time rebuilding context.

Buyer checks

Ask these before a programmer touches the repo.

Is this customer support or programming work?

It sits between both. The staff member helps turn messy customer reports into useful engineering tickets.

Should they reply directly to customers?

Only after you approve the reply rules. Sensitive bugs, outages, refunds, and security issues should stay with your team.
