For specialists
Work worth doing, on your own terms.
colayer works with independent professionals across software, data, product and AI. You decide which projects you take on, what you charge, and how you do the work.
You choose the work
Projects are offered, never assigned. You see the scope, the context and the client before you decide.
You set your rate
You quote your own fee. There is no rate card you have to fit into.
You work on your own responsibility
Engagements are agreed as a defined scope of work. How you organise the work and which methods you use is your call.
A lean model
The network fee is a fraction of what a traditional agency takes, which is why rates hold up.
