Why local
The guide you can meet
Cheaper than an agency, more dependable than a freelancer, and in your time zone.
| Option | Typical cost | Where it falls short |
|---|---|---|
| Freelancers | Low | Disappear mid-project; one person, little process |
| Offshore agencies | Low to mid | Time zones, communication gaps, hard to hold accountable |
| Big agencies | $100k+ projects | Won't take small projects |
| Hiring in-house | $100k+ a year | Slow to hire; one person can't cover every skill |
| StingCode | Fixed price, sized to you | Local, accountable, fast first results, scales with you |
