Hiring full-time takes time, budget and long-term commitment. With us, you get a team ready to start right away, with no hiring and no onboarding.
Working with multiple contractors usually means more calls, and more headaches. At hydro, you get one integrated team with a dedicated client success manager. We handle everything from strategy to execution, saving you time and keeping the project on track.
Depends on what you need. Our monthly plan gives you access to 1-2 designers, developers + CSM. Bigger projects = double the firepower.
Both. The unlimited subscription runs month to month and brand and website projects are quoted on scope, split over three milestones: 50% deposit, 25% on sign-off, 25% before go-live. Full pricing is on the pricing page.

We work through Trello and Slack, giving you quick updates and tight feedback loops. No long meetings. Just consistent progress. We can also plug into the apps and workflows you already run, so nothing changes for your team.
You can pause or cancel anytime. Just give us a heads-up beforehand so we can update our workflow.
