The problem
You're the product. Every hour on ops is an hour you're not building.
Most expert-led founders hit the same wall.
01
A US EA costs $80K and takes 90 days to hire.
Ours costs a fraction and starts in 30 days.
02
Most VAs can't anticipate, only execute.
And AI now does most of what they do, faster.
03
Generic recruiters send the same LinkedIn profiles.
The ones your competitors are already calling.
What makes us different
Built at the intersection of three things no one else combines.
1
South African talent.
Lower cost than a US hire. Better cultural and accent fit than other offshore markets. English-first, Western business norms.
2
Operations roles only.
EAs, PMs, CSMs, and Ops Managers. Senior roles where the person owns outcomes, not just tasks, so the founder gets a real teammate.
3
Expert-led businesses.
Marketing agencies, consultants, fractional executives, and coaches. The founder is the product. We free them to be it.
Most offshore recruiters pick one. We specialize in all three. That's the difference.

30 minutes
02
Vetted shortlist

03
Hire with confidence
You interview, we coordinate. If the placement doesn't work in the first 90 days, we replace them for free.
90-day guarantee
Every hire we place is fluent in AI.
A standard EA who knows Google Workspace is a commodity. The people we place know Claude, ChatGPT, Zapier, Notion automations, and custom GPTs. They don't just execute, they leverage.
The hire working alongside you does the work of two or three traditional hires. They draft client emails in your voice. They clean your CRM with an automation. They build dashboards instead of asking for them.
✦
Inbox triage, handled before you sit down
Drafts replies in your voice, flags what needs your eyes.
✦
Meeting prep, ready before you sit down
Briefing docs and agendas pulled together from past calls and project notes.
✦
Updates and recaps without the ask
Weekly summaries, client check-ins, and status notes drafted before you remember to ask for them.

CSM
Customer Success Manager
Builds the relationship after the sale. Drives renewals, handles hard conversations, protects revenue.
Ops
Operations Manager
Designs the systems the business runs on. Documents process, owns tools, scales what works.

Questions founders ask us first.
What if the placement doesn't work out?
+
Every placement comes with a free replacement guarantee for the first 90 days. We restart the search at no additional cost.
How do time zones actually work?
+
South African working hours overlap with US East Coast mornings and US Pacific afternoons. Most operators settle into a schedule giving you 4 to 6 hours of real-time overlap.
What does a hire actually cost month to month?
+
Operator salaries typically range from $1,800 to $4,500 per month depending on the role and seniority. You pay the operator directly. We're not their employer.
Why don't you place VAs?
+
Because AI does most VA work now, faster and cheaper. We focus on roles where human judgment still wins.
Do I have to interview multiple candidates?
+
You get a shortlist of 3 to 5. Most clients interview 2 to 3 and hire. The whole process from intake to signed offer is usually under 21 days.
