Do I need to be tech savvy?

Not at all. We handle all setup, testing, and integration. You just tell us where it hurts — we build the fix.

What happens after the Sprint ends?

You keep the automation. We provide handover documentation. You can choose to retain us for more builds, or run it solo. Optional support plans are available.
