AI-Assisted Development

Development powered by AI tools

LEGKO COMPANY is an active integrator and user of AI tools in digital product development. We use AI not as a separate service or marketing term, but as a working tool at every stage of a project:

requirements analysisplanningprototypingwriting and reviewing codetestingdocumentationbug huntingpreparing tech solutionsroutine automation

This lets the team handle routine and technical tasks faster, while keeping manual control over architecture, security and quality.

Up to 3× faster

We automate routine operations, research, documentation and first-pass code review.

Higher stability

AI is an extra layer of verification, but a specialist always makes the final call.

More output per hour

You pay for actual work done, not for time spent on manual, repetitive operations.

Team

Not a single developer — a ready team

You don't hire one specialist or assemble a team yourself. LEGKO COMPANY brings in the roles a task needs and manages their work together.

Not every role is engaged at once. The team's makeup changes depending on the current stage, task and agreed budget.

When it fits

From a few hours to full-scale product development

A small task

You need to fix a bug, update a server, set up an integration, or rework a single screen.

Ongoing development

New features, changes, integrations and technical tasks come up every month.

A large-scale product

You need a full product team for hundreds or thousands of hours a month.

Unpredictable scope

It's impossible to lock in all requirements and cost of the project upfront.

Supporting an existing system

You need to plug into code, infrastructure and processes that already work.

Team augmentation

You don't have enough expertise or hands to speed up current processes, and you need to quickly connect experienced specialists.

Payment model

You pay only for the work actually done

There's no minimum number of hours. A project can need anywhere from a couple of hours for a targeted fix to thousands of hours for large-scale development — team size and load are set individually.

20–40 hours

Collaboration formats

Three formats — for different urgency and scope

01

Flexible Queue

from $18/hour

For small, non-urgent tasks: fixes, tweaks, tech support, server setup, content updates, small integrations.

Terms

  • No minimum hours package
  • Tasks handled in the general queue
  • Priority isn't reserved
  • Reporting based on work actually done

Response speed: starts as the team frees up, timing confirmed after a load assessment.

02

Priority Team

from $22–28/hour

For ongoing development and tasks with an expected response time: product growth, new features, integrations, releases, backlog.

Terms

  • Tasks planned in sprints
  • An agreed estimated scope
  • Higher priority, regular contact
  • Weekly / monthly report

Response speed: tasks are planned ahead, deadlines are fixed, the team reserves part of its capacity.

03

Dedicated Product Team

from $28–40/hour

For active development and large-scale products: SaaS, mobile apps, B2B platforms, large internal systems.

Terms

  • A dedicated or priority team
  • PM, planning, architecture control
  • Regular releases, QA and DevOps
  • Load of up to 1000+ hours a month

Response speed: the team is dedicated to the product, maximum priority, a continuous backlog.

No minimum hours doesn't mean work starts instantly. Small tasks without a fixed priority are handled in queue order.

The final rate depends on team composition, task complexity, urgency, specialist seniority and workload.

A clear process from task to report

01. We receive the task

The client shares a description, materials and the expected outcome.

02. We estimate it

We define the roles needed, estimated hours, priority, risks and start date.

03. We agree on a format

General queue, priority work, or a dedicated team is selected.

04. We do the work

The team works through the agreed backlog and logs time.

05. We hand over the result

Completed tasks, links, code, materials, comments, status.

06. We put together a report

Per task, weekly, or monthly — depending on the format.

Reporting

Transparent tracking of every task and every hour

Time tracking runs in familiar tools — yours or ours.

ClockifyJiraYouGileLinearNotionClient's system
  • A list of completed tasks with a description of the result

  • The specialist or role, and actual time spent

  • Links to commits / pull requests, current status

  • Total hours and the resulting cost

  • Recommendations for the next stage

The client can request an interim report at any time, if the chosen collaboration format allows it.

Payment scheme

Postpaid at the end of the month

Holidays and non-working days aren't counted when calculating the payment deadline. For a small one-off task, an invoice can be issued right after the work is done.

For new clients, large volumes, or reserving a dedicated team, a prepayment or a security deposit may apply.

1

The team completes tasks over the course of a calendar month.

2

In the first business days of the following month, the client receives a report and an invoice.

3

Payment is made by the 10th of the following month.

Budget control

We don't exceed the agreed limit without confirmation

Before starting, you can set

  • An hours limit
  • A budget limit
  • Task priority
  • A maximum monthly workload

As the limit approaches, the team

  • Notifies the client
  • Shows the current result
  • Offers options for continuing
  • Doesn't go over the limit without approval

AI effectiveness

You pay for the result, not manual routine

AI tools help the team handle repetitive and technical operations faster:

  • A specialist makes architectural decisions

  • Code goes through manual review

  • AI doesn't get unchecked access to client data

  • Confidential materials follow agreed rules

Cases

Reviews

We launched OneKi as a full-scale purchasing service, so it was important to build not just a visual interface but a complete and well-structured product. The team deeply understood the project, helped design the catalog structure, and implemented user flows for both individuals and businesses. Special attention was given to details and SEO architecture from the very beginning, which is important for further growth. Communication throughout the project was smooth, and all tasks were handled efficiently. As a result, we received a clear, functional, and scalable product
