Pangea.ai

Companies that need an outside development team fast are the ones Pangea.ai is built for. Pangea.ai is a business research and hiring marketplace that matches businesses with vetted software development agencies and tech talent.

It says it draws on the top 7% of dev shops, and it quotes a 98% matching accuracy and a hiring process that can finish within 72 hours.

You can choose how to work with an agency: team augmentation, a fully managed team, or build-operate-transfer (BOT).

Fractional CTO and CPO leadership is also available if you lack technical management in-house.

Due diligence and client reviews are part of the process, which lowers the risk of picking a studio blind.

The catch is focus.

Pangea.ai centers on agencies, so solo freelancers are thin on the ground.

Very small projects or highly specialized needs may not fit well.

The strict top 7% filter also means some capable but lesser-known agencies will not appear.
