Hire a full-stack developer who builds with AI coding tools, dedicated to your business

Retire the spreadsheet. Ship the app your team needs.

Neon Link gives a US business one dedicated, full-time full-stack developer who works remotely from the Philippines or India, with real overlap with your US business hours, building and running internal tools, client portals and small apps. They build in React or Next.js on Supabase or Postgres with AI coding agents such as Claude Code or Cursor, read and test every change before it ships, and set up logins and row level security so each user sees only their own records, with a person on your side approving what your customers see. It is quoted per engagement after a short call, with no setup fee, month to month.

What your Linker handles

  • Turn the spreadsheet your team runs on into a working app: a Postgres schema, forms, views and roles
  • Build a client portal where each customer logs in and sees only their own records
  • Build internal tools in React or Next.js on Supabase or Postgres, using AI coding agents such as Claude Code or Cursor to move fast
  • Read, test and understand every change the agent writes before it ships, and keep the code clean enough for the next developer
  • Set up logins and row level security, then try to break them before a client does
  • Connect the app to your other tools through APIs, webhooks and serverless functions
  • Move your data over from the old spreadsheet cleanly
  • Ship to production with secrets kept out of the code and backups on, then hand over a short guide and a walkthrough video
  • Maintain and improve the app as your business changes
Your tools

We screen for React or Next.js with TypeScript, Postgres in Supabase or on its own, authentication and row level security, and daily use of AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf or GitHub Copilot. Stripe, file uploads, e-signature and deploying on Vercel, Netlify or Cloudflare are a plus. If a finalist has not used yours, you'll know before they start.

How the work is measured

What your Linker is measured on. The targets are set with you in the first week and written into your statement of work.

  • Delivery against the scope and dates set with you
  • Permissions that hold when someone tries to open a record that is not theirs
  • Daily use of the app by your team, and the old spreadsheet retired with the data moved over cleanly

Who we put on it

  • Signs a confidentiality agreement and passes a background check
  • Works with real overlap on your US business hours from a quiet, private workspace
  • Wired internet with a backup connection and a plan for power outages
  • Clear written and spoken English your customers and partners can follow

How it starts

  1. Step 1Send us your job ad, or tell us the work on a 15 or 30 minute call with Dan.
  2. Step 2Get a written quote for the role, held for 30 days.
  3. Step 3We recruit and screen for your work and your tools, and you interview the finalist before they start.
  4. Step 4Your Linker works on your systems on your hours. A Neon Link manager runs the account and answers when you need them.
  5. Step 5If the fit is wrong in the first 60 days, we swap them at no cost.

A good fit, and not a fit

  • Businesses running on a spreadsheet nobody trusts and tools that don't talk to each other
  • Owners who want a client portal for their customers without a large agency build
  • Teams that want one developer who ships fast with AI tools and owns what goes live
Not a fit
  • Native iOS or Android apps. Your Linker builds web apps that run in a browser
  • Code nobody reviews. Every AI-written change is read and tested before it ships
  • Brand design or a marketing website. Your Linker builds simple, clean interfaces for working apps
  • A team or round-the-clock support. Your Linker is one person working with overlap on your US business hours

Questions owners ask

How much does it cost to hire a full-stack developer through Neon Link?

It is quoted per engagement, because the scope and the seniority you need change the person we recruit. You get a written quote after a short call, held for 30 days, with no setup fee and month to month terms. For comparison, a US web developer costs about $11,050 a month fully loaded, using the BLS median wage plus employer costs.

Can I run my business on an app built with AI coding tools?

You can when a developer owns it. Your developer uses Claude Code or Cursor for much of the typing, then reads, tests and understands every change before it ships. Logins and row level security are set up so each user sees only their own records, and the developer tries to break them before your customers can. Secrets stay out of the code and backups are on.

Why build on Supabase?

Supabase is Postgres with logins, row level security, file storage and serverless functions built in, which covers most of what an internal tool or client portal needs without stitching services together. If you already run plain Postgres, your developer works in that instead. Either way your data sits in a standard Postgres database in your own account.

What can a client portal include?

Whatever your customers need to see and do: log in, view their own records, upload files and, if you want them, pay or sign. Stripe payments, file uploads and e-signature are screened as a plus, so tell us at the start if your portal needs them.

How is this different from hiring a virtual assistant?

You get one dedicated person who works only for your business, on your hours, inside your software, and a Neon Link manager runs the account: pay, equipment, replacement if it comes to that, and a phone that gets answered. You never run offshore payroll or manage a freelancer alone. It is not a shared pool, a ticket queue or a 24/7 answering line.

How fast can someone start?

We start recruiting when you say go. You interview the finalist before anyone starts, and the start date is set with you once you pick the person. We would rather take the time to find the right fit than hand you whoever is free.

What if the person is not the right fit?

If the fit is wrong in the first 60 days, we swap them at no cost. After that, if they leave, we recruit the replacement at no charge and manage the handover. Training on your process runs at the normal monthly rate.

Do we have to sign a long contract?

No. Month to month is available on every plan. The 6-month plan trades a longer commitment for a lower monthly rate. A written quote at the published rate is held for 30 days.
