COPO Model — You Own It, We Operate It.
The premier company owned partner operated GCC setup.
As a leading co-pilot outsourcing model IT company, we provide the COPO model which gives you full IP control and entity ownership while we handle recruitment, HR, payroll, and daily operations. It is the ultimate collaborative outsourcing development services approach without vendor lock-in.
Full ownership. Zero operational overhead with COPO model software development services.
Your Entity, Our Operations
The team sits under your company owned partner operated GCC. Engineers are contracted to you — not to us. We handle HR, payroll, retention, compliance, and infrastructure management.
Complete IP Protection
All code, designs, documentation, and data belong to your entity from day one. No transfer process needed — ownership never leaves your organization.
Faster Than a GCC
Skip the 6-month entity setup. Use our existing operational infrastructure and be productive in 2–4 weeks instead of months.
Scale Without Admin Burden
Add engineers without building an HR department. We handle people operations — from sourcing to payroll to retention — so you focus on product.
Define. Hire. Onboard. Operate. That's it.
The COPO model eliminates the complexity of setting up offshore operations. You focus on product — we handle the rest.
Role specifications, tech stack requirements, team structure, and entity setup under your company.
We source candidates from our 400+ engineer network, vet them technically, and present shortlists. You interview and approve.
Engineers join your entity with employment contracts under your company. We set up infrastructure, tools, and processes.
We manage HR, payroll, retention, compliance, and infrastructure. You manage product direction and engineering priorities.
