Sydcup is a remote-first software company. Companies outsource their software to us, and we build AI employees that take real work off their teams.

AI employees that take real work

An AI employee is software with one job description. It answers the support inbox, qualifies leads or enters invoices the way your people do, in your helpdesk, CRM and accounting system. It acts alone where you've said it may, asks a person where it matters, and every action it takes is logged.

And AI inside your product

Assistants that answer from your own documents, search that understands the question, models that read documents or images. We run them in the cloud or on the device, as in our own app Cutline, which transcribes, finds filler words and follows the speaker on the iPhone. AI development

Outsource it to a senior team

From one engineer to a whole product team, remote-first with engineers across Europe. We hire, manage and replace; you set the priorities and see working software every week.

AI-assisted, person-reviewed. Our engineers work with AI coding agents every day, and a person reviews every change, so a small senior team ships what used to take a large one.

Talk about a team
  1. Dedicated team

    A team that works only on your product, from two engineers to a full squad with design and QA. You set the priorities; we handle hiring, holidays and replacements.

  2. Team extension

    Senior engineers who join your standups, use your tools and push to your repositories, for a quarter or for years.

  3. Project delivery

    A fixed scope and a fixed team, with a demo every week. At the end you get the code, the documentation and the keys.

  4. White-label for agencies

    Software and outsourcing companies send us the projects they can't staff. We deliver under your name, to your process.

Our engineers have worked in the teams behind

  • WebMD
  • Internet Brands
  • Volkswagen
  • Zalando
  • TTK Banka
  • and more

As outsourced engineers inside their product teams, some of it through partner consultancies. The names belong to their owners.

How we work

First, we listen.

Every project starts with understanding the problem deeply, before anyone writes code. Then we build in small steps.

Then you see it weekly.

Weekly sprints with a live demo. You see working software every seven days, not a final reveal after six months.

One team builds it.

Frontend, backend, mobile, cloud, DevOps, QA and design in one team. No juggling vendors, no lost handoffs.

You scale it.

Two more engineers next month, or a pause for a quarter: the engagement flexes with your roadmap, not against it.

GDPR-compliant by default: European data protection built into every project from day one, so your IP and your users' data stay under EU law.
