Virtual Assistants for Startups Who Are More Than Just Task-takers.

Hiring directly is awesome if you're confident in your process! But let's be real – hiring remote talent can be really time-consuming and draining. And for busy founders and entrepreneurs, time and energy are the most precious resources.

That's where we come in. We'll not only make the whole process smoother, but we'll also help you avoid the usual headaches. Our goal? To ensure your new team member is the perfect match for your needs, so you can focus on growing your business.

1. Talent Level

We're not about cutting corners or sacrificing our amazing virtual assistants in the Philippines just to make a profit. Because of this, we've become the go-to destination for the best talent – even those moving on from other agencies.

2. Price

Most agencies with comparable talent charge around $3,000/month. Only $700–$800 of that goes to the team member.

Not only do we charge less but we also pay our Assistants around 1.5 to 2x more than other agencies. Retention comes from making sure that our Assistants are paid well and supported well so they can focus on client impact.

3. People over Process

Kevin, our founder, knows firsthand how challenging it can be to hire the right overseas talent while still managing the demands of a startup. When you work with us, you'll get personalized support from a tight-knit team that prioritizes your success, adapting our processes to fit your specific needs.

You pay your assistant directly using your own systems at a rate based on their role and experience tier. Your assistant's rate is agreed upon before placement, so there are no surprises. We also offer a Managed Payments add-on ($150/mo) if you'd prefer ATO to handle payroll on your behalf. Interested? Feel free to reach out.

Before placement

• 5-session AI foundations program
• Covers the AI landscape, prompting skills, and tool fluency
• Hands-on application to real work tasks

After placement

• Ongoing coaching during check-ins
• Group learning sessions
• New tools and workflows as they emerge

Our recruiting is optimized to screen for people who regularly operate at a Level 4 on our Contributor Growth Curve.

• Deep screening for soft skills like systems-thinking, high agency, and proactivity
• Paid trial task that helps us get a sense of how they perform in reality
• Alignment checks for time zone, work style, and English proficiency

Only the top ~1% of applicants make it through. We then tailor our shortlist based on what you care about most.

Your membership includes one free replacement within the year. If the fit isn't right, we'll rematch you, no questions asked. We want both sides set up for success, not locked into the wrong setup.

Yes. We run structured check-ins throughout the first three months: weekly during month one, then bi-weekly or monthly in months two and three depending on how the partnership is going. After that, we stay available on an as-needed basis. If things ever feel off track, we step in early.

Since your assistant is on your payroll, PTO and holidays are entirely your call to set with them directly. We provide a contract template you can use as a starting point. It covers the basics so you and your assistant can align on the terms that work for both of you.

All assistants sign an NDA before Day 1. We recommend starting with delegated or role-based access and expanding as trust develops. For teams that need more, we offer a Security Package add-on ($100/mo) that includes device management, VPN, virtual phone number, encryption, and remote wipe.
