Our risk-free trial is exactly that – risk free. We begin work with your selected developer (or team). You are not billed for the first two weeks upfront. During this period, you assess the developer’s output, communication, and integration with your team. If you’re happy (and 97% of clients are), we continue the engagement, and the 2 weeks are then included in the first invoice. If you’re not satisfied, you can cancel the engagement within the trial window without any cost. It’s our way of proving our value before you commit.

Yes, it’s very different. The vEmployee™ model is Clarion’s unique approach to remote hiring — one that gives you the control of an in-house hire with the support and scalability of a managed service. Your developer works full-time, exclusively on your projects, fully embedded into your team and processes. But what sets this apart is what happens behind the scenes: your vEmployee is supported by Clarion’s structured ecosystem — including supervisors, quality auditors, and a service delivery manager who ensures they’re productive, responsive, and continuously aligned with your goals. We monitor performance, track CSAT feedback, ensure 40 hours of valuable work every week, and step in proactively if anything needs course correction. You get the talent and control, we handle the infrastructure, HR, payroll, and performance management — all optimized to deliver long-term success.

You can absolutely start with just one developer. We cater to teams of any size – from a single specialist to an entire dedicated development team. Some of our clients begin with one or two developers and later scale to a larger team as their needs grow. There is no minimum commitment; we work with startups, small businesses, and enterprise clients alike.

Our model is built for flexibility. If you need to scale up, simply let your Account Manager know the skills or experience level you want to add, and we will present you with vetted candidates (often within days, since we maintain a talent pipeline). You can interview them and add them to your team quickly. If you ever wish to scale down the team or pause the service, we accommodate that too with prior notice – you won’t be stuck with unused resources. In the rare case you want to replace a developer (perhaps skill mismatch or changed project needs), we can smoothly transition someone new into the role, usually overlapping for knowledge transfer. Your continuity is our priority.

Time zones are never a problem. Our developers work from offices that operate on flexible shifts, so we always ensure a few hours of overlap with your working hours, no matter where you’re located. Whether you’re in the U.S., Europe, or the Middle East, we align schedules to make real-time collaboration smooth and easy. Beyond the regular overlap, our teams are accommodative and responsive — so when a deadline is tight or something urgent comes up, we adjust. You’ll find our developers committed, available, and easy to work with — just like having someone on your own team.

Yes. Strong communication is a must for all our hires. Beyond technical skills, we evaluate each developer’s proficiency in English (both written and spoken) and their ability to proactively communicate. In fact, we often hear feedback that our developers function as effectively as onshore team members when it comes to collaborating and understanding requirements. They’ll ask clarifying questions, report progress, and raise concerns or suggestions in a timely manner. We encourage daily touchpoints (stand-ups or brief syncs) to ensure alignment. You won’t have to worry about things “getting lost in translation” – our developers are professionals who have worked with international clients and understand Western work culture and business etiquette.

We take IP protection very seriously. Clarion signs a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) with you before project discussions if required. Additionally, every Clarion developer or employee is bound by NDAs and confidentiality clauses as part of their employment. All code written for you belongs to you – we acknowledge that in our contract. We use secure networks and can set up VPNs or isolated development environments as needed. Our infrastructure is protected by enterprise-grade security measures. In summary, your sensitive information and proprietary code are safe with us. Many clients also include specific IP ownership clauses which we readily comply with. We’re happy to align with any specific security protocols you have.

We handle that seamlessly. For clients in regulated industries like healthcare, banking, and insurance—where laws require that data remain within the country—we set up secure VPN access points inside the required geography, allowing our developers to connect without transferring any data across borders. This ensures full compliance with regulations like HIPAA, GDPR, and local data protection laws. We’ve successfully implemented these setups for clients in the U.S., Saudi Arabia, and other regions with strict data mandates. If needed, we can also work with anonymized or masked data, or even help hire local resources to handle sensitive information. Whatever the requirement, we ensure your data stays protected, compliant, and exactly where it needs to be.

Our pricing is simple and transparent: you pay a fixed weekly fee per developer, based on their skill set and experience. There are no project-based charges, hidden fees, or unexpected add-ons. Since we operate from India, you benefit from offshore pricing without compromising on quality. Invoices are raised weekly, and we’re flexible with payment terms to match your convenience. No recruitment fees, no surprises—just straightforward, predictable billing.
