Wait, this isn't outsourcing, right?

Nope. Commodity software EORs treat your team like spreadsheet rows. We treat them like founding engineers.

Week 1

Top 1% Sourced & Vetted

We source from elite tech hubs in Bengaluru. Our Ex-Flipkart & Swiggy engineers conduct rigorous L1 technical screens so you don't have to.

Week 2

Final Founder Interviews

You only speak to the top 3 candidates. We rigorously filter for core engineering skill, direct communication, and a hardcore ownership mindset.

Week 3-4

Offer & 5-Day Onboarding

We legally employ them as the Employer of Record. Contracts, payroll, compliance, benefits, hardware logistics, and workspace — all handled in 5 days.

Ongoing

Retention & Partnership

We don't just process payroll. We handle performance management, retention, career growth, and on-ground feedback loops so your team stays with you.

Built by Founders,
for Founders.

We know what it's like to watch runway burn while trying to hire elite engineering talent. We also know that "global outsourcing" is usually a nightmare of bad communication, high churn, and zero product dedication.

And while massive software EORs can handle the legal paperwork, they don't do anything to actually retain your team on the ground.

That’s why we built Creww. We work with just 3–7 founders at a time. Not because we can’t do more — but because relationships break when stretched too thin. We are your high-touch, hyper-curated partner in Bengaluru.

Our Philosophy

  • Effective teams are built through camaraderie, not motivation talk.
  • Performance grows faster in enabling environments than in high-pressure ones.
  • Founders cannot outsource their relationship with their people.
  • Offshore teams deserve the exact same priority as onshore teams.
