Introduce a client, take 5%
If you introduce someone who becomes a client, we pay you 5% of what they spend with us on their first project. One email is enough. There is no form to fill in, no tracking link, and nothing for you to chase afterwards.

What that's worth
It's a straight percentage of the project, so it scales with the work. Most engagements are larger than an audit.

Who to introduce
Asking someone whether they know anyone who needs a developer rarely works — it's too broad to answer. These are narrower. Read them as prompts and see whether a specific person comes to mind.
A Japanese-only site selling to foreigners
The product already appeals to visitors and residents from overseas, but the website exists only in Japanese.
A foreign company that needs something built or run in Japan
Local engineering, a Japanese-language launch, or someone on the ground in the same timezone as their partners and vendors.
An AI prototype that has to become a real product
A team got something working with an LLM, and now it needs to be secure, fast, and able to survive real users.
A founder with no one to ask about architecture
No CTO, a technical decision worth six figures, and a vendor quote nobody in the company can evaluate.
A cloud bill nobody can explain
Infrastructure spend growing faster than usage, and no one with the time to find out why.
A team that ships slower every month
A codebase that used to be quick to change and now isn't, with releases that have started to hurt.
How it works
01
Send the intro
Email us both, or just send the name and what you know. A line about why you thought of them is plenty.
02
We take it from there
We qualify, scope, and sell. You are never on the hook for follow-up or for how it goes.
03
They sign
We tell you as soon as the project is agreed, along with its value and what your fee will be.
04
You get paid
5% by bank transfer within 30 days of their first invoice clearing. Send us an invoice, or we'll prepare the paperwork.
The fine print
The fee applies to companies we aren't already in conversation with. If we are, we'll tell you at the point of introduction rather than after the fact.
5% is calculated on the fees the client actually pays us for their first project, excluding consumption tax and any pass-through costs.
Paid by bank transfer in USD or JPY within 30 days of the client's first invoice clearing.
If you work for the client, or a fee would put you in an awkward position with your employer, say so — we'll thank you a different way.
We only take on work we can do well. If someone else is a better fit for your contact, we'll say so.
Someone come to mind?
Send us their name and a line about why you thought of them. We'll take it from there, and we'll tell you what happened either way.
