Process
Plaky for priorities. GitHub for delivery.
1
Subscribe or call
Start through Stripe when ready, or book a short fit call before choosing a plan.
2
Open the queue
A Plaky board holds requests, Loom videos, links, acceptance notes, and priority order.
3
Ship in PRs
Repository work moves through branches, pull requests, comments, and tests when the project supports them.
4
Stay aligned
Updates and planning follow your plan cadence, covering completed work, blockers, and the next priority.
AI-assisted, senior-owned
AI can generate code. Dev Pal owns the outcome.
AI is useful for exploration, scaffolding, tests, and repetitive changes. The valuable part is still context, judgment, debugging, security, data correctness, and production stability.
AI helps with
Drafting, boilerplate, code search, alternatives, and test ideas.
A developer handles
Architecture, tradeoffs, integration details, edge cases, rollout, and client communication.

FAQ
A few details before we start.
How do we manage requests?
The default setup is Plaky for the queue and GitHub for code delivery. Requests can include written notes, screenshots, documents, links, or Loom-style videos.
How fast will I receive work?
Most small, clearly scoped requests receive a deliverable or meaningful progress update within 2–3 business days. Maintain requests usually follow a 3–5 business day cycle. Larger work is divided into reviewable milestones rather than promised as a single quick delivery.
What does one request at a time mean?
One request is actively being implemented while the rest remain ordered in Plaky. Large features are broken into smaller, testable milestones so you can review progress and change priorities between deliveries.
How do urgent queue switches work?
An urgent request temporarily moves to the front of your queue. It is acknowledged and prioritized within four business hours. Resolution time still depends on scope, system access, and third-party dependencies; this is not 24/7 support or a same-day fix guarantee.
What are Dev Pal's business hours?
Service targets use regular Toronto/Eastern Time business days. Slack provides direct but asynchronous access, so it does not imply instant or after-hours availability.
What can affect delivery timing?
Delivery timing may move when repository access, credentials, requirements, test data, approvals, or client feedback are delayed. Third-party outages and undocumented legacy behavior can also require additional investigation.
What stacks can Dev Pal work with?
The strongest depth is PHP/Laravel, C#/.NET, ASP.NET, JavaScript, jQuery, HTML/CSS, MySQL, and API-driven systems. Other stacks can be reviewed case by case.
Is AI used?
Yes, when it helps speed up exploration, tests, scaffolding, and repetitive changes. Final architecture, review, debugging, and production decisions stay human-owned.
Can I pause or cancel?
Yes. Stripe handles subscription billing, card updates, invoices, and cancellation through its hosted customer portal. Final pause timing, refunds, and unused service terms are governed by the service agreement presented before purchase.
What if I only have one request?
That is fine. Use the smaller plan for scoped work, or book a call if you are unsure which plan fits.
