// FAQ
Common questions.
Working with us
What types of projects do you take on? ▾
We specialise in two areas: AI product development (LLM apps, agents, RAG systems, ML pipelines) and cybersecurity tooling (threat detection, SIEM dashboards, auth systems, compliance tools). We don't take on general-purpose web or mobile projects outside these verticals.
How long does a typical project take? ▾
Our average time from kickoff to first launch is 6 weeks for an MVP. More complex products take 10–16 weeks. We work in sprints with weekly demos so you're always in the loop.
Do you sign NDAs? ▾
Yes, always. We sign mutual NDAs before any detailed project discussions.
Do you work with startups outside Nigeria? ▾
Yes. We work with founders globally — primarily in Europe, North America, and across Africa. We're fully remote and async-friendly across time zones.
How do I get started? ▾
Fill in the project enquiry form at tinlance.com/contact.php. Tell us what you're building, your budget range, and timeline. We respond to every genuine enquiry within 24 hours.
Can you join our existing team? ▾
Yes — our Technical Co-Building service is designed exactly for this. We embed senior engineers into your team on a monthly retainer basis.
Pricing
What does it cost? ▾
Fixed-scope projects typically range from $10K to $80K depending on complexity. Monthly retainers start from $5K/month. For early-stage startups we also offer equity + cash arrangements on a case-by-case basis.

What is ThreatFade? ▾
