PRODUCT ENGINEERING STUDIO · FIANARANTSOA, MADAGASCAR · SINCE 2020 IT IS 08:00:00 AT THE STUDIO CHOOSE YOUR DOOR
YOU ARE?
DOOR A — AGENCIES & STUDIOS

Your production team, without the payroll.

White label, NDA signed before the first technical conversation. Your clients see your name — ours appears nowhere in the code, the commits or your tools.

Enter on the agency side
DOOR B — STARTUPS & SMEs

Your product delivered, on the date in writing.

A written scope, a public rate, a date. Every day we are late refunds you 5% of the amount — it is in the contract, not in a sales pitch.

Enter on the product side
YOU ARE AN AGENCYA STARTUP OR AN SME

You invoice as before. You no longer carry the payroll.

A written scope, a public rate, a date we keep.

The service and the client price do not change — only your production cost does, in your favour, every month.

A price you can read before the call, and guarantees written into the contract — not argued.

WHAT WE HOLD OVER TIME
WORK

Our white-label references are under NDA. Here are the ones that are not.

The result, in figures. Not the promise.

We show no project built for an agency: that discretion is precisely what you are buying. The three engagements below are partners who agreed to be named on our site.

Three deliveries, three kinds of need: a mobile app published in 19 days, a platform whose features and automation we have run for several years, and a brand and website rebuild carried out in 5 days.

01

MGI (M Genesys Innov)

MULTI-TECH AGENCY · FRANCE · 6 YEARS+
THE PROBLEM
Repeat clients kept asking for technologies the agency did not cover in-house.
WHAT WE DID
A multi-skilled managed team — one developer per missing technology — with the same people renewed each year on the long engagements.
THE RESULT
6 years of unbroken collaboration
Team embedded in the agency's rituals and tools
+10 engagements long-term/major delivered, 5 people embedded over the period
Two weeks to get up to speed on a technology new to us. Eg. Spryker
MANAGED SERVICES · MULTI-TECH DEV · DBA · DEDICATED TEAM
02

Happy Technologies

IT RECRUITMENT · FRANCE · 3-4 YEARS
THE PROBLEM
The engagements and the enterprise clients are there; access to a pool of technical talent is not.
WHAT WE DID
Across 3 long engagements renewed for 3-4 years, people interviewed and approved directly by the partner's enterprise client.
THE RESULT
Same rate, same margin since day one of the contract
No commitment until the end client approves the person
2 people put forward, 2 approved for the same client
RECRUITMENT · CLIENT-APPROVED PROFILES
03

Power Digital

DIGITAL AGENCY · IRELAND · SHORT ENGAGEMENTS
THE PROBLEM
Short engagements, too small to justify a hire — and conventional contracting too expensive for the size of the job.
WHAT WE DID
A quote within 48 h on every engagement passed to us. Work starts once approved. Time tracking delivered with each finished piece, so approval and invoicing rest on evidence.
THE RESULT
Zero hiring on the agency's side
Capacity extended beyond internal headroom, quality unchanged
2 h availability SLA, no monthly commitment
STAFFING · 2H SLA · NO COMMITMENT

Koékip

MOBILE APP · RÉUNION, FRANCE · 19 DAYS
THE PROBLEM
The no-code prototype no longer matched what users expected. They needed an app that could be optimised and maintained long term, ready to be judged by real users.
WHAT WE DID
We took over the prototype's features, improved and optimised them, and built the whole app in React Native.
THE RESULT
Live on the App Store and Google Play within 19 days
Full technical and functional documentation, knowledge handed over after sign-off — no dependency on us
0 bugs, 100% maintainable code

Urbidesk

COMMERCIAL REAL-ESTATE PLATFORM · FRANCE · MULTI-YEAR CLIENT
THE PROBLEM
Missing features, performance and SEO to fix. They needed a CRM and automated prospecting — an AI search across social posts (Reddit, Facebook, LinkedIn) to surface matching offices automatically and start the outreach.
WHAT WE DID
Fully autonomous development of the new features, and proactive design of automations that give the sales team its time back.
THE RESULT
From 30th to 5th on Google for a number of keywords
A sales task cut from 30 minutes to 5
AI search switched on for visitors

SITE & IDENTITY REBUILD · 5 DAYS
THE PROBLEM
An ageing site, a logo and a visual identity that had fallen behind the company they stood for.
WHAT WE DID
A full rebuild: logo, visual identity, design, prototype and site build — the team working in parallel, delivered in 5 days.
THE RESULT
A modern site, in line with the market
Logo and visual identity matching the company's ambition
SEO foundations laid and security in place

SEND US A BRIEF

What is written into the contract

A remote supplier is not judged on its promises but on what it agrees to sign. Here is what we sign.

NON-CIRCUMVENTION

Full Contract Refund

You can end the agreement immediately, and we will refund the full amount of the contract already signed.
GUARANTEED RESULTS

No Social Security or Employer Contributions on Your Side

You only pay for the services provided to you. All employee-related costs and contributions are fully covered by us.
INTERRUPTION

5% Refund for Unjustified Absence

If a member of our team is absent without prior approval or valid justification, you automatically receive a 5% reduction on your invoice, with no claim required.
TOTAL CONFIDENTIALITY

Nothing of ours shows up at your client

An NDA before any exchange, a non-compete clause, no contact with your end client. Deliverables 100% white label: not our name, not our accounts, not our commits.
ZERO COMMITMENT

You pay for the days worked, nothing else

No monthly retainer, no minimum, and no commitment until your client approves the person. Our engineers are our employees: payroll taxes and social charges stay on our side.
THE CODE IS YOURS

Paid in 25% instalments, delivered at every milestone

The repository is in your name from the first commit. Payment in 4 instalments of 25%: at each approved milestone the matching code is delivered and becomes yours.
AFTER DELIVERY

You leave self-sufficient, without us

Training included and documentation complete: the knowledge transfer is part of the deliverable, not a paid extra. Your team takes over without us.

What comes on top of the project

FIVE SERVICES THAT ARE NOT MENTIONED IN THE TARIFS SECTION

FULL RATE CARD BELOW ↓
02

Maintenance & enhancements package

A DevOps engineer and a developer on call monthly once the product is live: debugging, recurring fixes and continuous enhancements. A monthly fee, not day-rate billing.
1,500 € / MONTH · WRITE TO US →
03

Deployment, CI/CD, monitoring, systems and network administration. On-call and releases included — the project ends, operations carry on.

05

No-code prototype in 3 days (Lovable)

A complete marketplace in three days: back office, admin area, tenant area and owner area. That is what we delivered to gobro.com.au with Lovable — enough to test the market before committing to a custom build.
450 € · ONE-OFF FEE →
WHITE-LABEL CELLS · CANCELLABLE
MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION · CANCELLABLE

A recurring margin line, produced in cells under your name.

Your social channels run by the studio that built your product.

The easiest line to resell to a client you have already signed. Fixed scope, dedicated PM, your brand guidelines — nothing of ours shows up at your client.

Angela Cindy Bensaid had us migrate Koékip, then handed us her social channels straight after. The same team already knows the product, the tone and which screens to show.

French market: 700 to 1,200 € per account. In a cell: 379 to 438 €.
A French agency charges between 2,000 and 7,000 € a month for this scope; a freelancer between 500 and 800 €.
One invoice, to your agency. Never to your clients.

WHY FIANARANTSOA

A company comes from somewhere. Here is ours.

Founded in 2020 by graduates of the University of Fianarantsoa – National School of Computer Science (ENI), AKATA GOAVANA employs and trains engineers from its own hometown. We are not an outsourced production center: we are a studio with a physical presence, a community, and a vision — to make Fianarantsoa Madagascar’s leading hub for digital excellence.

The faces on this site are ours, not a stock library. Five leads below, thirty employees in all: the number on each photo is the team that person leads.

THE SEVEN QUESTIONS THAT KEEP COMING UP

Answered here, not on the third call.

If your question is not here, it deserves a twenty-minute call — not a form.

Ask it on WhatsApp
01

Why are your prices so low next to a French agency?

The cost of living in Fianarantsoa, a salaried team and no middlemen. Our engineers and team members are our employees. All social security and employer contributions are fully covered by us — never by you. . The rate is published on this page — 136 € per day per person, the same whoever you talk to.

02

How do you work with a team 8,000 km away?

+

Seven to eight hours of shared working day: Paris is 1 to 2 h behind us depending on the season. One steady project manager, fluent in French and English, in your tools and your rituals.

03

Who owns the code?

+

You do, from the first commit: the repository is in your name, and every approved milestone is delivered to you with its documentation.

04

And if you deliver late?

+

5% of the amount is refunded to you per working day late against the contractual date, automatically and with no claim to file, capped at 50%.

05

Can my client find out you exist?

Is my idea protected before I talk about it?

+

No. An NDA signed before the first technical conversation, aliased accounts in your tools, no contact with your end client, nothing of ours in the commits.

Yes. NDA, non-compete and non-solicitation are signed before the brief. Confidentiality is not a paid extra.

06

And if the person assigned is not a fit?

+

They are replaced within 5 working days. The first two trial weeks are billed at −50%, precisely so you can judge.

07

Where is the data hosted?

+

In France: OVH, Hostinger, O2switch or IONOS depending on the project, AWS when the scale calls for it. DPA signed and processing register maintained.

Describe your project. NDA signed before you say a word about it.

A priced quote within 48 h, a written scope, a committed delivery date. If we are not the right studio for your project, we say so on the first call.
