Not included: third-party software licenses you require and additional AI access beyond the $100 monthly allocation. **Q: Who is responsible for the cost of AI tokens?** A: Your assigned developer receives up to $100 in monthly AI tokens or a $100 AI subscription at no extra cost. They can use these to accelerate work with AI tools (with your consent). Credits can be delivered as API tokens (typically OpenRouter) or an AI subscription (e.g., Claude Max). Credits refresh monthly and do not carry over. During the trial period, AI credit usage is limited to $50. If more capacity is needed, you can provide your own API key or subscription. **Q: Why can't I find you on public review sites?** A: We were established in 2003 and have retained clients for up to 19 years. We don't ask for public reviews because our Terms require client confidentiality, we provide a white-label service where our anonymity matters to clients, and we don't manufacture testimonials. Instead, our one-week trial is completely risk-free — you don't pay unless you want to continue. **Q: Can I hire a PHP developer as a vibe coding cleanup specialist?** A: Yes. When you hire dedicated PHP developers from Support Resort, they can take AI-generated code from tools like Cursor, Copilot, or Claude and turn it into clean, maintainable, production-ready code. They handle reviewing and refactoring AI-generated code, removing redundant code, fixing edge cases, ensuring PHP best practices (OOP patterns, PSR standards), and adding proper tests, types, and documentation. **Q: Can your developers work without AI assistance?** A: Absolutely. We prioritize your IP and data security. Developers use AI only with your explicit authorization. You have complete control: disable AI entirely for sensitive systems, allow AI only for specific tasks, or specify which AI platforms are acceptable. Our PHP developers are experienced programmers first — AI enhances productivity but is not a crutch. **Q: Why should I hire PHP developers from Support Resort?** A: When you hire dedicated PHP developers through Support Resort, you get developers who stay, which means systems that work. 72% of clients have stayed 5+ years. We are employers, not a platform — our developers have careers here. Developers are tested on internal projects before client work. All developers complete secure coding training. We have been in business for 22 years. **Q: What guarantees do you offer?** A: Three guarantees: 100% Satisfaction Guarantee (try your developer for one full week on real tasks, pay nothing if not happy), Free Replacement Guarantee (request a change and we handle everything including a free overlap period), and No Lock-In (month-to-month, cancel anytime with reasonable notice). **Q: How does the trial week work?** A: The trial is genuinely risk-free. Your PHP developer works on your actual project for one week. No upfront payment required — if not satisfied, you pay nothing and walk away. If satisfied, pay the first month's fee to continue (covers from trial start date). **Q: How do I assign tasks to my developer?** A: Directly and simply — your developer becomes an extension of your team. Communicate directly using your preferred tool (Slack, Teams, email, Jira). The developer executes autonomously, updating you on progress with daily reports. Your developer focuses solely on your projects — no juggling other clients. **Q: When would my developer work?** A: Full-time dedication: 8 hours per day (including 30-min break), Monday to Friday. Skilled and Seasoned developers work Morning Shift (6am-2pm IST, best for US West Coast, Asia, Australia, New Zealand) or Evening Shift (2pm-10pm IST, best for UK, US Eastern, Europe, Africa, Middle East). Lead developers work Indian business hours (8am-4pm, 9am-5pm, or 10am-6pm IST). **Q: Do you offer part-time PHP developers?** A: While our primary model is full-time dedicated PHP developers, we understand some projects need flexible arrangements. Part-time often works well for ongoing maintenance, technical consulting, code reviews, and smaller projects with defined scope. Contact us to discuss a custom solution. **Q: How do you handle confidential information?** A: We take confidentiality seriously. Every team member is bound by non-disclosure clauses. We never use freelancers or subcontractors — only our own vetted employees. Developers work from secure, IT-managed workstations. **Q: Who owns the code?** A: You do. All code written by your developer belongs entirely to you. It is your intellectual property from the moment it is created. **Q: How does billing work?** A: Billing is simple and predictable. No payment for the trial week and no credit card required. Fixed monthly rate with no hourly surprises. Month-to-month with no long-term contracts. Payment options include domestic bank transfer (USA, Canada, UK, Europe, Australia, New Zealand), international wire transfer, credit card via Wise, and PayPal. ## Additional Services Need other skills?
