Testimonial

What Our Customers Say

Founders, Leaders and HR heads of fast growing startups across US, Europe, SEA and Oceania trust our services to manage their India teams.

Saurabh Sharma

Saurabh Sharma

Co-founder & CEO at Onereach, USA

The Wisemonk team played a key role in helping us hire for specialized B2B SaaS marketing skills. We were able to build the team within four months, and hire experienced professionals from Tier 1/major B2B SaaS brands. This includes SEO, digital marketing, business development, product marketing, content marketing, and GTM roles. They are a great partner providing integrated services for EOR and recruitment/hiring and I’d recommend them to any B2B SaaS vendor.

Monika Russell

CFO at Minehub, Canada

We've been using WiseMonk to support our India team for the past six months, and the experience has been excellent. They've handled everything from payroll and statutory compliance to equipment procurement and benefits enrollment — all with a level of responsiveness and professionalism that makes managing a remote India team from Canada feel seamless. Nileena and the team are always quick to reply and proactive about flagging anything we need to know. We'd happily recommend WiseMonk to other companies looking to hire and manage talent in India.

Wisemonk is a key partner for EOM-Energy O&M Services, playing an essential role in supporting our operations.

Mandan M Sharma

CEO at The Humble Bucks LLC

As the CEO of The Humble Bucks LLC, I had a great experience working with Wisemonk.io. They made our hiring process in India smooth, efficient, and cost-effective. We were assigned a dedicated recruiter who helped us find and hire three EOR employees at a very competitive price.
Beyond hiring, Wisemonk’s support team was extremely helpful in managing important operational logistics. They assisted us with coordinating meeting-related needs, including flight tickets, employee laptops, and other practical requirements, which saved us significant time and effort.
Overall, Wisemonk has been a reliable partner for The Humble Bucks LLC. Their combination of recruiting support, EOR services, and hands-on operational assistance made the entire experience seamless. I would recommend Wisemonk to any company looking to hire and manage employees in India with confidence.

Gear Fisher

Gear Fisher

Co-founder at Onform, USA

Process was professional & very smooth. We've worked with Wisemonk to source developers in India and it's worked incredibly well for us. We are very pleased with the talent of the developers and the Wisemonk process was professional and very smooth. We highly recommend using Wisemonk for talent sourcing!

Frank Menes

Founder & CEO at Senem RFP

We came across Wisemonk and met with the CEO and staff to explain our situation, and were very impressed with their customer-focused approach to their business. Wisemonk onboarded all of my employees in one or two days. They paid my employees' salaries on the day after my payment cleared. Needless to say, my employees and I were very satisfied with their service then and remain so over a year later. We are an American company, so I was very happy to see that they have a US bank account where I can make ACH payments to minimize bank charges. All salary payments are timely. They worked directly with my employees to enroll them in the health care program and explain any coverage-related issues. The best part is that we get to work with a dedicated person assigned to our company. I would highly recommend Wisemonk and think of them as our Indian HR department.

Dan Sampson

Dan Sampson

Head of Engineering at Cobu, USA

I'm very Happy that I discovered Wisemonk. They have been a pure pleasure to work with, and their attention to detail is impressive. They helped us understand their pricing model, find top-qualified individuals, interview them, and then onboard them. I gave them criteria for the type of people we sought, and they delivered. The individuals they were able to find have been some of the best engineers I have ever worked with. I recommend Wisemonk to anyone who is in need of staffing assistance.

Krishna Ramachandran

Krishna Ramachandran

Co-founder at Onform, USA

I highly recommend them. Wisemonk helped us tap into the vibrant and top-notch Indian talent market and hire our first couple of founding engineers in record time. We've been able to accelerate our roadmap and deliver terrific value to our customers thanks to Wisemonk's efforts. They are easy to work with and very transparent about the process. I highly recommend them to any company looking for talent located in India.

Tak Yamamoto

President at Red Hill Technology Solutions, Inc.

Red Hill Technology Solutions has run its India engineering team on Wisemonk for the past year and a half. They handle payroll and benefits end to end, so I can offer my employees good health insurance without having to master the idiosyncrasies of Indian benefits myself. Payroll cutoff reminders arrive every month before I need them, and off-cycle bonus runs have never been a problem. Even equipment purchasing, a real headache for a US company shipping to Indian addresses, is as simple as telling them what I need. Exchange rates are fair and the pricing is transparent.

Deepika Elumalai, our point of contact, ties it all together. Whatever comes up, she pulls in the right people and sees it through. For any US company building a team in India, Wisemonk is an easy recommendation.

Frequently asked questions

How fast can we start hiring developers in India?
Less than 48 hours from kickoff. Contracts, compliance setup, and your first hiring scorecard are ready in 2 days, and your first interviews can begin the same week.
Do you ever talk to our clients?
No. White-label by default. Your clients see your brand, your delivery, and your team. Wisemonk stays invisible unless you explicitly choose to disclose us.
Where in India can you hire developers?
Across all of India. We support fully remote hiring nationwide, with strong talent hubs in Bangalore, Pune, Hyderabad, Delhi NCR, and Chennai.
What if we are switching from another India hiring vendor?
We migrate your existing India team in 14 days. Contracts, payroll, benefits, and compliance transfer cleanly with zero downtime for your developers.
What is your pricing model?
Flat per-seat monthly fee. No hidden margins, no markup on developer salaries, no surprise compliance charges. You see the full breakdown before you sign.
What is the minimum team size?
Start with 1 developer. Scale to 50 or more as your client base grows. No minimum commitment on team size.
Do you help us find the talent too?
Yes. Our recruitment division sources, screens, and shortlists vetted India developers for you. Useful if you want speed without building your own India hiring pipeline.
Who legally employs the developers, us or Wisemonk?
Wisemonk is the legal employer in India. We hold the employment contract, run payroll, and own the compliance burden. You get full operational control of your developers day to day.
What happens if we need to let a developer go?
We handle the entire offboarding under Indian labour law including notice periods, final settlement, and statutory exits. You make the decision, we manage the legal and operational closure.
Do you protect our intellectual property?
Yes. Every developer signs an enforceable IP assignment agreement and NDA at onboarding, drafted under Indian law so your client work and source code remain fully yours.
