Frequently Asked Questions

Is this freelancing?

No. Asiatal provides dedicated team members who work exclusively for you full-time. Whether it's an engineer, marketer, or designer, they are not juggling multiple clients. This is committed, long-term talent — not gig work.

What does the 6-12 month commitment mean?

We require a minimum 6-month engagement to ensure both sides are invested in the relationship. This leads to better outcomes — real integration, real productivity, real results. After the minimum period, you can cancel with 30 days notice.

What if the hire isn't the right fit?

We offer a free replacement guarantee. If your hire isn't working out, we'll find you a replacement at no additional cost. For the Recruiting Partner plan, this guarantee covers the first 90 days.

What experience level is the talent?

Our talent pool consists of engineers, marketers, and designers with modern skills, high energy, and fluency in AI-augmented workflows. You negotiate their compensation directly at fair Southeast Asian market rates. They're trained in tools like GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Cursor, Midjourney, and more.

How does the AI-ready 5x output work?

Every Asiatal hire is proficient in AI-powered tools specific to their role. Engineers use Copilot and Cursor. Designers use Midjourney and AI prototyping. Marketers use AI analytics and content tools. This allows them to deliver significantly more output than traditional hires.

What's the difference between the Retainer plan and the Recruiting Partner fee?

With the Retainer plan ($499/mo retainer fee), we handle vetting, matching, hiring support, and ongoing talent management. You pay the agreed talent compensation plus our fee, and their compensation is negotiated between you and them. With the Recruiting Partner option, you pay a one-time placement fee — a flat 15% of first-year salary for a single hire, or 12% per hire when you hire 3 or more — and the talent joins your payroll directly. Recruiting Partner is best for companies with existing HR infrastructure.

Which countries does your talent come from?

We have vetted professionals from 7 Southeast Asian countries: Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, and Myanmar.

What timezones do they work in?

Our talent is flexible and experienced in remote work. Most are comfortable working within your timezone or with significant overlap. We align timezone preferences during the matching process.
