Your call, your timing
Why teams trust us

An AI product company first — not a staffing broker

Echnotek builds and ships production AI. The same engineers who run these products design and run the candidate evaluation — so we verify AI talent the way practitioners do.

Enterprise-grade AI agents

Real production Applied-AI work our Associates learn from.

Process re-engineering

Automation and workflow expertise in-house.

End-to-end product engineering

From concept to cloud — apps, dashboards, backends.

Employment, payroll & compliance — handled in-house

Data privacy

Your data stays inside our four walls

Your resource works from Echnotek's secured office on data that comes from you — so we treat your data protection as seriously as you do.

Secured office, not personal devices

Resources work on-site from access-controlled Echnotek offices — never from personal laptops, cafés or unmanaged machines.

NDA & DPA before day one

Signed by Echnotek and the resource before any of your data is touched, with clear data-handling terms you approve.

Least-privilege access

Resources reach only what the work needs, over secure/VPN connections to your systems — access is scoped, logged and reviewed.

Nothing leaves — purged on offboarding

No copies leave the environment. When an engagement ends, your data is purged and every access is revoked.

Facts, not a score

Why our verification is different

01 — SCREENED BY PRACTITIONERS

The people who vet your AI hires build AI for a living. Reviews are run by Echnotek's own ML engineers — not recruiters reading a checklist.

02 — RISK REVERSED

Replacement guarantee, and billing starts only on successful deployment. The risk sits on our balance sheet, not yours.

03 — TRANSPARENT VERIFICATION

Every candidate arrives with a full report — identity, education, technical review, interview, recommendation. Facts, never a score.

Questions, answered

How do you verify candidates?+

Every candidate goes through identity & education checks, a technical project review, and a live interview — all run by Echnotek's own ML engineers. You receive the full report as facts, never a black-box score.

How does the pricing work?+

$1,000/month for the first 6 months (grooming), then $2,000/month for a 12-month partnership. After that you can continue on Echnotek billing at an agreed rate, or convert to your payroll for a fair, pre-agreed fee. Billing starts only on successful deployment.

Whose payroll are they on?+

Trainees deploy onto your team but stay on Echnotek's payroll — you direct the work; we handle employment, payroll and statutory compliance (PF / ESI / TDS).

What if a resource isn't the right fit?+

Replace them with 1-month notice. When a replacement joins, your 6-month grooming period restarts — the risk sits with us, not you.

Can I request skills beyond Applied AI?+

Yes. We specialize in Applied AI, but we're committed to sourcing other stacks — Java, .NET, Node and more — on request.

What if there's no strong match yet?+

We won't pad your shortlist with weak matches. Instead we'll offer to source verified candidates to your brief (typically ~2–3 weeks) or propose a supervised-pod alternative so work can start sooner.
