Frequently asked questions
Why are LATAM engineers paid less than US engineers?
They're not — compared to the local market. A senior software engineer working for a Brazilian or Colombian company earns significantly less than what Revelo engineers make. Revelo engineers are compensated at international rates, benchmarked against the global remote market, not local salaries.
The difference you see in the calculator reflects the cost of living and market context in Latin America, not a difference in skill level. A senior full-stack engineer with 6+ years of experience commands $111k–$128k through Revelo — well above local market rates, and competitive enough to attract top talent who choose remote work for US companies.
In short: your engineer earns a strong salary for their market. You pay less than a US hire. Both sides win.
What is the Revelo pricing model and what is included in the rate?
Our comprehensive rate covers everything: developer salary, benefits, payroll processing, and our hiring support. We believe in transparent pricing with no hidden fees, offering a straightforward solution to hire top Latin American tech talent.
Does Revelo require a long-term contract?
We offer a flexible, month-to-month hiring model with no long-term contracts. This allows you to scale your team up or down at any time, ensuring you only pay for the talent you need, when you need them.
How does Revelo's billing and payment process work?
We simplify the entire payment process with a single, simple monthly invoice. You pay Revelo directly, and we handle all payments to your developers, ensuring they receive their compensation in their local currency, on time.
