DHDatara Hub

Services · Scope · Boundaries

Technical work, delivered under a written scope.

One hub, six senior technical practices — for companies that need real execution without hiring a full team. Every engagement states what is included, what is excluded, and what you receive at the end.

Scope agreed in writing before work begins.

Six practices

One hub. Six technical capabilities, equally weighted.

We combine engineering, business analysis and technical program leadership instead of handing every problem to a different vendor. Each practice below states its limits up front.

01

Software Engineering

Internal tools, APIs, dashboards and business applications built to a fixed scope and handed over with source code and documentation — built to be maintained by your team, not to create dependency.

Included

  • Internal tools, business applications and admin panels
  • APIs, integrations and workflow systems
  • Databases: design, migration and performance
  • Source code, documentation and a handover session

Not included

  • Consumer mobile applications
  • 24/7 production on-call unless retained
  • Hardware or embedded firmware

02

AI & Automation

Agentic assistants and automated reporting over your own data, with outputs you can trace back to the numbers that produced them — because a figure nobody can verify is worse than no figure at all.

Included

  • Agentic AI assistants over your own data
  • Reporting automation: Excel/CSV → analysis → Word/PDF
  • Document processing and knowledge systems
  • Validation so every figure stays traceable

Not included

  • Training foundation models from scratch
  • Reselling model licences or credits
  • Autonomous decisions with no human review

03

Cybersecurity

External exposure discovery, scoped web application penetration testing and a risk governance plan your leadership can actually run — visibility of what you already expose, evidence of what an attacker could do with it, and a plan with owners and dates attached.

Included

  • External asset, domain, DNS and certificate discovery
  • Scoped web application penetration testing, under written authorisation
  • Vulnerability analysis, severity triage and a mitigation plan with owners
  • Monitoring, alerting and executive reporting

Not included

  • Full-scope red-team, social engineering and physical intrusion
  • Certified regulatory audits (ISO 27001, SOC 2)
  • 24/7 staffed incident response
Typical shapeAssessment + retainer
Ramp2–3 weeks
Best forCompanies without an in-house SOC

04

Data, Analytics & Engineering

From scattered exports to a data foundation you can trust: pipelines and orchestration, a modelled warehouse, and the dashboards and BI on top — with the metric definitions agreed before the first chart is drawn.

Included

  • Data pipelines and orchestration (Airflow), cleaning and consolidation
  • Data warehousing and modelling (Snowflake, dbt)
  • Operational dashboards, scheduled reporting and business intelligence
  • Metric definitions agreed with the business, queries handed over

Not included

  • Buying or brokering third-party data
  • Real-time streaming platforms at web scale
  • Conclusions the sample size cannot support
Typical shapePipeline + warehouse build
Ramp3–8 weeks
Best forTeams reconciling numbers by hand

05

Technical Delivery & Account Leadership

The person who sits between your engineering team and your customers: roadmaps, vendors, escalations and executive reporting, in language a leadership committee acts on rather than forwards.

Included

  • Roadmaps, delivery planning and risk management
  • Vendor and engineering coordination
  • Escalation handling for enterprise accounts
  • Quarterly reviews and executive reporting

Not included

  • Quota-carrying new-business sales
  • Tier-1 support staffing
  • Contract and legal negotiation
Typical shapeMonthly retainer
Ramp2–4 weeks
Best forTeams delivering without a technical owner

06

Web & Growth

Public-facing sites and landing pages built to convert, not just to launch — with the SEO, analytics and CRM/WhatsApp wiring that turns a visit into a lead you can actually follow up.

Included

  • Conversion-focused websites and landing pages
  • SEO foundations and analytics you can read
  • Forms wired to your CRM, email or WhatsApp, with notifications
  • Source, hosting notes and a handover — the site is yours

Not included

  • Ongoing content writing or social media management
  • Paid-ads media buying and budget management
  • Brand identity design from scratch

The cost of leaving it

Manual work is not free. It is just invoiced as salary.

Move the sliders to your reality. The figure on the right is what the manual version costs you every year, before anyone has automated anything.

1,152 hours a year

Rough arithmetic — people × hours × rate × 48 working weeks. It is an order of magnitude, not a quote. Nothing you type here leaves your browser.

Packages

Three ways to start, one written scope.

Fixed, productised entry points. Every package is scoped in writing, and the code, documentation and credentials are yours at the end. Prices are starting points in USD; the exact figure follows the assessment.

How to start

Small first, then bigger — never the other way round.

Most clients begin with an assessment because it is the cheapest way to find out whether we are useful to each other.

01

Assessment

Two weeks. Findings, options and a roadmap you own whether or not we continue.

from USD 1,500
02

MVP

One painful process, automated or built, delivered working.

from USD 4,500
03

Implementation

The full system: integrations, security controls, deployment, documentation.

from USD 9,000
04

Retainer

Ongoing technical leadership, monitoring and improvement.

from USD 1,200/mo

Questions

The ones that come up on every first call.

Who actually does the work?

A senior technical consultant with delivery experience across software engineering, AI automation, defensive security, data analysis and program management. For larger builds a small vetted team is added, and you are told who is on it before work starts.

What happens after an assessment?

You keep the findings and the roadmap. There is no obligation to continue, and the roadmap is written so another provider could execute it.

Can you work alongside our existing IT provider?

Yes. Most engagements run beside an internal team or an existing vendor. We define who owns what at the start, so there is no overlap and no gap.

Do you perform penetration testing?

Yes — scoped web application penetration testing, run by a certified Web Penetration Tester under written authorisation and agreed rules of engagement. What stays excluded is full-scope red-team work, social engineering and physical intrusion, which need a different team and a different contract. The scope is written and signed before anything is tested.

Do you work with companies outside Mexico?

Yes. Work is delivered remotely in English or Spanish, with overlap hours agreed at the start. Current focus is Mexico and Latin America, then the United States and Canada.

Who owns the code and the data?

You do. Source code, documentation and credentials are handed over at the end of the engagement, and any access we hold is revoked when the work closes.
