20+

Years · Mexico & LATAM · Est. 2013

Long-lasting customer relationships.

The Near Expert is the result of two decades of commitment to engineering excellence — now multiplied by AI. Every developer on our bench works fluently with Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor, and agent-based workflows that compress timelines and raise the quality bar.

We have delivered for government entities, early-stage startups, venture capital firms and large enterprises — and today we help each of them ship AI-assisted software the disciplined way.

With top remote talent across the Americas serving USA & Canada, the big advantages of our nearshore model and its benefits became clear to our clients: proximity, time zone, cultural affinity, ease of doing business and cost savings.
