We ship every week. This page is the receipt: features, improvements, and fixes that founders, engineers, and partners actually feel. We do not list refactors, dependency bumps, or anything you would never notice.

Founders can now pick more than one candidate after intro calls. Each enters its own 48-hour trial in parallel.
At the end of the trial, decide who to keep. Each engineer becomes its own weekly subscription you can cancel independently.
Replaced the legacy written application with a voice-based intake. Same review pipeline, decisions land within two business days.
If you applied and were on the waitlist, you do not need to reapply, your existing application is being processed in the new pipeline.
Bumped contrast tokens in dark and light themes. Added focus rings to all interactive elements.
Result: zero unreadable text findings on the internal sweep across founders, engineers, partners, blog, and the help center.
Partners earn 10% recurring on referred founders and 5% recurring on referred engineers, both stack and pay forever.
Weekly Stripe payouts. No invoicing. See the calculator at /partners#calculator.
One click on any active engagement to wrap Friday. A fresh shortlist arrives by Monday.
The engineer always finishes the week and is paid in full. No mid-week disruption, no awkward goodbyes.
Three-screen, phone-frame flow at /m/book. Pick a stack, confirm slots, sign up.
Ninety seconds end to end on a single thumb. Picks up the same matching pool as the desktop flow.
Founder-to-engineer messages now use Pusher with an automatic polling fallback. Median delivery latency dropped from 2.3s to under 500ms.
No history is lost on the fallback path, the platform reconciles the gap when the connection comes back.
Every engineer in the pool now has a public page at cadence.work/e/their-handle.
Stack, recent shipped work, and a 'book a similar engineer' CTA founders can hand off in DMs.
Cleaned up the Stripe Connect prompts for engineers in India after a string of TIN/PAN validation failures.
Support tickets in this flow are down ~70% week over week.
Founders are now nudged once at end of day instead of three times throughout. Cleaner inbox, same response rate.
Optional one-line context shows up in the engineer's weekly digest if it was constructive.
Founders can pause an active engagement for up to four weeks at 25% of the weekly rate to hold capacity.
The engineer must accept the pause. Most do, but the option is theirs.
Active engagements, invoices, ratings, and replacement actions all on one screen.
Replaces the old multi-tab layout. Page loads ~3x faster and the most common actions (rate the day, replace at week-end) are now one click.
Inlined critical CSS, deferred analytics, dropped two icon dependencies.
Median First Contentful Paint on /founders, /engineers, /partners is now 760ms (was 1.4s).
Junior $500, Mid $1,000, Senior $1,500, Lead $2,000 per week, 40 hours dedicated. Same rate across all stacks.
Part-time options at proportional pricing (20 or 10 hours per week) available per match.
Cadence is live. Two-minute booking, 48-hour trial, weekly billing, cancel any week.
Built on six months of private beta with 60 founders, 200 engineers, and a long list of bugs we squashed before letting anyone in.
Cadence ran in private beta from June 2025 through mid-December 2025 with 60 founders and 200 engineers. We do not list every iteration from that period publicly, but if you are a founder or engineer who was in the beta and want to dig through your own history, ping hello@cadence.work with your handle.
