Nearshore · Paraguay
Nearshore software development from Paraguay
DPR is a software studio in Asunción, Paraguay, building web platforms, mobile apps and data systems for companies in the US, Europe and Latin America. You get a senior team that works in your hours, communicates in English and delivers every week.
Why nearshore with Paraguay
Time zone overlap
Paraguay is on GMT-3: one to two hours ahead of US Eastern time, with a full shared workday for standups, reviews and quick calls.
Competitive rates
Paraguay has one of the lowest costs of living in South America, which translates into senior engineering at rates well below US and European markets.
Cultural alignment
Direct communication, Western business practices and teams used to working with international clients.
Stable, growing tech scene
A young workforce, a steadily growing technology sector and a business-friendly economy.
What we build for international clients
- Custom software and internal tools
- Web platforms and SaaS products with Next.js and Node.js
- iOS and Android apps with React Native
- Data pipelines, BI dashboards and process automation
- Ongoing maintenance and evolution of existing products
How engagements work
We work either as a project team — fixed scope, weekly deliveries — or as an extension of your engineering team, joining your standups, repositories and tools. Either way, code lives in your repository from day one and you have full visibility into progress.
We start with a short paid discovery to align on goals, architecture and the metric that defines success. Then we move into weekly cycles with working software at the end of each one.
Nearshore vs. offshore
Offshore teams in distant time zones often mean overnight feedback loops and slower decisions. With a nearshore team in Paraguay, questions get answered the same day, meetings happen during normal hours and projects move faster at a similar cost.
