The Dedicated Seat
1-to-1 Specialist Offloading.

When you do not need an entire department replaced, but you have a highly complex, singular workflow draining your local talent, you deploy a Dedicated Seat.

This is not a "Virtual Assistant." The Virtual Assistant model is built on generic, low-skill task execution. The OutSquid Dedicated Seat is an institutional-grade, multi-lingual domain expert (e.g., a maritime compliance officer or a GAAP-certified accountant) embedded directly into your digital environment, operating exclusively for your firm.

INTEGRATION I

The Operational Paradigm

Your Systems. Our Execution.

The Dedicated Seat is designed for seamless integration. You do not migrate your software to us; we deploy our operator into your existing architecture.

Native IntegrationThe operator exists within your corporate Slack, Microsoft Teams, and email domain (e.g., j.doe@yourcompany.com). To your clients and internal staff, they are an invisible extension of your local office.
Direct ERP AccessThey operate directly inside your proprietary software—whether it is CargoWise, SAP, Procore, or Yardi—executing workflows exactly as your local team would.
Timezone AlignmentThe seat operates on your exact required schedule. If your Chicago-based brokerage needs an 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM CST execution window, the operator is locked to that timezone.
TALENT II

The Profile of an Operator

We Do Not Hire Generalists.

A Dedicated Seat is filled by a professional recruited from the top 10% of our global talent pools in ASEAN, LatAm, or Francophone Africa. They undergo rigorous, industry-specific training.

The Logistics CoordinatorManaging track-and-trace, carrier updates, and exception handling for high-volume freight brokers.
The Maritime Compliance DeskVerifying STCW documents, managing crew visas, and updating Flag State portals.
The Property AP SpecialistAbstracting commercial leases and reconciling utility invoices for institutional landlords.
The Pre-Con Estimating ClerkChasing subcontractor COIs and performing digital takeoffs for General Contractors.
SUPPORT III

The Infrastructure Behind the Seat

You Buy the Output. We Manage the Liability.

When you hire a local employee, you assume the burden of payroll taxes, HR compliance, hardware provisioning, and IT security. With a Dedicated Seat, OutSquid assumes 100% of the infrastructural liability.

Zero-Trust SecurityThe operator accesses your environment via our encrypted VDI. Your data never touches their local machine, and all physical hardware is locked down at the BIOS level.
Managed HR & ComplianceWe handle the local labor laws, international payroll, healthcare benefits, and retention bonuses in the operator's native jurisdiction.
Continuous TrainingIf your SOPs update, our internal training architecture ensures your operator adapts instantly.
Architecture Note
SCALABILITY IV

The Limitations of the Seat

When to Upgrade to a Pod.

Transparency is mandatory for enterprise scale. The Dedicated Seat is a highly effective 1-to-1 model, but it lacks the systemic redundancy of our higher-tier deployments.

No Embedded QAUnlike The Operational Pod, the Dedicated Seat does not include a secondary Quality Assurance Manager. The operator reports directly to your local management layer.
Single Point of FailureIf the operator takes approved PTO or sick leave, execution pauses (though OutSquid can provision temporary cover at additional cost).
The Upgrade PathWhen your workflow volume exceeds the 40-hour capacity of a single operator, we seamlessly migrate your architecture into a self-sustaining Operational Pod.
