  • Tech strategy & architecture
  • Investor-pitch support

  • Fraction of a full-time cost

Discuss the project

A CTO before you can afford one

Senior technical leadership on a monthly retainer — not a full-time salary.

A fractional CTO is a senior technical leader on a part-time retainer. They own your architecture and tech decisions, help you hire and lead engineers, and stand behind your product in investor conversations — for a fraction of a full-time CTO’s cost.

How it works
  1. 1

    Get up to speed

    We review your product, stack and roadmap, then set the technical priorities that matter now.

  2. 2

    Own the architecture

    We make the stack and scaling decisions and keep technical debt under control as you grow.

  3. 3

    Hire & lead the team

    We vet, hire and mentor engineers so you build the right team, not just a bigger one.

  4. 4

    Investor-ready

    We back your pitch with a credible technical story and handle due-diligence questions.

Where startups go wrong

Three traps this stage avoids

Direction

No tech leader

Founders guess architecture and tooling.

Cost

Can’t afford full-time

Senior CTOs are expensive and scarce.

Hiring

Wrong hires

No one senior to vet and lead engineers.
