Need a technical co-founder but can't find one? Hire fractional CTO leadership that acts like a co-founder without giving up equity.
Finding a technical co-founder is one of the hardest challenges for non-technical founders. But you don't always need to give up equity to get co-founder-level technical involvement.
Equity should go to people who will be with you for the long haul. Our fractional model lets you get co-founder-level expertise during your most critical early stages without diluting your ownership. Many clients work with us for 12-24 months before hiring their permanent technical leadership.
From first call to first commit in under a week.
Understand your product, stack, and what success looks like
Match the right engineer(s) based on your needs
Slack access, repo access, codebase walkthrough
First PR merged, hitting the ground running
“Aravind is in the top 1% of engineers I've hired. He supported us from $100K to $5M ARR, keeping us shipping through crazy growth and investor scrutiny.”
Start with a 30-minute discovery call where we understand your needs, tech stack, and goals. We then match you with the right engineer(s) from our team. Onboarding typically takes 2-3 days, and most engineers ship their first PR within the first week.
Our engagements are structured as monthly retainers based on the scope and seniority needed. We're transparent about pricing—book a call to discuss your specific needs and get a custom quote. There are no hidden fees or account manager overhead.
Yes, we offer flexible month-to-month engagements. While most clients work with us for 6-12+ months, there's no long-term lock-in. We believe in earning your continued partnership through results, not contracts.
Our engineers have shipped products at venture-backed startups and understand the unique pressures of early-stage companies. They take ownership of outcomes, not just tasks. You get direct Slack access—no project managers or account executives in between.
Our team is full-stack and adaptable. We have deep experience with React/Next.js, Node.js, Python, TypeScript, AWS, GCP, and modern AI/LLM frameworks. We can also ramp up quickly on new technologies if needed.
