At the pre-seed stage stage, you face unique technical and organizational challenges. Here's how a fractional cto helps:
At the pre-seed stage stage ($0 - $500K), you need a fractional cto who understands the unique pressures of your growth phase. You're not a large company with established processes—you need someone who can move fast while building foundations that scale.

Pre-Seed Stage startups ($0 - $500K raised) typically need a fractional cto when building mvp with limited resources. At this stage, you need senior technical leadership without the full-time commitment or cost.
For Pre-Seed Stage startups, fractional cto engagements typically range from $8,000-20,000/month for 10-25 hours/week. This is significantly less than a full-time hire ($300-500K+ salary + equity) while getting senior expertise from day one.
At Pre-Seed Stage, a fractional cto focuses on building mvp with limited resources and technical co-founder gap. They provide part-time executive technical leadership tailored to your funding stage and growth trajectory.
Typical Pre-Seed Stage engagements last 6-18 months. Many startups continue through their next funding round, with the fractional cto eventually helping hire a full-time replacement.
