{ Build & Ship }
For founders with a product idea who need a senior technical team to design, build, and ship — without hiring a full-time dev team and full-time CTO.
Start for £799/moA monthly development partnership for founders with a real idea who need a senior team to design and build it — without hiring a full-time dev team and full-time CTO.
Add features, screens, integrations, and product changes into one shared queue. We work through it continuously, keeping the build moving every week.
Get plain-English technical direction on architecture, stack choice, tradeoffs, roadmap sequencing, hiring, and what should not be built yet.
{ What you get }
New features, screens, flows, and integrations built end-to-end from one prioritised backlog.
Stack choice, hosting, database design, auth, payments, and the technical foundations your product needs from day one.
Right-sized infrastructure, sensible defaults, and avoidable cloud-cost spikes spotted before they hurt runway.
A clear update on what shipped, what is next, what is risky, and where the product roadmap needs discipline.
{ Why it works }
Product goals, scope, stack choice, architecture, and a roadmap to a launchable first version — sized to the founder’s real budget and timeline.
Features, screens, integrations, and improvements come from one prioritised queue, so the product moves forward visibly every week.
From the first launch through user feedback and follow-on releases, you get visible weekly progress and a clear technical update every step.
A Chief Technology Officer is the senior person responsible for the technical direction of a product or company. They decide what to build, how to build it safely, which tools and architecture to use, and where the real risks are — so the team ships the right things in the right order.
A Fractional CTO is a senior technical leader you bring in part-time instead of hiring a full-time executive. You get the same judgement on architecture, security, hiring, roadmap, and tradeoffs — for a fixed monthly cost, scaled to where your product actually is. It is the right fit for founders who need senior technical thinking before they can justify a full-time CTO salary.
You can add unlimited requests to the queue. We work through them continuously in priority order. It is built for steady product progress, not parallel delivery of unlimited large projects at once.
Yes. Build & Ship is designed for founders starting from an idea or a rough spec. We help with stack choice, architecture, and the first launchable version, then keep building and iterating month over month.
Solo or light-technical founders with a real product idea who need a senior team to design, build, and ship the first versions — and keep iterating after launch.
Large rewrites, compliance-heavy enterprise work, 24/7 incident response, and guaranteed same-day delivery are scoped separately when needed.
