{ Build & Protect }
For founders with AI-built MVPs who need a technical partner to keep the product safe, stable, and moving every month.
Start for £799/moA monthly development partnership for founders who have outgrown re-prompting and need senior technical judgement without hiring a full-time dev team and full-time CTO.
Add fixes, improvements, and feature requests into one shared queue. We work through it continuously, keeping momentum without turning every change into a new project.
Get plain-English technical direction on architecture, security, tradeoffs, roadmap sequencing, tooling, and what should not be built yet.
{ What you get }
Feature improvements, UX fixes, integration work, bug fixes, and product polish from one prioritised backlog.
Exposed keys, auth gaps, open database rules, fragile endpoints, dependency risk, and other AI-codegen weak spots.
Spot inefficient loops, runaway token usage, slow queries, and avoidable cloud-cost spikes before they hurt runway.
A clear update on what changed, what is risky, what should happen next, and where the product roadmap needs discipline.
{ Why it works }
Codebase review, product goals, current bugs, cloud setup, security gaps, and the founder’s most urgent launch concerns.
Requests are grouped into hardening, bug fixes, product improvements, and roadmap items so the right work happens first.
Every week you get visible progress, a clear technical update, and practical guidance on what to do next.
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.
Both. The offer combines ongoing maintenance, hardening, bug fixes, roadmap advice, and product development into one monthly partnership.
Solo or light-technical founders with AI-built MVPs from tools like Lovable, Replit, Cursor, Base44, or Bolt.new who need help making the product safe and shippable.
Large rewrites, compliance-heavy enterprise work, 24/7 incident response, and guaranteed same-day delivery are scoped separately when needed.
