Diagnostic
Find your gap
What your company needs changes with its stage. A validated idea without a product needs a different response from a team whose early technical decisions are cracking under growth. We start with the “gap” in front of you and choose the work that will close it.

Two questions, one sheet
Pre-product
The first decisions are what to build and how to build it: vibe-coding, an agency, a technical co-founder or an offshore team. Mistakes here are the most expensive to make and the cheapest to prevent.
- A build-route recommendation, with each route’s cost and risk side by side
- A costed MVP scope, with the first features, stack and team defined
- A technical foundation that can support growth
Pre-seed to seed
Your product was built by an agency, a contractor or a vibe-coding tool, and every change still goes back through them. No one owns the architecture and there is technical debt. That cost compounds until someone resolves it.
- Clear ownership of technical decisions and delivery
- A founding technical team to build in-house capability
- A plan to reduce technical debt
Between rounds
The product is not quite meeting the market, you cannot move it away from the agency, the early build cannot support what comes next or there needs to be a pivot to resolve issues.
- Architecture and processes that support the next stage of growth
- A plan to remove technical bottlenecks
- Technical leadership with the capacity to take you further
SME
You have revenue, operations and customers, but no one to decide what to digitise, what to automate and where AI would help. Building without that direction is expensive. Following the wrong direction costs more.
- Technical direction for digital transformation: what to build, in what order and why
- AI and automation that reduce cost or manual work
- R&D development work that can’t be claimed against an R&D tax incentive
Technical direction
Fractional Technical Leadership
A fractional CTO or CPO inside your company, starting with diagnosis so your needs determine the work.
People to build
Engineers who fill the gaps in your team, sourced, screened and placed onshore or offshore.
Both
Fractional Technical Leadership, then Team Provisioning
Sometimes that is leadership. Other times it is talent. Often it is the sequence between the two.
