MVP Planning
Tech Strategy
Dev Oversight
Vendor Vetting
Launching a digital product as a non-tech founder can feel overwhelming. Tech stacks, developer lingo, hiring challenges — we help you navigate all of it. As your Virtual CTO, we bring senior product thinking, technical clarity, and practical leadership — without taking equity or burning your budget.
What does a Virtual CTO do?
- Map your MVP or product idea into realistic tech
- Plan the right stack, flow, and timeline
- Source, vet, and manage developers
- Review architecture and code
- Prioritize features based on value
- Protect you from overbuilding or overhiring
- Communicate with tech people on your behalf
Perfect for founders who...
- Have a great idea, but no tech lead
- Are tired of wasting money on flaky devs
- Need someone to “own the tech side”
- Want to validate before building full-scale
- Are raising and need a tech roadmap
Why this model works
No equity required
Keep control of your company. You get strategic thinking, not dilution.
Senior experience
You get a senior technologist who has built, launched, and scaled products — not just a dev-for-hire.
Plain-English plans
We translate tech into simple language so you always know what’s happening.
The real risk: bad decisions early on
Founders waste thousands building too soon, hiring too fast, or trusting the wrong dev. A Virtual CTO helps you avoid that.
- Bad stack choice = rebuild later
- No spec = devs guess (and bill more)
- No product lead = chaos and rewrites
- No roadmap = delays and scope creep
