Flexible pricing for every stage

Engagement models that flex with your funding, fixed-scope MVPs, retainers, or embedded pods.

Track record of 40+ launches

Products that raised rounds, acquired users, and scaled, not just MVPs that got shelved.

Frequently asked questions

What founders ask us first.

Do you work with pre-revenue startups?
Yes, we work with founders from the earliest stages. We offer fixed-scope MVP engagements, discovery sprints, and prototype builds designed specifically for pre-revenue teams with finite runway.
How do you price engagements for startups?
We offer several models: fixed-price for discovery sprints and MVPs; monthly retainers for ongoing product development; and dedicated squad embedding for Series A+ teams. We work with your runway, not against it.
Can you act as a technical co-founder?
Yes. Our CTO-as-a-Service engagement pairs a senior technical leader with your team to own architecture, hiring, and delivery, giving you the judgment of a co-founder without the full-time comp or equity ask.
How quickly can you start building?
A discovery sprint can begin in under a week. MVP engagements typically kick off within 2–3 weeks of scope alignment. Dedicated pod embedding for larger teams takes 3–4 weeks to staff and ramp.
Will you introduce us to investors?
We make introductions when we believe there's a genuine fit. Our network includes seed and early-stage VCs, angels, and family offices. We don't promise intros, we make them when the match is right.
