What we do

01Idea → MVP Sprint// 3–6 weeks

A fixed-scope sprint that takes a one-page brief to a working, demo-able product. Real users, real data, real code.

  • + Discovery & scoping
  • + Design system + key flows
  • + Production-grade build
  • + Deploy + handoff
02AI Integration & Agents// 2–8 weeks

Embed LLMs, retrieval, and agentic workflows into existing products — or build AI-native ones from scratch. We've shipped on Anthropic, OpenAI, and open models.

  • + Eval-driven development
  • + RAG & memory architecture
  • + Tool-using agents
  • + Cost & latency tuning
03Rapid Prototyping// 1–2 weeks

Hi-fi, clickable prototypes for fundraising, user testing, or stakeholder alignment. Not Figma — real software you can demo on a phone.

  • + Interactive prototype
  • + Lightweight backend stubs
  • + Shareable build
  • + 1 round of revisions
04Product Strategy// Ongoing

Embedded strategy work for teams between PM hires. Roadmaps that survive contact with engineering, written by people who can also build it.

  • + Roadmap & sequencing
  • + Customer research
  • + Pricing & positioning
  • + Quarterly reviews
05Fractional CTO// 3+ months

Senior engineering leadership for pre-seed and seed teams. Architecture, hiring, vendor decisions, and code review — without the full-time burn.

  • + Tech strategy
  • + Hiring & interviews
  • + Architecture review
  • + Investor diligence support

60-minute call. We leave with a one-page scope, a fixed timeline, and a date.

What we believe

§ 01Software is cheaper to build than it has ever been. Most teams have not yet adjusted.

§ 02We believe the right team of three, with the right tools, can outship a department. We've watched it happen — and done it ourselves.

§ 03We don't sell hours. We sell outcomes, on dates, with code you own. The best version of a consultancy is one that's trying to put itself out of a job.

§ 04Our work is opinionated. We will tell you what to cut. We will push back on the demo that doesn't ship. We're not the right fit for every team — but for the ones we are, we're the last vendor they hire.

Frequently asked

Agencies bill hours and optimize for retention. We scope fixed outcomes on fixed dates and try to compress every engagement. Most projects are 3–6 weeks, not 6 months.
