Experienced tech leadership
when you need it.
You don't always need a full-time CTO. But you always need someone who understands technology and business at the same time — and stands on your side when decisions need to be made.
Sound familiar?
You have developers but nobody to decide what to build and in what order.
The team is coding — but nobody is steering. Everyone works on what they think matters. The backlog grows. Priorities keep changing. Result: lots of activity, little progress.
An agency says you need a 200k solution. You don't know if that's true.
You received a quote. It sounds serious. But you have no frame of reference — is it too much? Too little? Did they even understand the problem correctly? Without someone on your side, you don't know.
CTO recruitment takes months. But technology decisions need to happen now.
The hiring process takes 3-6 months, the cost of a wrong hire is enormous, and meanwhile you need to choose technologies, sign contracts, and manage the team. You can't wait.
You have a project to implement but don't know how to manage developers.
How do you check if they're doing a good job? How do you assess if the quote is fair? How do you run a sprint review? Without technical context, managing IT is flying blind.
How we work
We start by understanding where you are
Audit of the current state: team, code review, roadmap, backlog, architecture. For the first 1-2 weeks we listen and map — we don't advise before we understand.
We define what and in what order
Technical roadmap aligned with business goals. Priorities backed by logic, not intuition. Technology decisions with reasoning understandable to a non-developer.
We stand on your side with every decision
Evaluating proposals from agencies and freelancers. Verifying quotes. Questions you should be asking — but don't know you should. Someone who understands code and business simultaneously.
We build structures that work without us
Processes, documentation, best practices, onboarding for new developers. The goal isn't to make you dependent on us — the goal is for you to have a well-functioning team even after we finish.
What we cover
Technology strategy
Roadmap, technology selection, system architecture — decisions made with a 3-5 year perspective, not just the next sprint.
Code review and standards
Code quality verification, setting standards, identifying technical debt before it becomes a problem.
Team management
Sprint planning, reviews, retros, developer performance evaluation — structure that enables regular delivery.
Technology due diligence
IT system assessment before investment, acquisition, or partnership. Report for the board and investors.
What you get
- Technical roadmap aligned with business goals
- Code and architecture audit with recommendations
- Backlog management and prioritization
- Evaluation and verification of agency / freelancer proposals
- Specifications and architecture documents
- Code review and team work standards
- Technology due diligence (M&A, investments)
- Developer onboarding and mentoring
Who this is for
Good fit if:
- Startups and scale-ups that have developers but lack a technical leader
- Companies in digital transformation needing a technology guide
- Boards that want to understand IT decisions without becoming programmers
- Organizations verifying agency proposals or planning IT due diligence
May not be a fit if:
- —Companies that need someone to write code — that's a developer role, not a CTO
- —One-off projects where a good specification is enough — we have a separate offering for that
Frequently asked questions
How much time per week do you need from us?
It depends on the scope. For early-stage startups, usually 1-2 days per week. For companies in active transformation or with a large dev team — even full-time for a defined period. We determine this during onboarding.
Can you work with our external developers?
Yes — that's one of the most common scenarios. We verify agency work quality, ask the right questions during demos, evaluate quotes, and make sure you're not overpaying for things you don't need.
Do you leave anything behind when the engagement ends?
Yes. Technical documentation, roadmap, code review report, onboarding materials for the next CTO or developer. We build structures that work without us — that's the goal.
What does technology due diligence look like?
Code and system architecture audit, technical debt assessment, scalability and risk analysis, security verification. The result is a report for the board or investors with an IT state assessment and recommendations. Typically takes 1-2 weeks.
Do you help with technical recruitment?
Yes — we evaluate CVs from a technical perspective, lead or participate in interviews, and assess recruitment tasks. You're hiring someone for years — it's worth having someone who understands code on your side of the table.
