Two ways to work

Pay for the build.
Or bet with us.

Most founders bring a monthly budget and hire us to deliver. A few bring a vision strong enough for us to join the bet. Both models stay lean, direct, and accountable.

MODEL 01

Build + maintain

One monthly budget.
We ship and maintain.

You set the cash ceiling. We cut the scope to fit, ship working software every week, launch it, and keep it healthy. No hourly mystery. No hostage code.

  • Predictable monthly spend
  • Weekly working releases
  • Launch ownership
  • Ongoing maintenance

MODEL 02

Virtual CTO partnership

Small retainer.
Shared equity. Long game.

For a small number of serious, long-horizon products, we join as the technical partner: roadmap, architecture, hiring, delivery, and scale. Lower cash. Real equity. Shared upside.

  • Virtual CTO ownership
  • Lean monthly cash
  • Aligned equity stake
  • Selective partnerships only
Pitch the vision
Straight answers

What you should know before spending money.

How much data is required?

The answer depends on the use case. Content metadata, rules, and contextual signals can support a useful first system before large volumes of behavioral history exist.

Can business teams control recommendations?

Yes. Inventory, margin, compliance, diversity, freshness, and merchandising rules can be explicit inputs rather than hidden model behavior.

How is quality measured?

We combine offline relevance measures with product outcomes such as discovery, conversion, completion, repeat use, and user feedback.

Enough research

The next useful artifact is working software.

Bring the workflow, idea, or delivery mess. We’ll cut it to the leanest credible build and tell you which partnership model fits.
