Roadmaps that actually ship
Startup Consultancy Services
We help founders make the right tech decisions early, from stack selection and architecture to hiring plans and investor-ready engineering.
Get StartedWhat We Deliver
How We Approach Startup Consultancy
Bad technical decisions in the first six months cost startups 12–18 months of rework at Series A. Typical examples: a monolith that should have been modular, a database that cannot scale, a vendor lock-in nobody noticed until it was too late. Our job is to help you avoid those mistakes before they happen.
We are not a slides-and-frameworks consultancy. Every engagement produces something tangible: a system architecture diagram, a hiring plan, a vendor comparison, a prioritised roadmap. We work alongside your team, not above it.
Who is this for
Pre-seed and seed-stage founders who want to make the right technical decisions before they become expensive mistakes. Startups approaching Series A who need investor-ready technical documentation. Scale-ups who have outgrown their original architecture.
How We Work
Founder Deep Dive
We start with your vision, your constraints, and your timeline. What does success look like in 12 months? What is the one thing that cannot go wrong? We build every recommendation around your actual situation, not a template.
Technical Assessment
We audit your current architecture, codebase health, team capability, and vendor relationships. This surfaces risks and opportunities that most founders only discover when it is too late to fix cheaply.
Roadmap & Architecture Design
We produce a 6–12 month technical roadmap with prioritised decisions, architectural recommendations, and explicit risk trade-offs. You get a document you can share with investors and your team.
Hiring & Team Structure
We advise on when to hire, what roles to hire, and how to structure engineering for your current stage. We also help write job descriptions, design take-home tests, and run technical interviews.
Ongoing Advisory
After the initial engagement, you can retain us for 4–8 hours per month of async advisory. We are the first call when a hard decision comes up: build vs buy, architecture trade-offs, vendor selection.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a startup tech consultant?
A startup tech consultant helps founders make technical decisions without the full-time cost of a CTO. We advise on architecture, vendor selection, hiring, and roadmap, then step back and let your team execute. Think of us as an on-call senior technical adviser.
How is this different from the Fractional CTO service?
The consultancy is project-based and episodic: a focused engagement around a specific challenge like technical due diligence prep, architecture redesign, or tech stack selection. The Fractional CTO service is ongoing weekly involvement in your engineering leadership.
Can you help with investor tech due diligence?
Yes. We prepare the technical documentation investors request, conduct a pre-due-diligence audit to surface issues before investors do, and present findings in a way that builds confidence rather than raises red flags.
How quickly can you assess our tech stack?
A focused technical assessment takes 3–5 business days. We produce a written report covering architecture, security, scalability, technical debt, and team capability, with a prioritised list of recommendations.
Do you work with non-technical founders?
Yes. We translate every technical recommendation into business impact: cost, time, risk, and competitive advantage. You will always understand the why, not just the what.
