// WHAT_WE_BUILD
Three offerings. One engine.
A senior CTO with AI-native delivery, embedded into your product. Fixed price. Fixed weeks. No standups, no agency overhead, no junior dev with Cursor. Pick the entry point that matches where you are.
// THE THREE TIERS
Pick the entry point that matches where you are.
TIER 1 · RESCUE
Turn a fragile codebase into a fundable asset
Prototype code can't pass DD, can't scale, can't onboard a real team. We rebuild it in 4-8 weeks at fixed fee — ready for the next round, customer, or acquirer.
- [+]Pass tech DD in your next round
- [+]SOC2-ready audit trail and security posture
- [+]Open the enterprise sales motion
- [+]A codebase your next 3 hires can actually extend
4-8 weeks · fixed fee
SCOPE A RESCUETIER 2 · NEW BUILD
Ship a new product in one quarter
MVP, AI-native product, or a whole new venture stack. Six-to-twelve weeks to production. The senior team that ships sits on the work — not a vendor account manager between you and the code.
- [+]Production-grade V1 in one quarter
- [+]Capped budget, weekly business demos in your KPIs
- [+]Capability transfer included — your team owns it on day 1
- [+]£75-250k fixed vs. £400k-1.5M agency or consultancy
6-12 weeks · fixed fee
SCOPE A NEW BUILDTIER 3 · ENTERPRISE AI
Production AI inside your perimeter
90% of AI demos never ship. We build the 10% that do — customer-facing AI products, internal AI productivity, or AI-native data platforms. Inside your security boundary, with capability transfer to your team.
- [+]Customer-facing AI products that reach production
- [+]Internal AI productivity that compounds quarter-on-quarter
- [+]Air-gapped or VPC-deployed where compliance demands
- [+]Your team owns the system from day 1
8-14 weeks · fixed fee
SCOPE AN AI BUILD// WHY THIS ENGINE
Why this works when agencies and in-house teams don't
Senior on the work, not on the call
The CTO doing the architecture is the same person writing the code. No account manager between you and the people shipping. The "single talented person who replaces a team" is now an industry baseline — that's who we put on your build.
AI-native delivery
AI does the typing; senior judgement does the architecture. ~50% of code at Google is now AI-generated; we run a similar ratio. That's why an 8-week timeline is real, not aspirational.
Fixed price, capped budget
You know what you're paying before we start. No hourly billing, no scope creep, no surprise invoices. We hit the date because the senior who scoped it is the senior who builds it.
// PROCESS
From first call to shipped product
Five steps. Deliberately small, deliberately senior, deliberately fast.
Strategy call
30-60 minutes with the senior who will run the build. We map scope, constraints and success metrics. NDA-ready, no deck.
Fixed-price scope
Within five business days: written scope, deliverables, weekly demo plan and capped budget. You either green-light or walk away — no sunk-cost trap.
Sprint
Senior operators on the work, AI-native delivery, weekly business demos in your KPIs. Architecture decisions logged, not buried in Slack.
Production
Deployed system, security pass, observability, runbook. Not "ready for handover, with caveats" — production.
Hand-off
90-day knowledge transfer, documentation, on-call line for the first month. Your team owns the system on day one of post-engagement.
// WHAT WE WON'T DO
The honest disqualifiers
No hourly retainers. We sell shipped outcomes, not time.
No managing your existing engineering team. Either we ship the build, or we don't take the work.
No open-ended discovery. Five days from call to scope; if we can't scope it, the answer is no.
No junior dev hiding behind a senior bio. The CTO on the call is the CTO writing the code.
No vibe coding for production systems. We use AI like the hyperscalers do — for leverage, not for shortcuts.
Have a build in mind?
Tell us what you're shipping and we'll come back inside five business days with a fixed-price scope. If we can't, we say so.
