Agencies and studios win work that needs a senior engineer they don't have free this month. Partner capacity puts an experienced fractional CTO on your project under your delivery process: an express audit, an architecture decision, a migration plan or a rescue, without a permanent hire.
Best for: solo founders with a vibe-coded MVP · seed startups without a CTO · scale-ups after a funding round · investors needing a quick technical audit · CTOs who want an outside second opinion.
Selected cases from these experts’ profiles.
Founders preparing to raise, and investors evaluating a company, need an unbiased technical picture fast. One of our experts runs a one-week express audit: the client picks focus areas (security, compliance, infrastructure cost and reliability, development practices, UX), the expert gets read-only access under NDA, and after a week delivers an actionable report and walks through what to tackle first. Deeper audits and help with fixes follow if needed.
A non-technical founder vibe-coded an MVP that got early interest, but features break each other, some pages are slow, and nobody can answer "is it secure?".
A short audit of code, data model, security and infrastructure; then set up continuous delivery, tests where they give the most confidence, and error plus uptime monitoring, and decide what to keep.
An audit report and a stabilization plan, plus advice on whether to look for a technical cofounder, a full-time CTO or a fractional one.
Teams that deploy daily can't take the site down for schema changes, yet adding, renaming or dropping a column can break the old app version still running during a rolling deploy. One of our experts uses a phased approach on their projects: each migration is split so the running version always stays compatible with the new schema, with extra care for heavy operations on large tables. Their teams roll out schema changes without downtime as routine.
A team argues about test pyramids and coverage targets while bugs still reach production and the suite gets slower.
Look at which bugs the tests catch and which escape, measure suite speed, and rebalance unit, integration and end-to-end tests per feature for the most confidence at reasonable speed and effort.
