Technical advisory
Technical advisory is a service for business owners and small teams who need trusted technical judgement without hiring a full-time CTO.
The goal is to provide clarity on technical questions and support better, lower-risk technical decisions.
What's included
- Async technical advice for ongoing questions and decision support
- Up to 6 hours per month of calls for architecture, feasibility, and technical decision-making
- Responses to async questions within 1 business day during business hours
- A primary async channel is agreed at onboarding
- Reasonable use expected.
Calls are scheduled by appointment via Google Meet or phone.
Scope
This service focuses on technical decision-making and risk reduction.
It does not replace hands-on development work, delivery ownership, or a full-time technical leader.
If you are unsure whether this service is a good fit, a short introductory call can clarify this quickly.
Engagement model
- Billed monthly in advance
- Can be cancelled at any time
Technical discovery & risk audit
Technical discovery & risk audit is a short, focused engagement for founders and teams who need clarity on technical feasibility, risks, and direction before committing to build, scale, hire, or invest.
The goal is to replace uncertainty with a clear, written assessment that supports confident technical and business decisions.
What's included
- Structured discovery interviews with key stakeholders
- Review of the product concept or current system at a technical and architectural level
- Assessment of technical feasibility, risks, and constraints
- Identification of critical assumptions and likely failure modes
- Evaluation of architecture, technology choices, and build vs. buy trade-offs
- Clear recommendations and options going forward
Deliverables
- A concise written report including:
- Executive summary
- Key findings and prioritized risks
- Feasibility assessment
- Viable technical paths with trade-offs
- Concrete next steps
- A walkthrough and Q&A call to review findings and clarify decisions
Scope
This is a bounded discovery and assessment engagement.
It does not include hands-on implementation, delivery work, or ongoing advisory support.
The outcome is clarity—not ongoing involvement.
If continued support is needed, it can be discussed separately once the assessment is complete.
Engagement model
- Fixed-scope engagement
- Typically completed within 1–2 weeks, once access to required materials is available
- Priced per engagement
- No ongoing commitment required
A discovery call is required to determine scope and fit before starting.
