Fractional CTO in Atlanta,
with the engineers attached.
The senior leader who owns your product’s technical decisions, and the software developers who write the code. One team, one contract, built for a product that has to pass an enterprise review before anyone signs.
The problem
You have a product to build.
We bring the leaders and devs to build it.
And in Atlanta, your first serious customer is an enterprise.
Two ways that goes wrong, and most products manage both at once.
You build the wrong thing.
You build it the wrong way.
We are not just a dev shop.
Your CPO figures out what should be built. Your CTO makes sure it is built the right way. Your CIO handles the systems, security, and infrastructure behind it. And the development team comes with them.
Chief Product Officer
Chief Technology Officer
Chief Information Officer
One team. Senior leadership, product strategy, technology, infrastructure, and the developers to actually build it.
Three steps to
a product that works.
Product strategy
Before anyone writes code, we get clear on what you are building, who it is for, and whether it is worth building at all.
Build
The foundation goes in first, then the product gets built in short cycles you can actually see.
Pilot
Real users, not a demo. This is the step most partners skip, and it is the one that tells you the truth.
You get both,
A Chief Product Officer
A Chief Technology Officer
A Chief Information Officer
A project manager running the work week to week, and senior engineers on the tools. Over fifty of them, directed by the three above rather than left to interpret a specification, which is the difference between a team producing output and a team producing a product.

What it costs
What it costs,
both ways.
A product needs three kinds of senior leadership: someone deciding what to build, someone deciding how it gets built, and someone making it run safely in the cloud. Here is what each route costs, with nothing held back.
$1.1M to $1.65M
What senior product and technology executives cost per year once you count salary, bonus and stock. That is before the four to six months it takes to find them, and before stock you cannot get back if it does not work out.
From $10,000 a month
That is where it starts and everything is inside it: senior product and technology leadership, a project manager running delivery, and the engineers writing the code. Nothing is billed separately, and you can stop when the product no longer needs it.

Fractional CTO in Atlanta, answered.
Engagements begin at $10,000 a month. Compare that with a permanent hire: Atlanta pays well for technology leadership that enterprise buyers take seriously, and that profile is exactly the one you need and exactly the one that is hard to land. Weigh the product you finish with, not a day rate. Send us the scope and we will tell you what the team should look like.
Founders selling into large, careful organisations, which in this metro usually means payments, health systems, logistics or the airlines. The common thread is that the buyer runs a procurement process and audits the product before anyone signs, so the build has to account for that from the start.
An agency builds to your specification and leaves the audit to you. Enterprise buyers in this metro do not accept that. A fractional CTO owns the decisions an auditor will question and is still there when procurement asks who made them.
Yes, and it is common here. Teams selling into enterprise often pick up contractors for one deal and end up with code nobody owns. We take responsibility for the architecture and direct the developers you already pay, which is usually faster than replacing them and always cheaper than a failed security review.
A consultant reviews what you are doing and writes it up. A fractional CTO decides how your product gets built, leads the engineers who build it, and answers for it afterwards. If nobody is doing that second job, you have bought an opinion, not a product.
We are not based in Atlanta and we will not pretend otherwise. We travel for the meetings where being in the room changes the outcome, and the rest of the work runs the way your company already runs. Our leadership is US based and works your hours.
Both, and that is the point. Over fifty senior engineers work under the same leadership you are hiring, in Python, PHP, C# and .NET, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Node.js, Swift and PostgreSQL. Leadership without a team leaves you to go and hire one.
Yes, and we will help you make the hire rather than compete with it. We write the brief, sit in the interviews, and hand over the architecture and the reasoning behind every decision. A partner who makes that handover harder is protecting their contract, not your product. Atlanta has real depth in enterprise technology leadership, so a permanent hire is a realistic path once the product justifies the salary.
No, and early is usually where this saves the most money. The decisions that cost the most to undo are the ones made in the first few months, normally by whoever happened to be available. We pick your product up wherever it is and take it from zero to one.
Yes. Diligence asks who built the technology, how it was built and whether it will hold. We help you get the answers right, and we sit in the room with you rather than handing you a document and leaving.
No. We work with startups and enterprise teams across the US. What matters far more than a shared postcode is whether somebody senior owns how your product gets built.
One conversation. You tell us what you want to build, or where your product got stuck. We tell you honestly what we would do about it and what it would take. If we are not the right team for it, we will say so.
