For early-stage tech founders with no time
Ship faster with a fractional CTO + execution team.
Startup Teams helps you go from idea → MVP → traction with product strategy, engineering execution, and ops — without the overhead of building a full team on day one.
- Week 1: define the MVP + roadmap + risks
- Weeks 2–6: build + iterate + ship
- Ongoing: tighten ops, hire, and scale delivery

FAQ
How is this different from a dev agency?
We’re designed to own the critical path with founder-level accountability — not just “deliver tickets.”
What do you need from me?
Fast feedback, access to customer insights, and 1–2 short syncs per week. Everything else can be async.
Do you work with existing teams?
Yes. We can join as fractional leadership, stabilize delivery, and help the team ship with clarity.
Can you help with hiring?
Yes. We can define roles, run technical screens, and build onboarding so new hires ramp quickly.
