Product clarity
Focus on the features that actually move your funnel. We map requirements to measurable outcomes before you commit engineering time.
Advisory & Services
Move fast without breaking trust
Hands-on advisory for founders building privacy-critical products. We help you decide what matters now, build a technical plan you can defend, and keep quality high while shipping at startup speed.
Shipping discipline
Pair speed with engineering hygiene. Get sprint rhythms, code standards, and review guardrails sized for founding teams.
Privacy foundations
Design data flows that earn trust from day one. We validate architecture and compliance paths for regulated or sensitive workloads.

Team enablement
Level up your builders with repeatable rituals. We install lightweight processes that unlock velocity without adding bureaucracy.
- Fractional staff meetings, retro templates, and engineering scorecards
- Mentorship for emerging leads and senior ICs
- Hiring plan support spanning role design to interview loops
AI & memory strategy
Extend your product with responsible AI flows. From data curation to retrieval evaluation, we help you choose the right approach.
- Model selection and evaluation frameworks tuned to your use case

- Launch runbooks that document safety boundaries for your team
Engagement models
Choose the cadence that matches your moment. Every model includes async collaboration, crisp documentation, and a clear plan for what happens next.
Fractional partnership
Weekly operating cadence embedded with your leadership team. Ideal when you need senior product and engineering judgment without a full-time hire.
- 3–6 month runway with weekly working sessions
- Co-created roadmap, OKRs, and risk register
- On-call async support for unblockers between sessions
Intensive sprint
A focused 2–4 week engagement to unblock a launch, integration, or investor deliverable. We dive deep, ship with you, and document the path forward.
- Discovery workshop to scope risks and success criteria
- Paired execution with daily stand-up touchpoints
- Post-sprint runbook outlining next steps and owners
Strategic review
An audit-style engagement that results in a clear brief you can hand to your team or investors. Great for due diligence or pre-fundraise preparation.
- Assessment across product, architecture, delivery, and privacy posture
- Prioritized recommendation stack ranked by impact and effort
- Executive-ready summary plus detailed implementation appendix
How engagements run
A clear cadence keeps everyone aligned and ensures momentum. Expect momentum in the first week and an exit plan before we wrap.
Step 01
Align
Understand context, constraints, and what success looks like.
We meet founders, product, and delivery leads to capture goals, risks, and existing assets. Expect structured discovery sessions and a shared brief within the first week.
Step 02
Co-design
Produce the plans, models, and rituals that unlock momentum.
We collaborate live and async to sketch architectures, pick tooling, and define rhythms. You get tangible artefacts sized for your team—not a slide deck destined for a shelf.
Step 03
Ship
Partner on execution so the plan lands in production.
From sprint reviews to privacy checkpoints, we stay in the loop until the work ships. We pair with your team, provide feedback on PRs, and unblock decisions in real time.
Step 04
Transfer
Leave your team with confidence and clear next steps.
Every engagement closes with documentation, metrics, and an optional follow-up cadence. We make sure your team owns the outcomes and knows how to keep improving.
