Your first engineer: I make the technical calls and build the product, from the first prototype until you hire a team. $997/week.

The technical calls, then the build. Every alternative has a catch.
| Route | Covers | The Catch |
|---|---|---|
| Technical Co-Founder | Both, for a share of the company | The catch: Few take that deal, and the match must last years |
| Freelancer or Agency | The build, to a spec | The catch: Someone still writes the spec and makes the calls |
| Advisor or Classic Fractional CTO | The calls, often advice only | The catch: The build goes to someone else |
| No-Code Tools | A first test of the idea | The catch: Not enough once the product needs its own backend |
| Varstatt | Both, paid in cash by the week | The catch: One person: when I'm full, a later start date |
Eight first jobs: five paid by the week, three as one-payment weeks.
“No one makes the technical calls”: the calls and the code, every week.
“An idea nobody has clicked”: the core flow on a live link in one week, one payment.
“An idea, ready to test with paying users”: the smallest real product, launched in week 6.
“Ready to build the whole product”: launched in week 6, then built on real feedback.
“Phones, without three separate apps”: one app that installs from a link.
“An app stuck, unsafe, or left by its developer”: the bleeding stopped and a plan, in one paid week.
“A V1 that holds the product back”: V2 built beside it, until every user moves.
“A raise or a purchase on the calendar”: what diligence will find, ranked, in one paid week.
Founders who need the calls made and the product built.

A simple, predictable and transparent process that eliminates development headaches.
After subscribing, you get a dedicated task board. It becomes your roadmap.
Week one goes to the biggest unknown: the tech choice, a test build or a review of your code.
You set the order. I ship small tasks one by one.
You review the live app. I revise until you're satisfied.
You approve finished work. I move to the next priority.
You report issues anytime; I handle them first.
$997 a week, or $997 once for a one-week job. Your shares stay yours.
A technical co-founder's calls and code, paid weekly, not in shares.
Through people you've worked with, each tested on a small piece of real work first. Need the product now? Hire the work by the week and keep looking.
No. The retainer is cash by the week; your cap table stays as it is.
Everything technical before there's a team: the stack, deploys, monitoring, the first build. Here, that's me.
$997 a week; the prototype, the rescue and the due diligence read are one payment of $997 each. The free build cost tool turns your scope into weeks.
By using it: working software every few days, with a note on what needs your call. The board and repository are open to you.
Hire one. I stay as the senior engineer or hand over: access, docs, history.
You pay a week at a time, and I redo work that misses. If it still doesn't fit, cancel with no penalty.
JavaScript and TypeScript on the default stack: React, Next.js, Node.js, Firebase. For other stacks, I say no rather than learn on your dime.
Fill in the project form, about a minute. I reply the next working day; if it fits, with a first plan and a call invite.
