Get the technical partnership you're looking for — senior leadership, real engineers, transparent pricing — without giving away your company.
Paid partnerships by default. A rare, invitation-only equity track exists for the handful of products we truly believe in.
You know your market. You can't tell if the architecture you're being sold is right or just easy for the vendor.
Half-finished repos, missed deadlines, and no one accountable for the whole product, just the ticket in front of them.
Six-figure proposals with no breakdown, no rationale, and no way to tell what you're actually paying for.
You don't have 3–6 months to find the right technical co-founder before you can even start building.
Plus a selective, invitation-only equity track for the handful of products we truly believe in.

De-risk your idea before you build — architecture, feasibility, and a hiring plan, before you spend a dollar on development.

30 minutes to scope your problem, budget, and timeline and tell you honestly if we're a fit.
De-risk an existing codebase — code quality, security, and infrastructure reviewed before you commit to your next phase.
Monthly retainer
$4,000/per month, 10-16 hrs/week
Senior technical leadership — only for founders who already have engineering capacity in place.
Final pricing depends on scope. All three engagement types above are standard, transparent paid work — this is how virtually all of our clients work with us. No hidden equity ask, ever.
Reduced cash rate, plus equity. Extremely rare — offered to a handful of founders a year, by invitation only, and only after a completed Technical Discovery phase.
We qualify every conversation up front, so we spend our time and yours where it actually leads somewhere.
Good fit
Not a fit
We are a paid technical partner first. Every engagement begins with a paid discovery phase — a selective equity partnership exists for the handful of products we believe in each year, but it's never a shortcut around that first phase.
01 — Strategy
A fractional CTO who owns your roadmap, makes the architecture calls, and represents your technology to investors.
02 — Architecture
Stack decisions, security, and infrastructure chosen for where your product is going, not just where it starts.
03 — Delivery
Senior developers, QA, and DevOps who report to your fractional CTO and ship on a predictable cadence.
We own the technical roadmap and make the architecture decisions that determine whether your product can actually scale.
Every technical decision is tied back to your business goals and MVP priorities — not built for its own sake.
When you're ready to bring engineering in-house, we help you hire, structure, and onboard the right team.
We evaluate and manage the third-party tools, APIs, and vendors your product depends on.
AI-native delivery accelerates your build and we help you identify where AI creates real product advantage.
Ongoing oversight that catches technical debt and security risk before it becomes expensive to fix.
Investors ask hard technical questions. We make sure you have credible, defensible answers and the documentation to back them up.
Skip the sales pitch and talk directly to our CEO and CTO. Get expert insights from leaders who have scaled 100+ digital products.

Co-founder & CTO
Trusted expertise in architecture reviews, AI strategy, and building scalable, high-impact engineering organizations.
Almost never — and not instead of payment. The vast majority of our clients work with us on one of the standard cash engagements above. For a small handful of products a year that we genuinely believe in, we offer a CTO & Co-Founding track: a reduced cash rate paired with a minority equity stake, always alongside cash, never in place of it. It follows a completed Technical Discovery engagement and an internal review of your traction, team, and market — it's the exception, not the rule, and most applicants won't be a fit, which is by design.
Yes. You retain full ownership of the intellectual property, source code, and infrastructure accounts from day one — there's no vendor lock-in.
We recommend starting with the paid discovery phase, which is scoped to be accessible even at early stages. If you have no funding and no cash budget at all, we're likely not the right fit yet — but we're happy to point you toward resources that can help you get there.
You get a fractional CTO who owns the technical decisions and business alignment, not just headcount. The engineering team reports through that leadership layer, so you're not left making architecture calls you're not equipped to evaluate.
Absolutely — many clients do. We build with clean documentation and handover in mind from day one, and we'll support the transition when you're ready.
Most engagements begin within a week of the discovery call. The paid discovery phase itself typically runs 2–4 weeks before a build proposal is finalized.
No sales layer — you'll talk directly with BeeWeb's co-founders about your product and whether we're the right fit.
