Architecture reviews, build-vs-buy decisions, technical due diligence and roadmapping — advice from people who also build, so it stays practical instead of theoretical.
An independent read is worth it whenever a decision is expensive to get wrong.
Every engagement ends in a written, plain-language recommendation you can act on.
An honest, structured assessment of what you have: what's solid, what's risky, what breaks first as you grow.
A clear recommendation on whether to build custom, adapt a ready-made tool, or extend what already exists — with real numbers behind it.
Independent evaluation of a system, codebase or vendor before you invest, acquire or sign a contract.
Turning a vague idea into a scoped, sequenced plan a development team can actually execute.
Ongoing access to a technical point of contact for decisions, without a full-time hire.
A second opinion on a quote or proposal you received elsewhere, before you sign.
We only recommend what we'd be comfortable executing ourselves.
Both are available, but they're separate engagements. Consulting gives you an independent recommendation first, free of pressure to sell you a specific build. If you decide to move forward afterward, you can build with us or with anyone else — the advice doesn't change either way.
Single-session reviews — architecture review, code audit, proposal review — start at $1,500. Deeper engagements, like technical due diligence, roadmapping or ongoing fractional advisory, start at $3,000 and are scoped to what you need.
Most reviews start within a few days of sharing access to what needs reviewing — a repository, documents, or a call to walk through it.
Yes, always, before looking at anything. Confidentiality is standard for this kind of work.
A written report in plain language — findings, risks and a clear recommendation — plus a call to walk through it and answer questions. Not just a deck of generic best practices.
Send over the idea, the mess you're trying to fix, or the system you already have. We answer within minutes.
