I'm Emil. I build the first version of startups before the team has a CTO.
14 years of development experience. One person, direct responsibility. Can also join the cap table.
If any of these four sounds like your life, we're probably a good match.
We build a clickable prototype in 2–4 weeks. You'll get concrete evidence to back customer feedback and your investor pitch.
A working product, not a demo. User management, payments, admin panel, basic analytics. 8–14 weeks.
I act as a technical advisor. Recruitment, architecture decisions, due diligence prep, code reviews.
Pair-programming through the critical phases. I can join for weeks or months — also on a sub-contracting basis.
This is a typical schedule for a pre-seed MVP. You can start at any phase — and stop whenever you want to take the wheel yourself.
All prices exclude VAT. NDA always before the first conversation.
Prototype, MVP iteration or integration in two weeks.
Describe your idea. I'll tell you straight: what I would build, what I would leave for later, whether it's even worth starting. And if you want, we'll continue from there.
30 minutes, no sales pitch. I'll reply personally.
