Big tech decision coming up? Talk it through with me first.

Which platform to pick, whether a vendor's quote is fair, how to structure a project before you hire anyone: these are the calls that cost the most to undo. I've spent nearly a decade in software engineering, and I'd rather you make them with good information than find out six months in.

Who this is for: a founder, director or small team about to spend real money on technology, with nobody technical in house. Not for hands-on build work; that is the Fractional Technical Partner listing, from $2,500 a month.

What you get each month: two 45-minute calls whenever you want them, a written recap of what we decided after each call, a written review of up to three documents (a vendor quote, a proposal, a spec or the technical scope of a contract), and replies to messages within two business days.

How it works: you book the calls when a decision comes up; unused calls don't roll over. Between calls, send what you need checked over Contra messages or email. Month to month, cancel any time.
