Explore projects using these services →What does CTO advisory cover?
CTO advisory helps a business set technical direction, review architecture, and turn business goals into an engineering roadmap. Engagements can be fractional or retained, depending on the scope.
Can you help with an existing SaaS platform?
Yes. Platform architecture work covers multi-tenant foundations, permissions, APIs, integrations, and release strategy. Systems integration and legacy data migration are also available when existing products need to work together.
Do you take on hands-on development work, or only advisory and architecture?
Yes. Alongside CTO advisory and architecture, hands-on web, mobile, database, and SaaS product development are all available — building the product itself, end to end, when the engagement calls for that rather than just designing it.
What development stacks do you work in?
Laravel and Vue.js for web applications, Flutter, React Native, and Ionic for mobile, and MySQL/PostgreSQL for the multi-tenant schemas underneath — plus WordPress/WooCommerce and RabbitMQ-based microservices where the engagement calls for them.
How do systems integration and legacy data migration engagements work?
Systems integration covers connecting products that were never meant to talk to each other, including services with no exposed API. Legacy data migration is delivered with a reconciliation report rather than a one-time import, so what moved and what didn't is visible before go-live.
How does AI/ML architecture differ from self-hosted AI deployment?
AI/ML architecture and development cover the use case, data flow, model choice, evaluation, and integration into the product. Self-hosted AI deployment focuses on running the models on infrastructure you control. They can be commissioned separately or combined in one agreed scope.
What is self-hosted AI deployment?
Self-hosted AI deployment means running purpose-tuned models on your own infrastructure. The engagement focuses on the models and systems needed for your AI features, with scope agreed before work begins.
How are scope and consulting rates agreed?
Scope and rates are confirmed after a short conversation about the work. Use the contact form to describe your business, the engagement you need, and the problem you are trying to solve.
Let's build what's next
A short conversation is usually enough to find the real problem.
Send the context for your AI/ML, advisory, architecture, development, team, or integration challenge. We will agree the useful first step and the scope.
Better Technology.
