About this service
Early-stage and non-technical companies often need a CTO’s judgement long before they can afford one. A fractional CTO gives you that judgement for a set number of hours a month.
What the hours are used for
- Technical roadmap and architecture decisions
- Reviewing the work and estimates of your developers or vendors
- Hiring: role design, interviews, offers
- Engineering process: code review, releases, environments, incident handling
- Security and data-protection basics
- Explaining technology to your board and investors
How it works
Hours are booked as calls and async reviews through your project page and logged against each task. Monthly plans are prepaid one period at a time and never renew automatically; unused hours in a period don’t roll over, but are refunded if you cancel. The role is advisory: you keep decision-making authority, and it is not employment.
How it works

Questions about Fractional CTO
Can you manage our developers day to day?
Within the hours, we can run weekly check-ins and review work. Day-to-day management needs a full-time lead; we can help you hire one.
Is the same person involved every month?
Yes — continuity is the point. The person assigned to you is named in your first session.
When does the delivery time start?
When we receive your brief, after payment. Delivery times count working days (Monday to Saturday). If we need something from you, the clock pauses until we have it.
Does the monthly plan renew automatically?
No. You pay for one prepaid period at a time and we never charge you automatically. We email an invoice 5 days before the period ends; the service continues only if you pay it.
What if none of the packages fit?
Request a custom plan. We’ll send a written quote with the scope, price, timeline and milestones. There’s no obligation — you only pay once you accept it.
How do I pay, and can I get a refund?
Pay securely with Raast QR, JazzCash or Easypaisa — you approve the payment in your own app and get a receipt straight away. If you cancel before work starts you get a full refund; after that, our Refund Policy explains how work in progress is handled.
Need something different?
Tell us what you need. We’ll reply with a written quote — scope, price, timeline and milestones — and you only pay once you accept it.
