A prototype you built yourself; a contractor's proposal on your desk; a feature that quietly broke. Before you commit another $50,000 — an independent read from someone who earns nothing from the decision to "keep building."
Why this works
I see the hidden risks in your IT projects and turn complexity into confident decisions — from the first idea to a working result.
In Cursor, v0, Lovable or a similar AI tool you've made something that already works. First paying users, a few features in flight — and a growing sense the foundation might not hold, though you can't confirm it. You don't need a developer right now. You need someone who'll tell you straight: what's solid, what will crumble under load, and what it really takes to reach a reliable launch.
Prices from $45K to $120K for what sounds like the same project. One contractor confident, two vague, all three convincing. Without a technical eye it's nearly impossible to tell which price is honest, which is padded, and which grows 40% the moment you ask for a change. I read those proposals the way the contractors wrote them — and turn that into a clear recommendation.
Not a slide deck. Not a "framework." Five things your team can act on the morning after our final call.
Your code, a contractor's proposal, or a feature — what holds, what doesn't, in priority order. No jargon you have to Google.
"This contract clause will cost you ~$8K in month 3" — not "this is something to consider." Numbers attached where I can attach them.
Build from scratch vs. buy ready-made. Rewrite vs. patch. Contractor A vs. contractor B. Each option scored on the criteria that actually matter to your business.
Written so it makes sense to non-technical readers — co-founders, board members, finance — without me having to be in the room.
Real questions answered live. Not a message thread that goes cold by Friday.
The end value isn't the report — it's knowing exactly what to do next:
Saving us both a wasted first call.
A code review tells you whether code is well-written. This tells you whether the project decision is well-made. Different question, different answer. If you also need a code review, I can point you to specialists who do that better than I would.
That happens — and it's a useful answer too. You walk away with documented confidence that the path you're on holds. Most founders who pay for an outside read are actually looking for exactly that: the right to commit, with someone independent on record saying it checks out.
Yes. A mutual NDA template within 24 hours of your request. Nothing from your project enters my content, my communications, or another conversation without your written approval.
