You're still doing manually what a system should handle.

Launch projects are scoped based on what needs to get built. The goal is always to get you to market for less than a traditional build by cutting scope down to what actually matters. A typical software shop might quote $10,000 to $15,000 for a product we'd target getting live for $5,000 to $6,000. You spend less, launch faster, and iterate from real feedback instead of guessing upfront.

Orbit is $500 per week for one dedicated day. The first month is $2,000 upfront, which locks in the engagement and covers the onboarding period. After that, it's $500 every Monday. Simple and consistent. If you need more than one day a week, additional days are available at a 10% discount.

If budget is extremely tight right now, we're probably not the right fit yet. If you have capital to invest and a real problem to solve, let's talk.

Custom software: web apps, mobile apps, internal tools, automation, AI integrations, business systems. I work best directly with the founder or owner, the person who has the vision and the authority to make decisions. This is a partnership, not a contractor relationship. I'm not looking to join your team and take direction from a manager. I'm looking to work alongside the person who owns the business and help them build something together.

No. Most of my best clients have no technical background at all. You bring the business knowledge and the vision. I handle everything technical: the decisions, the building, the maintenance. You don't need to understand how it works going in, and by working with me, you will. Part of what I do is translate the technical side into plain language, document it, and make sure you always know what we have, why it works the way it does, and what it would take to change it.

I start with a call to understand your situation and figure out if we're a good fit. If we move forward, we align on scope: what the product actually is, what's in, what's out, and what success looks like at launch. Then we kick off with Launch: moving fast, cutting everything non-essential, and getting something real into the market. You get a working product faster and at a lower cost than a traditional build, with real user feedback to guide what comes next.

From there, most clients transition into Orbit. I shift from sprint mode to a steady weekly rhythm, building out the roadmap, shipping features, handling bugs, and keeping the product healthy over time. You stay involved in priorities and direction. I handle the technical execution. The longer we work together, the more effective we get, because I already know your codebase, your business, and what you're trying to accomplish.

Not much, but not zero. In Orbit, we do a 30-minute sync at the start of each dedicated day. That's the main recurring ask on your time. You review progress, share what's on your mind, and set priorities for the week. Beyond that, I work independently.

You can send requests, questions, or updates any time through our project management system. Outside of genuine emergencies, I process those on your dedicated day. Not before. That's how I make sure every client gets focused, uninterrupted attention on their day. You'd want the same standard applied to you.

What makes this work is that we both have skin in the game. I'm looking for a partner who cares how this turns out, not a client to manage. That means staying engaged, communicating openly, and trusting each other to handle our respective sides.

Reach out. Off-hours availability for emergencies is part of the Orbit arrangement. I'll respond within 24 hours, usually faster. If it's a quick fix, I handle it at no extra charge. If it amounts to a significant chunk of work, we pull those hours from your next dedicated day and work through it then. You're never left waiting for a Thursday to find out your site is down.

Generally, no. My best work happens when I'm the technical authority: the person setting direction, making recommendations, and owning the outcomes. That's hard to do when there's already a team in place with their own processes, tools, and rules.

If you're looking for a contractor to plug into an existing team and take direction from a project manager, I'm not the right fit. If you're looking for someone to lead the technical side of your business while you focus on everything else, that's exactly what this is. I'm not here to become an employee or a permanent part of your org. This is a high-trust working partnership, and it works best when we're both clear on that from the start.
