INDUSTRY — STARTUPS

Common questions.

From operators in this industry.

Do you accept equity?+

For a small number of pre-seed teams we believe in deeply, we'll take 20–40% of fees in equity. Default is cash.

Are you a fit at pre-revenue?+

Yes — about a third of our startup work is pre-revenue. We size accordingly.

How does this compare to hiring contractors?+

We're a coordinated senior team. Cost is similar to hiring three independent specialists; speed is much faster.

Will you sign an NDA?+

Yes — we sign hundreds. Mutual NDA available on first call.

Are you available now?+

We run two startup sprints per quarter. Slot availability varies — first call usually within a week.
