Your Technical Co-founder, On Demand
Stop searching. Start building.
We bring the Fractional CTO strategy and the AI studio execution you need to launch today.
The Old Way is Broken
The Co-founder Dilemma
You spend months hunting for a technical unicorn, only to hand over half your company and a C-suite salary before a single line of code is written. It's a high-stakes marriage with a stranger, where a breakup often means the death of your startup.
The Agency Trap
Traditional agencies thrive on billable hours, not your success. You get a "black box" process, inflated costs, and a codebase held hostage by complexity. When the budget runs dry, you're left with a product you can't maintain and a partner who has already moved on.
The Freelancer Chaos
You try to bootstrap with hired guns, but end up managing a fragmented team across multiple time zones. With no one owning the big picture, you become a full-time project manager, stitching together disjointed code while your actual business gets neglected.
AI Changes Everything
The Fractional Advantage
You get seasoned CTO-level strategy and product leadership—without giving up equity, paying executive salaries, or gambling on a co-founder relationship. We validate your tech decisions from Day 1.
AI-Native Execution
We've pioneered AI-augmented development workflows that deliver production-grade software at 3x the speed of traditional teams—without sacrificing quality or maintainability.
Ownership & Control
You own the code, the roadmap, and the vision. No vendor lock-in, no technical debt traps, no mysterious black boxes. We build transparent, scalable systems you can evolve.
Your Technical Partner
Hechura operates as your product studio. We handle the heavy lifting—design, development, and strategy—so you can focus on growth.
Fractional CTO
Get the strategic guidance of a seasoned CTO without the equity or salary commitment. We validate your tech stack, architect for scale, and ensure you're building on a solid foundation from Day 1.
Product Design
We don't just make things look good—we design experiences that convert. From wireframes to pixel-perfect prototypes, we create interfaces that users love and that drive your business metrics.
Studio Development
Our AI-augmented development process delivers production-ready code at 3x the speed of traditional teams. You get clean, maintainable, scalable software that you can actually own and evolve.
Example of Our Work
Vytal Voices
We took Vytal Voices from a concept to a fully operational panel management and market research platform in just months. By leveraging our AI-native studio model, we delivered a complex, enterprise-grade solution at a fraction of the cost.
What Our Founders Say
"When we decided to evolve Vytal from a market research consultancy to a platform company, we knew we needed the right development partner to turn our vision into reality. Hechura provided the technical strategy and development expertise to take us from initial concept to a fully-functional product. As our fractional CTO, they helped us make smart architectural decisions early on that set us up for scalability. Their skilled team turned our requirements into efficient code, allowing us to launch Vytal Voices on schedule. By partnering with Hechura, we were able to bootstrap our transition and still build a technically sophisticated product that is allowing us to grow rapidly today."
