The problem

Great engineers don't make
great architecture decisions alone

$

Too expensive

Fractional CTOs charge $5K-$15K/month. Pre-seed founders can't afford that, but they need the guidance the most.

Too slow

Your CTO works business hours. Your production incident happens at 2am. By the time they review your architecture choice, you've already shipped it.

Doesn't scale

One human can advise 3-5 companies. Your startup gets a fraction of their attention, literally.

What Keel does
