The Coretus Standard

Vendor Neutral

We do not accept kickbacks from cloud providers. We recommend what is best for your P&L, not our partnerships.

Engineers, Not Career Consultants

Our advisors still write code. We understand implementation details, not just slide-deck theory.

Absolute IP Security

All strategic blueprints and audit reports are 100% your legal property from day one.

Advisory FAQs

How is this different from a full-time CTO?+
You get 100% of the strategic expertise at 20% of the cost. Ideal for ventures that need high-level direction but don't yet have the scale to justify a $300k+ annual salary.
Can you help with M&A technical due diligence?+
Yes. We act as your neutral technical representative, auditing acquisition targets for technical debt, security vulnerabilities, and scalability.
