Think Together · CTO Deep Dive$250 · up to two hours
Bring the question. Leave with a plan.
A CTO Deep Dive is two focused hours with Zeljko on whatever you are facing.You do not need a finished idea, a specification, or a deck. You leave with a concise action plan and a practical next step.
Paid advice · Think Together · the session is shaped by your problem
Built for unfinished situations.
The session earns its keep when the path is not obvious yet. Four situations come up most.
An idea, not yet a product
Turn a rough concept into a practical first version with a scope you can actually build in weekly cycles.
A project that stalled
Find the smallest useful step back into motion, and decide whether to continue, restart, or stop.
A decision you keep deferring
Build versus buy, where AI belongs, which architecture holds. Get an experienced read instead of another week of tabulating trade-offs.
A codebase that resists change
A technical diagnosis and a focused plan for the few changes that would make the system easier to work on.
Before, during, after.
Before
Book the session and send whatever context exists: a paragraph, a sketch, a link to the repository.Incomplete is expected. The point of the session is that you do not have it figured out yet.
During
Two hours working the problem together. Depending on what you bring, that isarchitecture questions, product planning, AI assessment, or a technical diagnosis, whatever the situation calls for.
After
You receive a concise action plan: clear recommendations and a practical next step, written down so you can act on it or share it with your team.
A plan, not a pitch for more work.
What happens next is your call. Take the plan and run with it, or come back when you want the plan built.Weekly development starts from $3,000 per week, and founders who already know what they need built can go straight to it, no Deep Dive required.
Asked and answered.
01What if I do not have code yet?
That is a normal starting point. The session works at whiteboard level as well as repository level. Bring the idea and the questions you have about it; the output is a plan for what to build first.
02How is this different from the 30-minute call?
The 30-minute call is a short, no-commitment conversation to figure out which kind of help fits. The Deep Dive is the paid working session: two hours on your problem, ending in a written action plan. If the call shows the Deep Dive is not what you need, we say so.
03What happens after the session?
Nothing automatic. You take the plan and act on it, in-house or with us. If the next step is building, weekly development runs in one-week cycles, with published pricing and a review every Friday.
Two hours. One clear next step.
