What is a fractional CTO?

A fractional CTO is an external technical director who dedicates part of their time to your company — typically one or two days a week — instead of joining full-time. They bring senior judgment on architecture, tools, technical hiring and priorities, without the burden of a permanent hire.

It's transitional by design: it makes sense when there's a specific technical gap — pre-hiring an in-house CTO, launching a product, scaling or steadying a junior team. Once that gap closes, the engagement ends.

  • How we work

    I decide architecture, tools, hiring and priorities with you, with weekly meetings, technical supervision of your team or vendors, and async availability between sessions.

What is 1:1 AI training?

1:1 AI training for businesses is a one-to-one mentoring and coaching program for CEOs, executives and teams that want to truly understand how AI works in their company, how to apply it and how to maintain it.

It's not a group course: it starts from a diagnosis of your business and is designed to measure, working on your real processes, emails and reports until they're automated. From the basics to a first working implementation, with the judgment to continue without depending on me.

  • From basics to implementation

    Fundamentals and prompting, tools, AI process automation and AI agents — with the judgment to continue without depending on me.

  • The flagship service

    It’s the service I focus on most: designed both for executives who decide how AI is used and for SMBs and teams that want to gain productivity.

Pricing

Clear pricing, no fine print

Each service has a reference price — no open-ended quotes, no fine print. Prices are indicative and for example only: the final price is set on the first call and varies with the scope and involvement of each case. End-to-end technology consulting and full project execution are handled through CAMACODE.

How we can work together

From the first call to something that works

Three steps. Fast and precise.

  1. 01

    First call — 30 min, free

    You tell me your case, what you've tried and what's blocking you. I tell you whether I'm a fit, which service makes most sense — fractional CTO, AI training or pipeline — and a ballpark of what it would cost. No commitment.

  2. 02

    Choosing the service

    I send you a proposal with one or two concrete formats: scope, schedule and a fixed price. You decide at your own pace.

  3. 03

    Execution

    We start. You get direct access to me — WhatsApp, email — between sessions, with clear milestones so you see real progress.
