How "My MVP has been in planning for 6 months and we still haven't started building" Impacts PetTech

PetTech teams face unique pressure and expertise requirements

Our PetTech-Specific Approach
We combine deep PetTech industry expertise with proven problem-solving methodologies to deliver solutions that work in your specific context.
Solution Framework
An experienced fractional CTO brings the decision-making authority and technical judgment your team needs. We ruthlessly cut your 47-page spec down to a 2-page MVP definition, make confident technical architecture decisions based on proven patterns, and get your team building immediately. The secret: shipped and learning beats perfect planning every time.
For PetTech companies, we adapt this approach to account for industry-specific challenges including e-commerce, telemedicine, and more.
