Fractional
Fractional Product & AI Leadership
Senior product and AI leadership without the full-time hire.
Overview
What this engagement is.
Ongoing strategic and hands-on support for companies that need someone to own the AI and product roadmap, make the build-versus-buy calls, and keep shipping. I operate as part of your leadership team on a monthly retainer.
Best for
- Growing companies with more AI opportunities than they have senior people to lead them
- Founders who need a product partner to turn vision into a roadmap and shipped work
- Teams with engineers but no one owning strategy, prioritization, and vendor decisions
You walk away with
- A living AI and product roadmap tied to business goals, not hype
- Faster shipping through clear prioritization and fewer false starts
- Institutional knowledge that stays with your team, not with a vendor
What's included
Everything in the $7,500/mo starting engagement.
- Weekly leadership working session and async availability
- Ownership of the AI and product roadmap
- Hands-on building and prototyping when it is the fastest path
- Vendor, tool, and model evaluation and negotiation
- Mentorship for your internal team on AI-native product thinking

Questions
Common questions about the Fractional.
- How is this different from hiring a consultant?
- I build. Fractional leadership here means I will write the spec, make the architecture call, and open the pull request when that is the fastest way forward, not just advise from the side.
- How much of your time do we get?
- The starting retainer covers roughly one focused day a week plus async access. Larger scopes are priced accordingly.
- Why a three-month minimum?
- Strategy work shows results over quarters, not weeks. Three months is the shortest window in which you will see the roadmap turn into shipped outcomes.
