Let me help you with whatever you're building, or thinking about building.

I can help in a lot of ways, but first tell me where you are. You can then decide to talk to me about it more or not, it's up to you, you won't hurt my feelings.

You'll get answers you can act on. No hypotheticals, no double talk, no bullshit.

What it could be

  • The shape of it
  • Where the value is
  • The smallest proof
  • Or a reason not to

Time needed: half a day, sometimes a whole one

A plan with a number on it

  • Scope
  • Sequence
  • A number
  • What gets cut first

||.. A day, or two

Production grade
  • Auth and payments
    • done boringly, the only way worth doing them
  • Backups and monitoring
    • and somebody told when it breaks
  • Deploys that do not scare you

████░░░░░░> Two days to a couple a weeks, world is your oyster

Something you can show an investor

  • How you're set up to grow
  • How the tech holds up
  • Who to hire next
Two to five days

Security without the acronyms

What you need now, and what can wait

A day to a week

Me, in your calendar

Same time every weekThrow what you need at me
FOREVER (ISH)until you don't need me anymore (weirdly, I hope that happens)
I can be as annoying or quiet as you like!

We talk

{{IC:person:13}}Curupira Chat

Diogo has entered the room.

Diogo: Hi! I'm happy to catch up online, or here in Papamoa if you're nearby.

Diogo: No charge for a chat -- I will never turn down a coconut flat white though.

Diogo: And if during that chat it turns out I'm not the right person, I'll help you figure out who it is.

It gets done

We agree what it is
I go and do it
As much updating as you like
It is done
That third row is your call, not mine

1Half a dayA whole dayA whole week
2 A workshop, a straight answer, or a prototype small enough to fit inside one sitting. An honest review of what you've built, or a plan you can build from. Deep on one problem. Something built and shipped, or the plan plus a solid foundation for the build.
3 Diogo Freire: We'll work with your budget and, if right now you have none, I'm always keen to help you figure out options. Diogo Freire: Any of the above, on repeat. The same time every week or month, for as long as you need it. Someone who can keep things moving, who you don't have to hire, manage, or have an equity conversation with.
