Who we work with in Grosse Pointe

Built for the Grosse Pointe operatorswhose stakes are real.

The east-side concentration of closely-held family businesses and multi-generation holding companies means our most common engagement here is the quiet one: a fractional CTO retainer that sits on the cap table for years, not a splashy rebuild.

How we engage

Three ways Grosse Pointe teams bring us in.

Pre-acquisition diligence

The same 7-section assessment we run for PE operating partners — translated into line items your deal model can use.

Fractional CTO retainer

Owner-led technology leadership for Grosse Pointe mid-market and portfolio-company operators. Monthly board-ready reports, no rotating contractors.

AI-native build

Sprint-priced delivery by operators who run Claude Code, OpenClaw, and the agentic stack in production every day.

Post-merger integration

Cross-portfolio data planes, identity consolidation, vendor rationalization. Phased plan with named owners.

No retainer lock-in

Pause or cancel any month. We earn next month by delivering this one. Most clients stay multi-year because they want to.

Local to Grosse Pointe
