Who We Work With
Built for founders,
not engineers.
You don't need a technical background to build a great company. You need a technical team that is aligned with your success, not just billing by the hour.
Who We Work With
We're selective. On purpose.
At thin margins with equity on the line, the quality of our partners matters as much to us as it does to them.
Right for Stakewell
Non-technical founder
No engineering background required

Looking for cheap outsourcing
We're not an agency. We hold equity.
Wants to own 100% forever
Equity is the model. It's non-negotiable.
Why It Works
Incentives that mirror yours.
Agencies charge the same whether your product ships or flops. We hold equity with a 4-year vest, so if you don't succeed, neither do we. That changes everything about how we work.
4-year
Equity vest
Same structure as a co-founder. We're in it for the long run.
