Funded Founders (Expert Scale)

Stop Hiring.
Start Calling.

No retainer. No contract. No waiting. Expert advice on demand, 24/7.

You just got out of first gear.

You just got out of first gear.

  • Legal questions you can't Google.

    Entity structure. IP protection. Term sheet terms. One wrong move costs you equity or your company.

  • Tech decisions that define your architecture for years.

    You need a CTO-level brain but you can't afford a CTO yet. Wrong choices now = costly rewrites later.

  • Hiring decisions that will haunt you for years.

    A bad hire at this stage burns runway, culture, and momentum all at once.

  • Investor updates that need to be airtight.

    Saying the wrong thing, or nothing at all, erodes trust with the people funding your next round.

  • You can't hire fast enough to keep up.

    And you definitely can't afford to get all of this wrong on a fresh raise.

Your bench of advisors, on demand.

Verified

Operator-vetted experts

Every expert is verified: licenses, certifications, professional history, 10+ years in domain with demonstrated work alongside funded startups. No self-reported credentials, no generalists who read about it.

Pre-Launched

Quality-gated before they ever talk to you

Every Protégé is tested against adversarial, edge-case questions before it goes live. If it does not meet the bar, it does not launch. Ongoing session ratings keep the bar in place after launch.
