Still, if you’re a business leader and your developers haven’t asked you these questions, look for a Fractional CTO to help navigate the critical early stage of development. Are there other founders, business leaders, partners, or administrators? Do you have a custom algorithm or other technology?

His goal was to find a programmer who would come in as an early partner and work as an Equity-Only Developer. Ask a few CTO type people. Or ask me Free Startup CTO Consulting Sessions. Deep algorithms? The grind is too much and too long if it gets beyond that size. What do you do if you don't know the size?
