Most fractional CTOs advise. This one ships.
A fractional CTO is a senior technology leader you hire part-time instead of paying a full-time salary and equity. The usual version gives you strategy and a slide deck, then leaves you to find engineers. Bux Software's version comes with the engineering built in: Bux Khurana sets the direction, then writes, reviews and ships the code himself.
What's included
- Roadmap and technical strategy. What to build first, what to skip, and what it will really cost.
- Architecture and stack. Chosen for your product and your budget, not for a vendor's pipeline.
- Hands-on engineering. Web platforms, mobile apps, AI features and the integrations between them.
- Launch and operations. Hosting, security, monitoring, app store releases and the fixes that follow.
- Hiring and vendors. When you outgrow one person, he hires and manages the team around you.
- Founder-level reporting. A weekly demo and a plain-English update, straight to you.
Who it's for
- Non-technical founders with a validated idea and no one to build it.
- Businesses whose agency build stalled, or shipped and was never maintained.
- Startups between technical co-founders or tech leads.
- Companies that need an AI feature shipped by someone who has done it before.
How it works
- A WhatsApp chat. You describe the product. Bux tells you honestly whether he is the right fit.
- Discovery sprint. Two weeks to a roadmap, an architecture and a real estimate.
- Build in weekly sprints. Working software every week, with a demo every Friday.
- Launch, then stay on. He remains your CTO on a monthly retainer for as long as you need one.

Fractional CTO FAQ
What is a fractional CTO?
A fractional CTO is an experienced chief technology officer who works with your company part-time, usually on a monthly retainer, instead of as a full-time executive. You get senior technical leadership for a fraction of the cost and without giving up equity.
How is this different from hiring an agency?
An agency sells hours across a rotating team and hands you a deliverable. A fractional CTO sits on your side of the table, owns the technical decisions and is accountable for the outcome. With Bux Software you get the seat and the engineering from the same person.
How much does a fractional CTO cost?
Engagements run on a monthly retainer scoped to the leadership hours and build work you need. It is far below a full-time CTO's salary and equity package, and it scales up or down as the product grows. Message Bux for a quote on your product.
