Investor-ready MVP development
Idea-to-demo MVPs for seed and pre-seed Bay Area founders in 6–10 weeks — the kind you can show a partner at a16z or Sequoia. Auth, billing (Stripe), analytics and a clean demo flow wired in from day one.
Investor-ready, agentic-AI MVPs shipped fast by senior engineers — on a follow-the-sun model that turns near-opposite clocks into overnight progress, with a daily morning overlap window. USD invoicing, clean cap table, a fraction of Bay Area in-house cost.

A product engineering partner tuned to the SF startup loop — investor-ready MVPs, agentic AI, and senior pods that extend a small founding team without blowing up burn.

Production LLM and agentic apps — RAG over your data, tool-using agents, evals and guardrails. OpenAI, Anthropic, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Pinecone and pgvector, the same stack the SF AI wave is built on.
Multi-step, tool-using agents for sales, support, document intelligence and internal automation. Planning, reflection, self-healing loops and human-in-the-loop checkpoints — shipped to a live demo URL, not a slide.
A senior CTO on tap for first-time and technical founders — architecture reviews, hiring plans, model and vendor selection, and due-diligence support through your seed and Series A raise.
Embedded senior pods (FE, BE, AI, mobile, QA) that slot into your Linear, GitHub and Slack as an extension of a small founding team. Ship more without blowing up burn rate or headcount.
When your first enterprise customers show up, we make the build audit-ready — SSO, RBAC, audit logging, encryption and a controls library you can hand to a SOC 2 auditor without re-architecting.
A predictable delivery loop built around the PST working day, a follow-the-sun build cycle, and your raise or Demo Day timeline.
30-min call in your morning overlap window. Problem, target users, the raise you're chasing, USD budget and launch date. Fixed-scope proposal in 3 business days.
2-week sprint: user flows, clickable Figma prototype, system design, model and data choices, and a sprint-by-sprint roadmap. NDA and IP assignment signed before code.
Demos in your morning overlap (their evening), with overnight progress while you sleep. Linear board, GitHub PR reviews, async Loom updates, and a senior PM owning coordination.
Public MVP or investor demo, then post-launch hardening — load tests, SOC 2 controls when enterprise lands, AI feature rollouts, and a fractional CTO for board and diligence.
We're the team Bay Area founders hire when an in-house build is too slow and too expensive, and a $200/hr SF agency would eat the seed round. Senior engineers, real agentic-AI track record, USD invoicing, and a follow-the-sun loop that ships overnight — without diluting your cap table.
“CodeLamda shipped our agentic-AI MVP in eight weeks — RAG over our docs, tool-using agents, evals, guardrails. We woke up to progress every morning and had a working demo for our partner meeting. USD invoicing, IP clean, no dilution.”
