Frequently Asked Questions for Founders
How fast can you launch an MVP for our startup?
Our standard MVP delivery cycle ranges from 8 to 12 weeks from initial scoping to production launch. We commit initial working code within 48 hours of sprint kickoff, delivering bi-weekly demos so you can test features with real beta users and early design partners.
How do you ensure our software passes VC technical due diligence?
We build exclusively using industry-standard enterprise stacks: TypeScript, Next.js, Node.js, Python, PostgreSQL, and AWS/GCP infrastructure. We enforce modular repository architecture, comprehensive API documentation, CI/CD automated test pipelines, and clean dependency management that breeze through technical due diligence audits by institutional investors.
Do founders own 100% of the intellectual property and code from day one?
Yes, unconditionally. All source code repositories, design tokens, database schemas, cloud infrastructure accounts, and third-party credentials belong 100% to your company from commit zero. We enforce zero vendor lock-in and support seamless handoffs to your in-house team when you scale.
How does CookMyTech collaborate with non-technical vs technical founders?
For non-technical founders, we serve as your fractional engineering leadership, translating business goals into rigorous technical architectures, scoping tradeoffs, and budgeting token/cloud costs. For technical founders, we integrate seamlessly as senior full-stack peers who write idiomatic, high-concurrency code without micromanagement.
How do you handle scope creep and budget predictability for early-stage startups?
We work on fixed-scope, sprint-based milestone deliverables. Before writing code, we break your product into core 'must-have' features versus secondary backlog items, establishing transparent weekly sprint goals with zero hidden overhead.
