Common questions
What is a fractional CTO?
A fractional CTO is a senior technology leader who works with you part-time. You get help with technical decisions, planning and hiring without paying a full-time salary.
Is TENSIX a team or one person?
TENSIX is run by one person, founder Hemal Shah. He uses AI coding and automation tools to work faster and reviews all the work himself, so you always deal with him directly.
Can I cancel?
The Growth Engine Retainer can be paused, changed or cancelled at the end of any 30-day cycle. The other plans run on a rolling monthly agreement, with notice terms agreed in writing before you start.
What counts as one engineering sprint?
A sprint is a focused block of work with a clear goal agreed at the start of the month, such as one new feature, one automation or one landing page.
Do you also do one-off code audits?
Yes. Hemal can review your code, database or cloud set-up and give you a written list of problems and fixes covering speed, security and cost. Contact Hemal for a quote.
Who owns the work done under a retainer?
You do. All code goes into your own GitHub account and runs on your own cloud accounts.
