Pilot Projects is a fully managed build team — product, engineering and QA — that takes founders from discovery to a live product. And we build ventures of our own.
Most founders don't need another opinion. They need a technical team that ships — and stays accountable for what gets built.
We embed as your product, engineering and QA team — owning delivery from the first discovery call to a live, working product. Not a handover doc. The actual thing.
See how to start →We start and back companies on the same workbench — and partner with founders who want a technical team in the room from day one, not just a cheque.
Pitch a venture →Not recommendations you have to go execute. We staff engineers, PMs and QA who've shipped this before and hand back working product — your team trained on it.
Idea to working product — validated, designed, built and shipped on your timeline.
Find the bottlenecks, automate the manual work, scale without adding headcount.
Custom agents and automations that do the repetitive work end to end, reliably.
Production-grade systems built to scale — not to demo and then fall over.
A PM-led team running discovery, sprints and releases — on your clock, not ours.
Dedicated QA across every release so what ships actually works, every time.
We build on our own AI agents and battle-tested boilerplate libraries, so you're not paying us to write what's already written. More of your budget goes to the parts that are actually unique to you.
The result: a typical MVP that takes another agency three months takes us six weeks — without cutting corners on quality or architecture.
No day rates on this page — those live in the proposal. Here's the shape of how we work.
Defined deliverable, defined price. We scope the MVP together, agree the spec, and deliver it. You know the number before we start.
An ongoing build cadence — monthly. We run sprints, ship continuously, and adapt as the product evolves. Your team on tap without the hire.
For the right venture, we take skin in the game instead of — or alongside — a fee. We're selective, but it's on the table for the right fit.
We do our best work with founders who come through people we know and trust. If you have a connection inside one of these teams, ask them for an intro — it's the shortest path to a real conversation.
No connection? The venture form is always open. Tell us what you're building — that's all we need to start.
Got a product to build or a venture to pitch? Drop us the details and we'll come back within 48 hours. No deck required.
We'll reply within 48 hours — usually faster, occasionally from a strange time zone.
A distributed team spanning North America to Asia — across eight cities, four continents, every major time zone. The sprint never stalls waiting for morning.
Start with a warm intro or send us what you're working on. Either way, you'll be talking to the people who'll build it — not a sales team.
