Frequently asked
Honest answers, in advance.
What this isn't
We're not on-call. We're not a chatbot dressed up as a human. We can't write your app for you. We won't pretend your idea is great if it isn't. You won't get a CTO — you'll get a slice of one, and we'll be honest about which slice.
Questions
- What does €30/month actually get me?
- Access to a slice of a senior engineer's week. You can ask questions, send a piece of code or an architecture for a second opinion, or book a small review. Your questions and the answers go into a library other members can search — yours grows it, theirs grows yours.
- How fast will someone respond?
- Within two working days for most threads. We're not on-call, and we won't pretend to be. If something is genuinely urgent, that's what the Tomorrow package is for.
- What's the Tomorrow package?
- A focused one-off session, €300, bookable today for tomorrow. You bring something specific — a hosting architecture to review, a codebase to read, a stack decision to weigh, a pre-launch sanity check — and you get an engineer's full attention on it. Not in five minutes, but really there, tomorrow, for real.
- Why Nano?
- Because you're not getting a CTO. You're getting a slice of one — a small, real piece of senior engineering attention. We'd rather name it for what it is than oversell it.
- Who's behind this?
- Skadi Oy — a small studio in Helsinki, Finland. We build small, careful tools, and we like working with people who actually use what they build.
- When can I actually sign up?
- Pilot is open now. We've taken on our first customer and we're recruiting a small next cohort. Drop your email and we'll write within 24 hours — we'll ask what you're building and whether you'd like to start as a paid pilot now or wait for general membership later this year.
- What's a pilot customer?
- Someone who joins now, while we're still small enough that you'll know exactly who's on the other end of every reply. You pay the standard rates. In exchange, you get a tighter loop with us than later members will — and the library grows from your questions first.
- Can I expense this through my employer?
- Most members do. We'll send a proper invoice with VAT details. If your finance team needs anything specific on the invoice, ask once and we'll set it up.
