WHAT WE CAN DO
Six ways an embedded Kodius team shows up.
We're not a marketplace of skills. Every engagement is a small, named team that owns the outcome end-to-end — these are the shapes that outcome usually takes.
Embedded product team
3–5 senior engineers, product, and design slotted into your stand-ups and your repo. We run the build for 3–9 months while you run the company.
Monthly retainer · 3–5 peopleAI-MVP rebuild
Keep what proved the idea. Rebuild the parts that need to survive paying customers — auth, schema, infra — without throwing away the speed that got you here.
Lovable · Bolt · CursorCTO continuity
Your lead engineer left. We embed a senior team that absorbs the context fast and keeps releases moving while you decide whether to rehire.
Named tech lead · day oneRuby, Elixir & modern web
Rails since 2016 and Elixir / Phoenix when concurrency matters. Svelte, React, Next.js on the front. iOS and Android when the product needs it. Stack is a tool, not the offer.
Rails · Elixir · Svelte · React · NextDevOps & product design
Infra you can sleep on. Design that doesn't need a separate vendor. Everything one team needs to own a product end-to-end.
DevOps · UX · QA automation TRACK RECORD
Ten years of shipping. Specific, boring, repeatable.
We don't chase vanity metrics. These are numbers we can defend on a reference call.

Most engagements ship the painful fix in month one and have a defendable roadmap by month three.
RETENTION
Half of our last 20 engagements extended past the original scope. The other half ended on plan, by design.
REFERENCE CALLS
Every founder on this page will pick up the phone if you ask. Most of them have, more than once.
RECENT WORK

Four founders. Different problems. One verb: shipped.
Read the full versions on Clutch — every review is verified, named, and tied to a real project.
They are very goal-oriented and they definitely get the job done. Kodius understood what we needed and delivered.
Kodius was really instrumental in building Cosmic Frog and getting the product to General Availability.
I was so impressed at their ability to understand our rather unique business.
They've been able to overdeliver for the price point and the time invested.
