The Challenge

Technology now drives business performance, yet many organizations operate without clear technical direction. Hiring a full-time CTO often exceeds $300,000 per year in salary and can surpass $450,000 once bonuses, benefits, and equity are included. For most companies under $200M in revenue, this level of investment is not sustainable or efficient.

Without senior leadership, teams focus on maintenance instead of innovation. Budgets expand without strategic alignment, and modernization slows. The absence of an executive-level guide turns technology from a growth driver into a cost center, creating the need for a smarter fractional CTO alternative.

The Solution

Tech Alchemy’s Fractional CTO Services replace the high fixed cost of a full-time executive with a flexible, results-driven partnership. Most organizations save more than 70 percent compared to a traditional CTO while gaining access to senior technology leadership that scales precisely to their needs.

Each engagement begins with a strategic assessment of your systems, leadership maturity, and goals. From there, we define a technology roadmap that ties every investment to measurable business outcomes. This model eliminates hiring risk and redirects capital toward modernization and growth.
