404 CTO Not Found → Time for Change

We believe software projects should be transformative, not traumatic. Yet every week we meet founders who share the same painful story: “We spent six months and $187,429.13 on development, and all we got was a mess of technical debt and missed opportunities.”

The traditional solution? Hire a CTO. But that’s like buying a plane when you need a pilot - an expensive asset that might not match your actual needs. And the alternative? Crossing your fingers and hoping your development team makes the right strategic decisions. (Spoiler alert: hope isn’t a strategy.)

We envisioned something different. Imagine having a seasoned technical leader in your corner, someone who’s navigated the complex waters of scaling systems and leading engineering teams. Someone who shows up exactly when you need them - whether that’s reviewing architectural decisions, evaluating vendors, or planning your technical roadmap.

This isn’t just about avoiding mistakes (though we’re pretty good at that). It’s about unlocking possibilities. It’s about having the confidence to say yes to big opportunities because you know your technology can scale with your ambitions.

That’s why we created Eval 42. We’re not just technical advisors - we’re partners in your vision, bringing battle-tested expertise to your biggest technical challenges. No more compromising between cost and quality. No more choosing between expertise and agility.
