What I do

Built for how you work. Better every month.

Most businesses pay for a stack of software that only half fits. I build the tool that fits exactly, ship it quickly, and keep it maintained and improving, so you're not stuck on someone else's roadmap.

Replace software you barely use

Your own tool, not another subscription

Paying per seat for a CRM, scheduler or portal when you only use a fraction of it? I'll build the part you actually use, shaped to how you work.

App takeover & upgrades

Previous developers moved on? I'll get access sorted, review the code, fix what's fragile, and keep shipping improvements.

Lead follow-up & scheduling

Reply to every inquiry in minutes, answer common questions, and book calls straight onto your calendar.

Paperwork & data entry

Invoices, intake forms, quotes and contracts read automatically, with the details sent where they belong.

Reports & dashboards

Daily or weekly summaries, reminders and status updates, so you know what needs attention without digging.

New things with AI

Tools that read, sort, draft and answer for your team, or an assistant that knows your documents and pricing. Ideas off-the-shelf software can't do. English and Spanish.

Paying for software you barely use?

Let's see what we can replace.

On a free 30-minute call I'll look at your tools and your week, and point out what I'd build or replace first. No strings attached.

Why fractional

Stop renting software that doesn't fit.

Off-the-shelf tools charge you every month for features you never touch. A custom tool does exactly what you need and can cost less over time.

Off-the-shelf software

Fine for standard needs
  • Per-seat fees that grow every year
  • Paying for features you never use
  • Your process bends to fit the software

Agency or freelancer

Good for one-off projects
  • Builds what's asked, then moves on
  • No one maintains it after launch
  • Knowledge leaves when the project ends

Fractional developer

Built for growing businesses
  • Ships what you need fast, then stays to maintain it
  • Built for how you work, with no per-seat fees
  • Uses AI to do things off-the-shelf tools can't
  • One person who knows your systems inside and out
FAQ

Questions, answered.

What is a fractional software developer?

A developer who works for your business part-time, on an ongoing basis, instead of as a full-time employee. I build the software you need quickly, maintain it, and keep improving it, for a fraction of what a full-time hire costs.

Can you really replace software we pay for?

Often, yes. Many businesses pay for big platforms but only use a few features. If a custom tool would fit better and cost less over time, I'll build it. If the off-the-shelf tool is the better deal, I'll tell you that too.

How fast can you build something?

Most clients have a working first version in days to a few weeks, depending on scope. I use AI throughout my build process, which is how one developer ships this fast. Then I keep improving it based on how your team actually uses it.

Do I need to be a tech company?

Not at all. Most of my work is with businesses that aren't technical: construction, real estate, finance, professional services. If your team spends hours on repetitive work, there's usually a tool worth building.

How does pricing work?

The first call is free. On that call we'll talk through what you need and figure out a plan that makes sense for you and your business: usually a first build, then ongoing maintenance and improvements sized to how much you need. We can adjust it as your business changes. No long-term contracts.

What happens after the tool is built?

I stay on. I fix issues, keep everything updated and secure, and make changes when your business does, so the tool doesn't go stale or break when someone leaves.

Can you take over an app another developer built?

Yes. I'll help you get ownership of the code, hosting and accounts, review what's there, and take it from there: fixing, improving and maintaining it.

Do you work remotely?

Yes, I work with clients wherever they are, over video calls and the tools your team already uses. If you're nearby, I'm happy to meet in person too.

¿Trabajas en español?

Sí. Trabajo en español e inglés, y puedo crear herramientas y asistentes para equipos y clientes bilingües.

Yes. I work in Spanish and English, and can build tools and assistants for bilingual teams and customers.
