Scope the first milestone
// 01

Decision snapshot

VerdictAsk us to define the first usable deliverable, named senior lead, acceptance checks and complete commitment before you book.

Wavect is best when

  • Get product judgement and senior engineering in the same engagement.
  • PromptID: AI assessment product with backend, evaluation workflows and deployment. FTW Ventures: Led an existing team through a stalled launch and handed over an editable CMS.
  • Latest paid retainer week refunded, no questions asked. Cancel future weeks without notice or exit fee. Pricing and guarantee terms

The alternative is best when

  • A fractional technical leader can cover architecture, hiring, product decisions or implementation when contracted. Compare the named remit and the evidence of relevant work.
  • Choose another proposal when its verified expertise, available capacity, required platform or procurement credentials better fit the same brief. Ask us to confirm our own fit and availability before booking.

Questions to ask before you choose

  1. Who will challenge a feature before we pay to build it?
  2. Does cash-refund protection continue after onboarding, and what amount is covered?
  3. Is the remedy money back, replacement, credit or more work, and when can we stop?

Commercial risk to watch

  • Compare the same deliverables, decision rights, third-party costs, support and exit conditions. A rate, team size or starting price does not establish the total commitment.

Evidence notes

  • Published by Wavect. Capability statements and historical delivery examples do not establish a universal quality, cost or speed advantage.

From product decision to accepted work

Ask us to own a defined product phase, workstream or fractional leadership remit, including work inside your existing team. Agree the decision rights, implementation, QA and handover upfront. We bring in appropriate experts when qualified capacity is available. Required licences, certifications and regulated professional work need explicit qualification. Explore our services, meet the experts and read the pricing and guarantee terms.
