Data-driven CTO advisory combining automated metrics collection with expert evaluation. Objective insights in weeks, not months.
Most technology assessments rely on interviews and gut feel. We pull real engineering data before forming any opinions.
We connect to GitHub, GitLab, Jira, and Azure DevOps to pull real metrics — PR cycle times, deploy frequency, sprint velocity, code coverage, and more. No surveys. No guesswork.
Our assessment tools automate what traditional firms do manually. Faster results, lower cost, and higher consistency than any Big 4 engagement.
Every finding comes with a scored priority, estimated effort, and clear ownership. You get a 30/60/90/180-day improvement plan — not a slide deck of platitudes.
Every engagement follows a proven methodology that turns engineering data into strategic decisions.
Connect to your development tools and pull real engineering data — PR cycle times, deployment frequency, sprint velocity, code coverage, security scan results.
Senior technology advisors assess architecture quality, team structure, security posture, AI readiness, and organizational maturity — informed by data.
Every dimension scored on our Technology Maturity Framework (1-5 scale) with weighted categories, industry benchmarks, and clear gap analysis.
Prioritized 30/60/90/180-day improvement plan with specific initiatives, effort estimates, success metrics, and ownership assignments.
From one-time assessments to ongoing CTO advisory, every engagement is backed by data and delivered by senior practitioners.
Comprehensive, data-driven evaluation of your technology organization across seven critical dimensions. Automated metrics + expert evaluation + scored framework + actionable roadmap.
Deep-dive security evaluation covering 8 domains and 40+ controls, mapped to SOC 2, NIST CSF, ISO 27001, and CIS benchmarks. Prioritized remediation with risk ratings.
Evaluate your organization's readiness to adopt and scale AI across data infrastructure, technology, talent, strategy, governance, and operations. Use case identification and phased investment plan.
M&A-focused technology evaluation for PE firms and corporate development teams. Architecture, code quality, team risk, security, data assets, and integration cost estimation.
Ongoing strategic technology leadership. Monthly advisory sessions, quarterly assessment refreshes, architecture review, team coaching, vendor evaluation, and board reporting. All backed by continuous metrics monitoring.
We work with companies where technology is the business — and the leaders who are accountable for it.
Every package includes automated metrics collection, scored assessment framework, and executive-ready deliverables.
Security assessments, AI readiness, due diligence, and retainer advisory priced separately. Contact us for custom scoping.

A fractional CTO is a senior technology executive who provides strategic engineering and product leadership on a part-time or retainer basis. You get C-level guidance on architecture, security, AI strategy, and team scaling without the $300K–$400K cost of a full-time hire. Jimmlr's fractional CTO advisory runs $5,000–$15,000 per month.
Jimmlr technology assessments range from $5,000 for a one-week diagnostic to $15,000 for a comprehensive three-week engagement with security and AI-readiness modules. Specialized security assessments, AI readiness, and technical due diligence are scoped separately.
Most assessments are delivered in one to three weeks. Automated metrics collection from tools like GitHub, Jira, and Azure DevOps lets us move far faster than traditional consulting firms that rely on manual interviews.
Technical due diligence evaluates a target company's architecture, code quality, engineering team and key-person risk, security posture, data assets, AI readiness, and post-acquisition integration cost. Every finding is risk-rated and tied directly to deal impact and the investment thesis.
Traditional assessments rely on interviews and judgment. We connect to your engineering tools first and pull real metrics — PR cycle times, deploy frequency, sprint velocity, code coverage — then layer expert evaluation on top. The result is objective scoring instead of opinion.
