Frequently asked

What does Triminage do for founders?

Triminage runs embedded engineering engagements tailored to founders — go from deck to demo without burning the round. Every engagement comes with a written scope, weekly demos, and outcomes measured against your pre-engagement baseline.

Why should founders choose Triminage over hiring in-house?

Triminage gives founders senior engineering capacity in weeks, not quarters — and without the long-tail commitment of full-time hires. You own the IP and code from day one, and we can hand the system to your first in-house hire whenever you're ready.

How does Triminage price engagements for founders?

Fixed-fee for scoped work, time-and-materials for ongoing engagements. Triminage sends a written proposal — milestones, risks, success metrics — before any code is written, so founders can defend the spend without translation.

What outcomes does Triminage typically ship for founders?

Across comparable engagements, Triminage has delivered 6 wk mvp to design partner, −40% burn vs. in-house, 100% ip and code ownership. Reported as deltas against your pre-engagement baseline — never aspirations.

How fast can Triminage start an engagement for founders?

Most founders kick off within 1–2 weeks of a signed SOW with Triminage. Discovery and scoping typically take 3–5 business days, and you'll see working software in production within the first month.
