Most founders and engineering leaders reach a point where ad-hoc technical decisions stop working, but a full-time executive hire is too much, too soon. AGL Consulting packages senior technical judgment into three focused engagements built for exactly that gap.

AI Enablement Seminar

A five-day, hands-on workshop for development and product teams. Rather than a slide deck about AI in the abstract, the seminar works through real examples in your own codebase: how AI fits into the software development lifecycle, prompting techniques that produce reliable results for technical work, an overview of the Model Context Protocol for connecting AI tools to external systems, and an honest look at where current models fail. Teams leave with trained staff, bespoke tools and prompt libraries tailored to their stack, and a partial roadmap for where AI fits into their workflow next. Starting at $18,500 for the five-day engagement.

Fractional CTO

For companies that have outgrown ad-hoc technical decision-making but are not ready for a full-time executive hire. A fractional CTO engagement is embedded and accountable, not an advisory retainer: technology strategy and roadmap, architecture guidance, organizational design, executive communication with boards and investors, and technical due diligence. Engagements scale from strategic advisory (8-16 hours per month) to active leadership (20-40 hours per month) to project-based work tied to a specific initiative. Ongoing engagements start at $25,000 per month.

Workflow Automation Audit

A focused, 6-10 week engagement that maps a team's software delivery lifecycle end to end and identifies where automation will have the most impact. Sometimes the answer is a better CI/CD pipeline. Sometimes it is test automation, infrastructure as code, or release automation. Sometimes it is AI, applied where it genuinely helps rather than where it is fashionable. The output is a prioritized roadmap plus hands-on guidance implementing it, with everything documented and owned by the client's own team. Starting at $15,000 for the engagement.

Who These Are For

All three packages are built for the same underlying problem: knowing that technology could fix something, but not having anyone in-house with the seniority or bandwidth to drive it. The Seminar fits teams that want to build AI fluency themselves. Fractional CTO fits companies that need ongoing strategic and executive technology leadership. Workflow Automation fits teams with a specific, bounded delivery problem to solve.

Have something that does not fit neatly into any of the three? AGL Consulting also takes on custom engagements outside these packages, from architecture consulting to legacy system migrations, through a direct conversation about scope and fit.
