    Our Story

    Dandelion Labs was born during COVID-19, when the world went remote and startups needed to move faster than ever. While everything else slowed down, founders kept dreaming — and we were there to help them build. We started as a remote-first team helping early-stage companies turn ideas into working products quickly, without the overhead of traditional agencies or the equity demands of a technical co-founder. In a time of uncertainty, we became the reliable technical partner founders needed to ke

    What Sets Us Apart

    Speed without shortcuts

    We build fast because startups can't wait — but we architect for scale so your codebase survives investor diligence and your next funding round.

    Founder-side thinking

    We've worked with enough early-stage companies to understand burn rates, pivot pressure, and investor timelines. We're not just executing tickets — we're thinking about what gets you funded.

    Pragmatism over perfection

    We know what actually matters for an MVP versus what can wait. We'll push back when you're overbuilding and move fast on what moves the needle.

    Commonly Asked Questions

    We keep it simple and founder-friendly. Discovery first. We start with a focused conversation to understand your product vision, funding timeline, and what "done" actually looks like for your stage. No lengthy onboarding processes. Clear milestones, not endless sprints. We scope work around deliverables that matter — a working demo, a launchable MVP, a feature set for investor meetings — not arbitrary two-week cycles. Direct communication. You talk to the people building your product, not account managers. Slack, quick calls, Loom videos — whatever keeps things moving without meeting bloat. Transparent progress. Regular updates, shared repos, and no surprises. You always know where things stand. Flexible engagement. Need a full build? We're on it. Need a fractional CTO to guide your existing team or sit in on investor calls? That works too. We scale to what you actually need.

    MVPs in 6-12 weeks. Depending on scope, we take a startup from concept to working product in one to three months — fast enough to hit demo days and investor deadlines. Fractional CTO support is ongoing and flexible — weekly calls, async availability, or intensive periods around fundraising. Smaller builds and iterations often ship in days, not weeks. We move at startup speed because we know runway doesn't wait.

    MVP builds for funded or fundable startups. If you've got a validated idea and capital (or a clear path to it), we'll get you to a working product investors can see and users can test. Pre-raise technical prep. Cleaning up codebases, improving architecture, or building out features before you go into diligence. Fractional CTO engagements. Technical leadership for non-technical founders — strategy, hiring guidance, vendor evaluation, investor calls, without the full-time commitment. Rapid prototypes. When you need something tangible to test an idea, pitch a partner, or validate demand — fast. We're most excited about founders building something real, working against a timeline, and ready to move.

    We keep our roster intentionally small — typically 3-5 active projects at any given time. This isn't a volume game. We'd rather go deep with a few founders than spread thin across a dozen. When we take you on, you get real attention, not a ticket in someone's queue.
